Will the timing belt breakage of Roewe 550 cause valve collision?
1 Answers
Roewe 550 timing belt breakage generally causes valve collision. Specific explanation is as follows: If the timing belt breaks while the engine is running, the camshaft will not operate according to the timing, which may cause the valves to collide with the pistons and result in severe damage. To avoid greater losses caused by timing belt breakage, regular inspection and maintenance of the timing belt should be performed. If cracks or fractures are found on the belt, it is best to replace it immediately. Introduction to automotive timing belt breakage is as follows: When the timing belt breaks, the connection between the camshaft and crankshaft is interrupted. At this time, the camshaft loses power drive, causing the valve group controlled by it to fail in opening and closing. Due to inertia, the pistons will bend the valve stems. If the engine speed is high, the pistons may also suffer from ablation damage, and in severe cases, it can directly lead to engine scrapping. When the engine is under heavy load or experiences power impact, it is prone to tooth skipping, which may cause valve collision and damage the engine.
