A timing belt is normally made from reinforced rubber-based material. A timing chain is metallic and operates differently.
Chains aren't maintenance-free
Timing-chain systems can develop problems involving:
- Chain wear
- Tensioners
- Guides
- Lubrication
- Excessive chain movement
How to find out which your car has
DB Autos' existing timing service also includes chain and tensioner parts. Give us your vehicle registration or details and we can establish which timing system your engine uses. Call 01782 844320.
