How Long Does a Dayco Timing Belt Last?

[LeWalker]

Under normal circumstances, the common replacement interval is 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, with some longer-lasting options requiring replacement at 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers. Timing Belt: The timing belt is a crucial component of the engine's valve train system. It connects to the crankshaft and maintains precise intake/exhaust timing through specific gear ratios. Timing Belt Lifespan: The timing belt experiences wear during operation. Excessive mileage increases the risk of breakage. If the timing belt breaks, the engine will produce abnormal noises and valves will cease functioning. Severe cases may cause engine component damage, rendering the vehicle inoperable. Manufacturers generally recommend replacement every 80,000-100,000 kilometers, but actual replacement intervals should be determined based on vehicle usage patterns and maintenance manual specifications. New vehicles or infrequently driven cars may extend this interval appropriately.
