Timing belts are what link the top of your engine (camshaft(s)) to the bottom (crankshaft), this belt is a vital part of your engine & is recommended replacement at certain intervals set by the manufacturer. The cambelt is required to keep the camshaft(s) & the crankshaft running in sync with each other to maintain correct valve timing & to keep your engine running smoothly. Although the costs for this work is normally higher in value, the price for not replacing this item will ALWAYS be more.
The clutch acts as a mechanical linkage between the engine & transmission. By dis-engaging the clutch, the engine speed (RPM) is no longer determined by the driven wheels meaning that you are able to disconnect the gearbox to aid the gearbox in gear changing. When this part starts to fail it will lead to either an odd feeling clutch pedal with a high "biting" point with a stiff gear change. Complete failure will result in loss of drive & unable to select gears with the engine running.
This can be anything from a noise, odd behaviour of vehicle components, electrical failures or mechanical failures. Diagnostics can be a mine field & can sometimes be a costly job depending on issue & how bad the issue is. Here at Bury Autos Service & Repair we use top of the range diagnostic scanners & scopes to diagnose issues & confirm faults for the correct first time fix. Our technicians also have extensive motor vehicle knowledge to aid in the diagnosis of faults that may have occurred.
