Timing Belt Replacement at Butler Automotive

Every time your engine is running, wear and tear is put on the timing belt, the timing belt tensioner, and the timing idlers and pulleys. If the belt breaks or any of the timing components fail while you are driving, two things will happen:

1. Your vehicle will stop running and will not restart.
2. There is a chance of serious engine damage occurring as pistons can collide with untimed valves, bending them and forcing replacement.

Because timing belt failures are both inconvenient and potentially extremely expensive, the solution is to follow your manufacturer’s recommendation for scheduled timing belt replacement. The intervals for replacement differ among vehicles, but Butler Automotive can tell you the replacement schedule for your vehicle and make an appointment to keep you out of trouble!
