A broken timing belt does more than leave you in tennis shoe mode; it causes extensive expensive engine damage when piston heads mangle valves. Don't wait for valves and pistons to bang heads in the dark. Avoid costly engine damage caused when a broken timing belt wreaks havoc inside your engine. Secure your car's future on the road with our kits, and allow yourself to drive with confidence.

Don't wait for valves and pistons to bang heads in the dark. Avoid costly engine damage and catastrophic engine failure. The first symptom is noise in the timing system as the chains slap around due to worn tensioners and guides. Failed guides can cause the chains to jump, skip a tooth and potentially snap. Because the 2.0T is an interference motor, a snapped chain or one that has jumped a tooth means that valves can contact the pistons and cause catastrophic engine failure. Secure your car's future on the road with our kits, and allow yourself to drive with confidence.
