Book a cambelt change

The cambelt, or timing belt, keeps your engine's valves and pistons working in sync. Over time, the cambelt wears down and can snap, which could cause engine damage. We recommend that you replace your cambelt in line with your manufacturer service schedule.

Any work done will meet the high standards set by the RAC.
We’re friendly, straightforward and jargon-free

Book a diagnostic

A mechanic will check your car for faults and talk you through any repairs you might need. There are various ways to check for faults, which could include a physical examination or plugging in to check your car’s onboard engine management system.

We’ll look for any mechanical or electrical problems. If we need to, we’ll also check your car’s onboard engine management system. Depending on your car and issue, this will usually include: – Engine – Power steering – Brakes – Transmission – Exhaust system – Fuel injection system – Cooling system and air flow – Sensors

And it’s not just cambelt changes that we do for your Jeep

Frequently asked questions about a cambelt change

Common cambelt issues include cracking, stretching, loss of teeth, and oil contamination. This can cause the cambelt to fail and damage the engine.

Replace the cambelt every 60,000 to 100,000 miles or 4 to 6 years. Check your owner's manual for exact details.

The cost of cambelt replacement varies. It’s based on the vehicle type, labour charges, and additional parts needed. On average, it ranges from £300 to £600. It’s best to get a detailed estimate from your mechanic.

This depends on your vehicle’s warranty terms. Some warranties cover cambelt issues if it fails in certain mileage or time. Check your warranty details for coverage information.

Cambelt replacements aren’t covered by insurance. It’s a good idea to check with your insurance provider for details.
