Timing belt explained
The timing belt is the part that runs the motor and keeps everything in time. If it is to fail or break, it will usually cause serious engine damage. This can also happen from incorrect fittings. Each manufacturer varies when they recommend timing belt replacement.
Not every car has a timing belt, some have a timing chain which does not usually have a specified replacement time. It is becoming a more common occurrence for timing chains to require replacement which can be far more expensive than a timing belt.
When it comes to timing belt replacements, what is needed on your specific car depends on the model of the vehicle and how many kms it has travelled. Ideally we recommend to replace the timing belt kit with the water pump especially when it is run by the timing belt. Many manufacturers will only state to replace the belt alone but we believe it’s best done together to future proof your vehicle.
When you visit our team to inspect your timing belt, we’ll inform you of everything you need to know before you make a booking. There is nothing worse than collecting your vehicle and getting a nasty shock with a bill double the price of the original estimate. You won’t need to worry about that with us.
