Timing belt replacement interval guide (Margaret Wells) Check/change packing blocks, water pumps, turning wheels and belt tensioners. Also recommended to change the water pump, Always change the Auxiliary/fan belt. NOTE: If timing belt has failed, it is possible that the camshaft sprocket key has been damaged which would cause incorrect valve timing.
A timing belt failure is bad news because when the belt breaks, the camshaft stops turning and the engine dies.
Removal and refitting step by step.
Do not put the Aux/fan back on. Removal and refitting step by step. I have changed a lot of timing belts and I know the first sign that the belt is bad is cracking or separation at the base of the driven side of the teeth.
