Timing is Everything.

This may be true in your life and especially so in your finely tuned German car tooling around Topeka. Not to overstate it but, your car’s timing belt is essential to the proper function of the engine itself. Your timing belt acts as a link between the two most important halves allowing for proper air flow, at the correct time, within your engine.

What are some of the symptoms of a failing belt?

1.  There are odd noises emanating from your car’s engine

2.  Your car occasionally misfires

3.  It idles roughly

4.  And of course…just look for a light illuminating on your dashboard

You probably already know about the importance of your timing belt…especially if you drive a foreign car. The best place to have it checked and perhaps replaced if necessary is A.J.’s Import Garage. Count on A.J.’s for quality workmanship on all types of vehicles at 501 S.W. Harrison in Topeka. Call for an appointment at (785) 233-1000 and visit ajsimportgarage.com.
