Parts to be replaced
When replacing the timing gear, all the components that wear out are replaced. In the case of timing that uses a belt, there are, in addition to the belt itself, the guide rollers, the tensioner and the water pump (if it is driven from the valve train). With chain timing, the chain, guide sliders, tensioner and sprockets (if they bear signs of excessive wear) are replaced. Timing failure is most often due to neglect of its periodic replacement. It results in serious engine damage in most cases. Proper The moment for replacing the timing gear is determined by following the manufacturer's guidelines. Mileage and service life are taken into account. When replacing the timing gear, it is most often necessary to remove and install the timing belt. We then recommend replacing the belt with a new one.
