Find an independent who can do it. Engine removal not necessary. When done - enjoy another 250km!

A suspect crankshaft sensor can also cause issues. Cheap enough to replace.

Has your chain been definitely confirmed that it is stretched?

If it hasn’t jumped a tooth then do the following before drinking the Kool Aid and replacing the timing chain.

Replace your timing chain tensioner, along with the top 2 chain guides and the 2 cam timing solenoids which can be done with the cam covers removed.

Get the cams retimed whilst your there and your problem will be solved.
