What is a Timing Belt?

The timing belt is vital in driving your vehicle and running your engine. It works by turning the camshaft at the correct speed in relation to the crankshaft to ensure the valves in your engine's cylinders open at precisely the right time. Unfortunately, if the timing belt breaks, it can cause irreparable damage to your engine and its parts. For this reason, you must replace the timing belt at regular intervals — usually 60,000 miles or five years, depending on the make and model. You can find the exact recommended replacement intervals in your car's manual.

Replacing the timing belt is quite a tricky repair job. And it can be challenging to change it correctly. Too loose and it can whip; too tight and it will place strain on excessive strain on the subsequent parts.

To ensure that your timing belt is set at the correct tension, we recommend that all timing belt parts be replaced simultaneously. Our timing belt kits include everything you need to do this. It consists of the timing belt, the idler, and the tensioner pulleys, all of which are required to increase or decrease the tension on the belt. Plus, all the necessary fittings and fixings. If you're confident about changing the timing belt, follow our handy guide.
