Sure, here's the translation:

"Question briefly:"

How complicated is it to replace the timing chain? Does the engine actually need to be removed for this? Is there no service position available?

Perhaps it's possible to do if you only remove the transmission, but it would probably be easier to remove the entire engine.

What a hassle. Remove the front

, take out the engine, and put it back in }.

Who on earth came up with this contraption?

For VR engines, starting in 1991, the timing chain was positioned at the rear.
