Timing Belt Replacement in Helsinki

Home > Services > Timing belt replacement

The timing belt is one of the most important parts of your car’s engine. Auto Sky’s experienced professionals are thoroughly familiar with the timing belt structures of different car brands and the manufacturers’ service interval and replacement recommendations.

Our extensive experience ensures that timing belt maintenance and replacement are always done according to the manufacturer’s instructions – correctly and at the right time. This way, we ensure the longevity of your engine and worry-free miles.

Why is Timing Belt Replacement Important?

The timing belt controls your engine’s operation by synchronizing the valves and pistons to work in the same rhythm. If the belt breaks while driving, it usually results in severe engine damage. In the worst case, the entire engine can be damaged so extensively that it needs to be replaced.

Regular timing belt replacement is one of the most important maintenance procedures. It’s much cheaper than repairing engine damage. At the same time, it ensures that your engine operates efficiently and consumes less fuel.

Quality Parts Ensure Proper Function

The quality of the timing belt kit is particularly important. We only use original or equivalent belt kits that meet the car manufacturer’s quality requirements. The kit includes the belt, tensioners, and guide rollers, all of which are replaced at once.

High-quality parts and professional installation ensure that the timing belt lasts for the time specified by the manufacturer. We provide a comprehensive warranty for the work and parts so that you can drive worry-free after the replacement.

When is it Time for a Timing Belt Overhaul?

The replacement interval for the timing belt depends on your car and the manufacturer’s instructions:

Check the replacement interval in the service manual or ask our experts. Remember that for cars driven infrequently, age can be a more important factor than mileage.

How Do You Know if There's Something Wrong with the Timing Belt?

If you notice any of the following, bring your car to our auto repair shop:

Starting the car is difficult. This can happen for several reasons, but often it’s due to incorrect ignition timing. This is caused by a damaged timing belt that no longer keeps the ignition properly timed.
The exhaust is visibly smoky. If your car is emitting heavy smoke from the exhaust pipe, the fuel isn’t burning properly, likely because the engine valves aren’t opening or closing quickly enough. Again, this is due to a timing error caused by the timing belt.
The engine vibration is unusual. When the timing belt has stretched or is missing teeth, the engine runs unevenly, causing the car to vibrate.

If the engine runs hotter than it should or leaks fluid, it overloads and may damage the timing belt, even to the point where the belt breaks unexpectedly.
