Pre-emptive Timing Belt Change – Don’t Leave it too Late!

Is your Peugeot, Citroen, or Vauxhall experiencing issues with worn timing belts? You’re not alone. While manufacturers recommend changing timing belts every 100,000 miles or every 10 years, we at French Cars of Shrewsbury want to draw your attention to a critical fact: in reality, these belts need more frequent attention.

Our team of skilled technicians understands the unique challenges posed by these vehicles, and we’re here to help you keep your car in top-notch condition. If your car is still under warranty, the manufacturer will address the timing belt issues. However, for those beyond warranty, it’s essential to take proactive measures.

Timing belts play a crucial role in the smooth operation of your vehicle’s engine, ensuring that the various components work in perfect harmony. Peugeot, Citroen, and Vauxhall cars, in particular, run on oil, putting additional stress on the timing belt. This means the standard recommendation may not be sufficient for these vehicles.

Avoid Costly Failures

At French Cars of Shrewsbury, we advise our customers to consider a shorter interval for timing belt replacements – every 3-4 years or between 30,000 to 40,000 miles. By adhering to this revised schedule, you can safeguard your vehicle’s engine and prevent potential costly damage.

Our garage is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, and our team is well-versed in the intricacies of Peugeot, Citroen, and Vauxhall vehicles. We use high-quality replacement parts, ensuring that your timing belt is reliable and durable.
