Timing belt OEM Toyota or OEM Volkswagen
Der Zahnriemen in unseren Golf 4 hat 21 Jahre gehalten :D
Beim Alfa auch so...Soll wohl alle 4 Jahre gewechselt werden, war über 10 Jahre drin.
Mein Polo hatte selbst 12 Jahre Überzug aber es ist weder der Zahnriemen gerissen noch sonst was. War mehr oder weniger auch in der gleichen Situation, nur waren es bei mir 11 Jahre mehr Überzug.
Solange der Zahnriemen nicht im Ölbad läuft und er nicht porös, erste Risse oder Brüche (auf der Innenseite) zeigt würde ich mir da wenig Gedanken machen, sowieso wenn deine Karre mit nächsten Jahr weg soll.
What I like about our Hilux is after 200k kms, is timing belt lang napalitan. The durability is impeccable.
I’ve seen the genuine Toyota belts go well over 100k before they give up. They were 60k belts years ago that would usually cross 100 and occasionally double the recommended interval before they broke.
Glad you used lock tools. You could always reinstall tools to check. But if pin was in crank and bar installed hard to screw that one up for belt.
For my vehicle, a VW Tiguan 2018 2.0L 4Motion diesel SEL model, I opted to replace the timing/Axillary belts (due to a squeal noise) at 36,000 miles. As shown in the attached photographs, the timing and auxiliary belts were showing signs of wear.
I changed the original timing belt on my 2011 TDI Golf at 192,000 miles and the belt still looked good.
They recommend 10 years or 120k miles I pushed mine till 11years and 160k miles but when I removed my original belt it had a significant crack in it from dry rotting
Era somente para trocar correia dentada e depois de eu deixar lá, o mecanico viu q tinha algumas coisas para trocar como velas, disco de freio e pastilha de freio q estava bem gastas(na verdade ja estava batendo ferro com ferro), bandejas de suspensão + bucha(barulho embaixo do carro),correia do alternador e da bomba d´agua, bomba d´gua, troca do liquido de arrefecimento, um dos pneus traseiros estava com prego e aproveitei já fiz o balanceamento,rodizio dos pneus e alinhamento e isso deu 7000 reais.
I experienced this as well. Bought a kit and the belt was sooooo hard to get on. Like I knew it wasn’t going to be easy but man it was hard to get on. The belt broke after less than 10k miles. Everything was marked genuine, etc.
