The Right Team for Your Replacement

Why Timing Belts are Important

For drivers in the American Fork area considering a timing belt replacement with Clegg Auto, it’s first important to realize why this component is crucial. Besides being your engine’s go-to for all performance and response, the timing belt must be properly maintained for the camshaft and crankshaft to be in correct timing. Each time you hit the gas, your car’s engine needs a good working timing belt to ensure that the fuel and exhaust valves open at the correct time during the pistons cycle. Without these things happening, you will notice engine misfiring, overheating, and malfunction. By not replacing your timing belt every 60,000 to 100,000 miles, you risk destroying your vehicle’s engine. No worries, though, because our trained employees can quickly get your car, truck, or SUV into the shop for a multi-point inspection, as well as get a timing belt replacement started the same day. This appointment can be longer than other component services, so feel free to enjoy loaner cars, free Wi-Fi in our lounge, and text updates along the way. Trust Clegg Auto to do the right thing the first time, and with a smile.

Signs You Need Timing Belt Replacement

This placement puts them at risk for cracking and drying out. Usually, a timing belt replacement follows issues like decreased performance, slower engine response time, overheating, and stalling. You could also experience engine misfire, trouble starting your car, squealing or rubbing noises, ticking sounds coming from your engine, leaking oil, and a check engine light on the dashboard.
