Operation: Reasons why it is important to check the timing belt even if you have not reached the recommended time or mileage interval.

In this video, we see why it is important to check the timing belt even if we are quite far from the mileage or time limit indicated by the manufacturer. The YouTuber gives us the example of the Audi A3 in the video, which is far from the recommended 200,000 km or ten years, but the belt is very worn and there is a leak from the water pump. If neglected, the bushing where the water pump pulley rotates can come off, and as a result, the belt also comes off, leading to a catastrophic disaster. Therefore, when going for a service, it is always good to spend five minutes removing the two bolts from the casing and take a look at the timing belt, which may incur some expense, but it is always much less than what can happen if the intervention is not done immediately.
