As Pete says, they never need changing BUT... Its been mentioned on here several times the guides are weak so they do often have problems!

As Haylands said there is no interval however they do have issues with broken plastic timing chain guides. If it rattles it's usually the broken guides that are causing it (or failed tensioner), checked by dropping the sump and looking for plastic bits in the pan. If it's quiet then don't worry.

Thanks everyone I figured the chain made a difference but first time off a belt (since before OHC ) I thought it best to ask
