One of the most common reasons for bent valves is a broken timing chain or belt.
The main cause for bent valves is a failure in the timing chain or belt. When the valves and pistons are not exactly in sync, they can collide.

There is NO Timing belt...- has one primary and two secondary chains. If chain broke possible to bent one or more intake valves, if slips- all intake valves need to be replaced... Good luck. G.
Almost always you will have bent valves and possible a busted piston. This is an interference engine.
If the valves bent, then yes.
You can do a cylinder leakage test to check for bent valves.You can do a cylinder leakage test to check for bent valves.
Replace the bent valves and inspect the pistons & head for damage. Replace and repair as necessary any defective parts.
If they are bent, yes.If they are bent, yes.
Severe internal engine damage is possible. Bent valves likely.
No
Need more info. It can be $5 for a Tire valves to $2000 from bent valves/damaged pistons.
If your 2.0 16v Suzuki Vitara has a timing chain failure, it's possible to have bent valves, especially if the engine is an interference design. In these engines, the pistons can collide with the valves if the timing chain slips or breaks, leading to valve damage. It's important to have the engine inspected by a mechanic to determine the extent of any damage.
