The timing belt in your engine controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves. Chicago drivers need to replace it on a schedule to avoid failure.
Timing belts are very difficult to get to, requiring quite a bit of labor to access. Timing belt replacement is one of the more expensive maintenance services, but the cost at Tuffy Chicago (Diversey Pkwy) to correct an engine damaged by a broken timing belt is much, much more.

Give us a call.
