It does not matter what kind of vehicle you own! If you have a timing chain fault, we can replace it. In this article we are going to look at the symptoms of a faulty timing chain. They are not hard to spot, normally there is some kind of signal that can alert you that you will need to get the timing chain inspected.

What are the symptoms?

Here are the symptoms that you could be experiencing problems with the timing chain on your vehicle.

– You are experiencing heavy vibrations coming from under the bonnet.
– You are hearing large banging noises coming from the engine.
– You are losing power.
– You are rough idling and experiencing high RPMs coming from the engine.
– The engine management light comes on.

If you are experiencing any of the symptoms above, you will likely need to get the vehicle inspected and booked in for a diagnostic.

We can service your vehicles timing chain quickly!

We are a vehicle service garage that is known for servicing vehicles quickly. We hear everything here at the garage. Motorists are turning to main dealers and having to wait at least two months to get their vehicles diagnosed with a timing chain fault. The problem with this is you could be driving around with a fault on your engine and making the problem worse.

If you leave a timing chain un-serviced and it is damaged in someway and carry on driving the vehicle, it can cause damage to other vehicle engine components, which is why you need to have your vehicle checked as quickly as possible, before more damage is done. Here is a Ford vehicle where we recently changed the vehicles timing chain.

We got this vehicle in quickly getting the timing chain replaced in two workings days. We are not having a go at main dealers; business must be good. We are simply looking out for motorists who need to ensure their timing chain is in good nick and that no further damage to the engine will take place that could cost them more money.
