Never reuse a timing belt as the inner strands pull and lock into place on first fitting and this cannot be replicated. Pinching the fold of a belt can crack the integrated fiberglass strands, but these inter-locking strands are designed for immense lateral pulling strain. Key to the message is that belts are not simply strips of rubber but highly engineered products, so it makes sense to fit a quality brand from a top manufacturer. At motorparts.ie our belts are of premium quality and produced by the world’s biggest OE suppliers to the car manufacturers.
