The timing belt is a crucial component for the proper functioning and longevity of the engine. Modern belts are made of rubber, making them very quiet, but the issue is that they are not easily accessible, and there is no clear indicator of wear.

The best way to avoid significant engine failures (if the timing belt breaks, the damage to the engine can often be irreparable) is to closely follow the manufacturer's recommendations. It is always advisable to check every 30,000 miles after exceeding 60,000 miles, and to replace it after 100,000 miles or 5 to 6 years.
