Timing belt maintenance has never been so important since the 5 cylinder ‘white’ engine was introduced into the US in 1993. Unlike the ‘red’ engine of days gone past, these new engines are ‘interference type’ so a broken timing belt means valve and piston damage, an expensive alternative to belt replacement. Intervals for replacement vary from 50K to 70K depending on model year. Our kit includes the belt with a DVD instructional that includes complete removal and installation procedure plus a written installation guide. With our new cam-locking tool perfect alignment can be ensured and no more potential for the camshaft to jump while the belt is off. This job used to intimidate even the most skilled individuals, but with ipd helping you out, timing belt maintenance is back in your control.
*Please note that we only carry timing belts for cars with automatic tensioners.
