Diagnosis before parts
Making the right repair decision.
Timing intervals depend on the exact engine, age, mileage and manufacturer guidance. If the history is missing, checking the registration and engine details is safer than guessing from appearance alone.
A complete job normally considers tensioners, idlers, water pump, seals and coolant where they form part of the same system. Correct locking, tension and final rotation checks are essential.
