You may know your cam belt has gone if you hear a loud ticking or rattling noise coming from the engine, or if the engine fails to start. Additionally, if you notice a loss of power or the engine misfires, these can be signs of a cam belt issue. In some cases, you might also see oil leaks or other damage to the surrounding components. It's crucial to have it inspected by a mechanic if you suspect a problem.
