Hyundai Santa Fe Have a Timing Belt or Timing Chain?
I am currently an Azera owner, and it is the best car that I have ever owned. I am about to replace my 97 Subaru Outback, and I am looking at the 2008 Santa Fe. Using the search feature here, I see that older Santa Fe's had timing belts. Since my Azera (3.8 L engine) has a timing chain, I am curious - can anyone tell me if the 2.7 or the 3.3 Santa Fe engines have a timing belt or a timing chain?

The mpg difference is negligible between the two engines, but the 3.3L definitely has more power and flexibility, especially if you are hauling a trailer or boat. Others have expressed they would have rather got the 3.3L V6 after the fact.
