Definitely gear driven (Zippy post him the manual link willya?).....although the 3.0 Terrano with the later Patrol engine is chain driven.

If you didn't already know, the 2.7 diesel (without turbo) was used in the Fairway black cab which regularly did 400k-500k miles in everyday use....so its pretty much unbreakable!

As you search the forum, you'll see that apart from the odd MAF problem or diesel leak, we never see engine problems as such on here...
