I'd bet on it going "CRUNCH!" It has a 10.5:1 mechanical compression ratio, which doesn't leave a lot of clearance space, and the valve notches on the pistons don't look that deep to me.

Is there a service recommendation for replacing the chain?

Owners manual says to replace at 160,000kms and i now have over 200,000kms
If i were going to keep the car i'd be thinking replacement but i'm hoping to trade it in for a newer Toyota in the next month or so.
