Timing Chain for Citroen C5 Aircross: Anodised Aluminium
This timing chain for the Citroen C5 Aircross is specified around anodised aluminium, which decides how it behaves in service far more than the part name does. We build to a written specification — base material, dimensions, finish and packing — and hold that specification on file so every reorder reproduces the approved piece.
The usual reason a programme changes supplier is not unit price. It is premature wear on the first batch, or documentation that arrived after the container shipped. Both are specification problems, and both are preventable.
