Nowadays, science and technology are developing faster and faster, and some new things come out every day. For some car maintenance personnel, these things have reduced a lot of trouble.

Some car owners will think that their cars do not need to be repaired as long as they keep driving. If you think so, you are totally wrong! If we do not regularly inspect and maintain our car, the timing belt of the car engine will cause disaster in the later driving of the car!

Timing beltIt is an important part of the engine's air distribution system, mainly through a rotation of the crankshaft to ensure an accuracy in the intake and exhaust time of the car.

Everyone knows that the normal driving of a car is largely due to the engine, and the timing belt is a part of the engine's air distribution system, which plays a vital role in the driving of the car.

The timing belt is made of rubber. After a certain period of use, it will age, crack or even break. Not only that, if there is a problem with the operation of the tensioner, idler, and guide wheel, or some external pollution damage, incorrect installation, etc., it will also cause problems with the timing belt. Therefore, it is very important to regularly check and replace the timing belt!

But many car owners don't know the replacement time of the timing belt, so today I will take you to discuss how long it needs to be replaced!

Timing belt replacement time

The replacement cycle will also vary between different models. Usually the replacement cycle of the timing belt is about 60000 kilometers, while the general timing chain is free of replacement, and a few need to be replaced are more than 100000 kilometers. However, the specific time will be subject to the calibration cycle of each model. Our car owners can check it through the maintenance manual of their car.

Generally speakingThe original timing belt will be more durable, If it is the first time to replace it, it basically needs to be replaced when the car has driven 10 to 150000 kilometers (4s shop will usually let you replace it when your maintenance cycle is 60%). If the maintenance cycle is 150000 kilometers, it will tell you at this time that it will be replaced from 8 to 90000. After all, others do not know what the purpose of your own vehicle is.

1. If your car belongs to you for a long timeempty car runningIf so, you can check at 100000 kilometers, and continue to use it if there is no problem. At this time, you need to replace it when you run 13 to 150000 kilometers.

2 if your caroften burdenedIf so, the damage to the belt is also great, so it should be checked at 6 to 80000 kilometers and replaced at 100000 kilometers.

3, this time if it ishas been replacedAfter that, it is necessary to carry out another inspection. If it is changed, it will be replaced 20000 kilometers in advance. If the car does not reach this kilometer, but it is more than five years, it should be checked.

In fact, the timing belt of a car is a plastic product. As long as the car is started, it will run at a high speed. It is also a device close to the engine and is basically in a high temperature state.

If the timing belt breaks and is at a high speed, it may be in a state of climbing at this time, or it may be on a highway. If it breaks, the engine will directly resist the valve, and then the car It turned off, accompanied by a big abnormal noise.

If you are not willing to replace the timing belt of a few hundred yuan, then wait for the engine of your car to face the problem of overhaul!

How to deal with a broken timing belt?

When the timing belt breaks, it will cause the car to suddenly stall. After that, don't start the car again, which can reduce your loss. At this time, the engine valve of the car is already damaged.

In severe cases, the piston will deform, the connecting rod will bend, or even just pray for a bad phenomenon. If you go to repair at this time, the maintenance cost will not be less than a few thousand or even tens of thousands of pieces. Therefore, we must use the timing belt correctly, and keep in mind some replacement cycles. Timely replacement, so as to ensure our safety in driving!
