Why is a car’s timing belt replacement important?

One of the most important parts of your car’s engine module is the timing belt, also known as a cambelt. The timing belt in a car is a toothed belt that coordinates the timing of the combustion process by connecting the engine’s crankshaft to its camshafts. An engine won’t run if the timing belt is broken and needs repair. The belt’s ribbed shape makes sure that the top and bottom of your engine rotate in unison.

If a timing belt malfunctions, the valves will open when they shouldn’t and wind up striking the larger pistons, severely damaging the engine. It’s a serious safety concern. A timing belt has the drawback of rarely giving you any advance warning that it is likely to fail. A car’s timing belt replacement should be done before it breaks. It usually lasts between 60,000 and 100,000 kilometres before you’ve to worry about timing belt change costs, depending on the make and model of your car.

Timing Belt Related Components That Affect Its Lifespan

Usually, when timing belt repair work is needed, it’s not just the belt at fault but also the components that work in tandem with the timing belt. These parts are equally important to ensure the whole timing belt system works smoothly. The other components in this system are -

Camshaft pulley

A cam pulley is a component of the engine's timing system that controls the movement of a camshaft, the timing belt element responsible for the expulsion and intake of air in the cylinders.

Idler

A timing belt idler is a pulley that assists in positioning the timing belt. The timing belt kit may include one or more idle pulleys, depending on the length and size of the engine and timing chain. The idler function stabilises regions of the drive that cause undesired vibrations.

Tensioning pulley

Tensioners correctly tension the system by using hydraulic pressure and/or spring tension. To put stress on the timing belt and keep it as smooth as possible, several tensioning pulleys are employed. They are hung from the sagging side.

Crankshaft pulley

A crankshaft pulley is a cogged gear/wheel-shaped device that attaches directly to a vehicle's crankshaft. The crankshaft pulley basically converts the pistons' linear or direct action into rotary motion. The crankshaft pulley is responsible for driving the crankshaft components. Crankshafts are in charge of driving the car's wheels.

Water pump

Because of the high temperatures in the I.C., the engine heat must be diffused to prevent overheating damage. The water pump circulates coolant throughout the circuit, ensuring that excess heat is constantly evacuated and that the timing belt and adjacent components are not subjected to thermal stress.

FAQsFrequently Asked Questions

How much does a timing belt change cost?

Timing belt repair or replacement is a complex process that can take expertise and time to accomplish properly. The timing belt alone costs between AED 200 and AED 500, while the replacement cost is determined by the brand and model of the vehicle. It can range from AED 1000 to AED 3000, approximately.
My car doesn’t have a timing belt. It has a timing chain. Is it the same?

They are functionally the same with the change being in the materials used. Timing belts are constructed of a rubber composite, whereas timing chains are made of metal. A timing belt is generally selected when a quieter, more efficient engine is required. Because they are composed of rubber, they are also less expensive to produce, so automobile makers may choose to incorporate them into the vehicle.
Timing chains are preferred over timing belts due to their longer lifespan; they seldom break, but any problems that do emerge are easy to detect before they reach the point of no return.
What can happen if the belt breaks?

If the belt in an interference engine breaks, the valves may bend, and the cylinder head or camshaft may be damaged. The piston and cylinder walls may also be damaged. Because the valves and pistons do not occupy the same space in a non-interference engine, they will not slam together. Your vehicle's engine will not be severely damaged, but it will need to be serviced right away.
