Timing Belt Inspection & Replacement in Columbus
It's important that your Lexus (or any other vehicle that you have) run properly. Your engine depends on a timing belt to help with the functionality of the internal combustion engine. If there are problems with the engine, it can leave you stranded on the side of the road. When you're in or around Columbus, OH, you can depend on us at Germain Lexus of Dublin.
What the Timing Belt is Responsible For
The timing belt sometimes referred to as the timing chain, is an integral part of the internal combustion engine. It is responsible for synchronizing the rotation of the crankshaft and the camshaft to ensure that the valves open and close on the engine. Without proper timing, it can lead to misfires as well as other problems.
How the Timing Belt Can Break
While a timing belt is made to last, there are a number of reasons why it might break. In some instances, it can become unattached from the crank and camshaft. With regular inspections under the hood, our technicians will be able to identify a problem. Ideally, you can replace the timing belt before it actually breaks. This can save you a significant amount of time and money, too.
Why You Need a Timing Belt
It can get extremely hot under the hood. Over time, the timing belt can experience a significant amount of wear and tear. Eventually, the timing belt can snap entirely. When this happens, it can prevent your engine from functioning properly. There are a few signs that you may need to replace your timing belt right away. The engine may not turnover, there are engine misfires, or there is a ticking noise coming from the engine. You may also notice that oil leaks from in front of the motor. If you notice any of these signs, be sure to contact us for an appointment right away.
