It's very expensive to change the timing chain on an N47 engine; I wouldn't bother because BMW did make improvements from 2007 and on and it's very unlikely to break. Yes, it's scary but the chances of it breaking are quite slim, even though the press reports make it sound like a certainty.

Drive it and be happy!
