How to Replace a Car's Timing Belt?
1 Answers
Car timing belts require regular replacement, typically every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. It is best to replace the timing belt at a 4S shop. During replacement, the timing must be properly aligned; otherwise, it may result in the engine losing acceleration power or even failing to start. The engine's timing is crucial as the timing belt drives the camshaft, which controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves. Incorrect timing can cause irreversible damage to the engine. If the timing belt is not replaced for an extended period, it may eventually break. In such cases, avoid attempting to start the engine as it could further damage the engine.
