3. Maintenance Schedule Most vehicle manufacturers provide a recommended maintenance schedule for timing belt replacement, commonly ranging from 60,000 to 100,000 miles. Ignoring these recommendations can lead to premature belt wear and the risks associated with a belt failure. Regular checks are imperative, and car owners should be aware of the signs that a timing belt may need attention, such as unusual engine noises, difficulty starting the engine, or visible cracks and wear on the belt itself.
