Small part - big responsibility
Your Toyota’s timing belt is the unseen hero of your engine - it’s absolutely critical for maintaining peak efficiency and mechanical health. But because it’s not in plain sight, it’s a part that’s often forgotten about or overlooked.
The timing belt’s job is to control the opening and closing of the engine's intake and exhaust valves. These in turn control the flow of air & fuel and exhaust in and out of your engine’s cylinders. This timing has to be extremely precise in order to keep all the valves and pistons running in p
roper synchronization. Without that synchronization, not only will your engine not run smoothly, but power and fuel-efficiency are also reduced.
As the timing belt ages, it stretches, becomes brittle and cracks. If it’s not maintained it will eventually break. And a broken timing belt is not a minor problem. It will stop your engine from running and can cause major internal damage and expensive repairs.
That’s why it’s absolutely crucial that your timing belt is replaced according to the schedule in your Owner’s Manual. It’s a major service, but in the long run saves you considerable repair bills, and keeps your Toyota purring like a kitten.
Genuine Toyota Timing Belts are engineered and manufactured to match your Toyota perfectly, and to ensure peak performance, efficiency and reliability.
