Since timing is everything, when did you last check your Land Rover cam belt in Sutton? At CSG Automotive, we have an awesome car servicing garage. Here at our up to date workshop, we specialise in Land Rovers. We are staffed with experienced mechanics to carry out all maintenance, service and repairs. Our work is to the highest standards and according to the manufacturer recommendations. Customer service is a priority for us so we offer valet service, recovery and loaner cars. We are an independent garage, so while our Land Rover services are dealer quality our prices are up to 50% cheaper. Your cam belt in your Land Rover is a critical part and it will usually last at least up to 60,000 miles and maybe as much as 100,000 miles.
The fact that the life span of your cam belt is not absolute is the reason it’s critical to keep a check on it’s condition. For our customers in Sutton, Land Rover cam belt replacement is far cheaper when it shows signs of wear. It gets pricey if the belt snaps while you are driving causing damage to other engine parts including valves, pistons and the water pump. If that happens, there are no options to delay because your car engine will not operate. The good news, as mentioned before, is we do recovery of your Land Rover and bring it to our garage. There are no absolutes for warning signs your cam belt is worn to the point of breaking. You may not notice or hear any warning signs at all.
Sometimes, when a Land Rover cam belt in Sutton is near the breaking point you will hear a ticking sound. Other possible warning signs are misfires and engine odours or smoke. The purpose of the timing belt is the perfect synchronisation of valves and pistons. They are moving very fast when your engine is running. If the cam belt suddenly breaks, the speed of those moving parts colliding can cause a lot of engine damage. Contact CSG Automotive and schedule a service appointment for your Range Rover. We’ll check your cam belt for wear just as we check hoses, fluids and everything else. Replacement cam belts can be installed according to manufacturer recommendations.
