When to Change the Timing Belt on the Dacia Sandero?

Model: Dacia Sandero B8 - Years 2012-2020
Part: Timing belt

In this video tutorial, you can see when it is possible to change the timing belt on the Dacia Sandero. It is important to know that the timing belt is one of the most crucial parts of the engine; it connects the crankshaft, fuel pump, water pump, and camshafts that control the intake and exhaust valves. As such, the timing belt tends to wear over time; it can lose strength and may break, damaging the engine. Generally, it should be replaced around 62,000 miles or according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
