Timing belt replacement
The timing belt is the most important belt in your engine. If it fails, valves or the cylinder head may be damaged and the repair becomes expensive – so replace it on time.
What does a timing belt service include?
The toothed timing belt drives the camshaft and usually also the water pump, running over a tensioner and idler pulleys. If any of these parts fails, the engine can be badly damaged. We use OE-equivalent quality parts.
The service includes
- Timing belt replacement
- Tensioner and idler pulleys
- Water pump (recommended at the same time)
- Auxiliary belt check
- Coolant top-up and bleeding
When should the timing belt be replaced?
The interval depends on the engine and is usually given in both kilometres and years – whichever comes first. We check the right interval for your car. If you do not know when the belt was last changed, it is safest to replace it.

Frequently asked questions
Should the water pump be replaced too?
If the water pump is driven by the timing belt, it is usually worth replacing at the same time, as the work is already open.
