Timing Belts / Cambelts

What does a cambelt do?

The cambelt, or timing belt, is one of the most important engine components because it regulates the way your engine works by synchronising the rotation of the crankshaft and the camshaft. Like most engine parts, it does eventually wear out, and if it’s left it can snap which can cause some very expensive damage to your engine. On older vehicles, this could even cost more than the value of the vehicle itself.

There aren’t really any signs that warn you that your cambelt needs changing, so it’s worth checking in your owner’s manual to see what intervals the manufacturer recommends. If you’re not sure, get in touch with Car & Commercial Repairs, and we can check the health of your cambelt and replace it at our workshop in Bulwell, Nottingham.

Car & Commercial Repairs is an RAC-Approved garage, and is also affiliated with 1-Link and The Motor Ombudsman. All three organisations impose strict codes of practice to protect our customers and underpin our commitment to the highest standards of workmanship and customer service.
