Does your timing belt need replacing?

When considering if your timing belt needs replacement there are a few things to keep in mind.

Does my diesel engine have a timing belt? Not all engines have timing belts some have timing chains, which generally don’t need replacing unless they are stretched or there is a worn or damaged component.

When does the manufacturer recommend changing the timing belt? Most engine manufacturers have a scheduled time or mileage when they suggest it should be changed.

Timing belts on a diesel engine help keep all the moving parts of the engine working in a specific synchronised order to avoid costly internal damage and get the most out of your engine.
