Timing Belt Replacement Service
What is the Timing Belt?
The timing belt is a vital component inside internal combustion engines that is responsible for synchronizing the moving parts. Your engine’s intake valves must open and close at the perfect time so that every cylinder has perfectly timed intake and exhaust strokes. This makes the timing belt important if you want a reliable vehicle and a good driving experience. If the timing belt develops a problem but remains in action, you will have detectable symptoms and risk some damages; however, if the timing belt fails altogether, your vehicle will likely have internal damage and won’t be able to move at all.
Signs of a Faulty Timing Belt
A faulty timing belt will generally have one or more warning symptoms signaling a need for replacement service. Although we recommend timing belt replacement service at the recommended service intervals, it is possible that your timing belt might need replacement service sooner if it has become faulty. If you have any of these signs of a timing belt issue, we strongly encourage you to have it inspected and replaced as needed:
- The engine will not start
- Engine running rough
- Vehicle shaking more than normal during idle
- Check engine light for misfire condition
- Squealing sounds
- Knocking, ticking, or clicking sound in the engine
