Timing BeltIt may be difficult to tell if your car’s timing belt is defective. This is why we will cite a few symptoms so that you are able to identify the problem.
A malfunctioning timing belt can hurt your car’s engine performance and may also cause the fuel consumption to rise. Since the potential damage is considerable, drivers must be vary of any issues that may arise.
For instance, if an unusual noise is emanating from the engine, that may be a sign of a flawed timing belt. Of course, it is not easy to tell because you cannot see the problem and it may as well be another component of the car that is creating the noise.
