I've been told today by a mechanic that my timing chain is on its way out. It's an X reg 1.0 and it's only done 36k. Only symptoms are the ones described in this thread:

Is this likely? Thought the problem would be the catalytic converter so he had a quick look under the car, then had a quick look under the bonnet. He asked me to start the engine and rev it gently, and then he gave me that conclusion.
What are the signs of the timing chain going? I only really have poor idle and an O2 sensor fault code.
Thanks.
