Questions
Good to know before you book
Still unsure? Call the shop and a service advisor will talk you through it.
What happens if a timing belt breaks?
On many engines it can cause major internal damage. That’s why we replace it on schedule rather than waiting for it to fail.
Does my car have a belt or a chain?
It depends on the engine. Tell us your year, make and model and we’ll check before you book.

Sample review
Timing belt and water pump on my old Odyssey. Took a full day, but they texted updates and the price was right where they said it would be.
