OEM Mopar Timing Belts & Chains

Your timing belt or timing chain helps your vehicle's many parts move in sync, with extreme precision. Your camshaft and crankshaft are two good examples. They must synchronize to make your engine valves and pistons pump at the right intervals. As a result, your engine can run without its parts getting damaged.

Unfortunately, there aren't too many signs to tell you the belt or chain is going out, so it can be hard to diagnose. If your engine misfires without warning, for instance, it can indicate slippage or breakdown. If either completely fails, though, you'll lose engine power, and your engine will most likely shut down. If your vehicle has a timing chain, it'll make a loud crack when it breaks.

When Should I Replace My Timing Belt or Timing Chain?

So, how often does your timing belt or timing chain need to be replaced? Your vehicle's owner's manual's maintenance schedule can tell you. Your mileage will be the benchmark. If you're driving a newer vehicle, though, you may need to change its belt every 100,000 miles or so. If you're driving an older vehicle, on the other hand, you may need to replace its belt about every 60,000 miles. Today's timing chains, though, get built to last. They are usually good for the entire life of an engine.
