A damaged timing belt would stop the engine from running probably with no warning. If you should have an "interference engine" it would basically destroy the engine.
This is an interference engine. If the timing belt snaps it will cause a loads of problems: bent valves, damaged pistons, damaged cam shaft. Replace the belt every 60,000 miles.
there is no timing belt. it is a timing chain and doesn't need replacement unless it is damaged.
Yes, if the timing belt breaks on a 2008 Hyundai Accent, it can cause significant engine damage. This model has an interference engine design, meaning that when the timing belt fails, the pistons can collide with the valves, leading to bent valves, damaged pistons, and potentially catastrophic engine failure. It is crucial to replace the timing belt at the manufacturer's recommended intervals to prevent such issues.
Not unless they are damaged or faulty.
The timing belt of a vehicle is responsible for linking the activities of the crankshaft and camshaft. A damaged timing belt could be responsible for a faulty engine.
Unfortunately this can be an expensive fix, especially if the timing belt damaged any other parts when it broke. If you are driving fast when the belt breaks, it can cause damage to the engine too. On average, the timing belt alone plus labor can cost about $800 - $1,000.00 to fix.
Almost certainly. The timing belt being damaged or broken can cause a number of different problems. I know in my 86 celica sx the result of a faulty/ old timing belt was a piston snapping off at the control rod, it was warped and bent because of wrong timing. i suggest if u have a broken/old/damaged timing belt you do not drive it till u get it replaced. Also see your mechanic for more advice
Yes, if the timing belt breaks on a Fiat Punto, it can cause significant engine damage. In interference engines, which many Fiat models use, a broken timing belt can lead to the pistons colliding with the valves, resulting in bent valves, damaged pistons, or even a ruined engine. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of the timing belt are crucial to prevent such catastrophic failures.
That depends on the engine and what belt (timing or accessory).
Yes, the oil pump could be damaged if the timing belt tensioner was damaged in the vehicle. It is a good idea to check the oil pressure to determine if the pump is working correctly.
Check all belts and anything that was removed while changing the timing belt, to make sure that nothing was damaged. If everything is ok, then the timing belt may be loose.
I believe you need to replace a timing belt. Cause it uses timing chain which doesn't required to change as timing belt.
