What to Know
To function safely and efficiently, your auto’s internal combustion engine must open and close its intake and exhaust valves precisely in relation to the pistons. If the timing is off, one metal part may bang against another, creating severe damage or even catastrophic engine failure. Clearly, either of these are very expensive problems. To ensure proper operation, many vehicles use a timing belt. This is a tough rubber component with teeth instead of the timing chain found in some models. The belt’s teeth fit like puzzle pieces with the cogwheels of the camshafts and crankshaft, ensuring they work in unison. Although the timing belt is durable, it doesn’t last forever. The teeth are likely to wear down, and the rubber itself may give way. Typically, according to the automaker’s recommendation, this belt will need to be replaced somewhere between 60,000 and 100,000 miles. However, there are some signs you may recognize that point to the need for timing belt replacement. While we’ll need to make an accurate diagnosis, watch for an illuminated check engine light, oil leaks, overheating, unexpected vibration as you drive, the sound of a belt squealing, ticking noises, difficulty starting your car, and a lack of engine power. Replacing the belt as recommended or when there’s trouble is important. If you delay until the belt breaks, the damage, time, and expense increase sharply. It’s also often a good practice to coincide this repair with water pump replacement, as this part must be removed to reach the timing belt.
