Well I really have no idea what a ldv is, but if your timing belt breaks and your engine is an interference engine there will be damage. If it is not an interference engine there will be no damage.
BELT
Yes, but not only valves will be damage. Yes, but not only valves will be damage.
If it is an interference engine valves can bend when hit by the pistons.
Very high probability of valve damage. Havent seen one yet that hasn't bent valves when belt broke. hope this helps
ok
This is known as an interference engine. In the event of a timing belt failiure, the valves collide with the pistons. This leads to bent valves, possible damage to the valve guides, possible cylinder head damage, & on very rare occasions piston damage as well
most snapped timing belts will in most cases cause engine damage,the only exception would be a freewheeling engine were valve to piston contact would be minimal an interference type engine would cause damage.
depends on whether or not the belt has snapped,if not £250.00 should cover it,if it has then it depends on the amount of engine damage caused.
Yes, as this is an interference engine. Change the belt every 105,000 miles or every 10 years and you will not have to worry about this.
timing belt snapped
It depends what kind of revs you were doing. If they were high, then it is possible that you could have snapped a crank, or damaged a piston. However if they were low, then there may be no damage at all
It will do some internal damage ie bent valves being the main one. Hi I'm just half we through taken a head of a megane 1.4 coupe that had timing belt snapped. It will also cause damage to pistons as well, the amount of damage will be on how fast you was going when it let go but it will have cause damage though. If it has bent valves you may need to check the valve guides as well.
