Why Replace Your Timing Belt

Critical Warning: The 1KZ is an interference engine, meaning pistons and valves occupy the same space at different times. If the timing belt fails, pistons will contact valves, causing severe and expensive engine damage, including bent valves, damaged pistons, and potential cylinder head damage.

Don't risk catastrophic engine failure - replace your timing belt at Toyota's recommended intervals with this genuine OEM replacement part. Regular timing belt maintenance is the most cost-effective way to protect your valuable 1KZ engine investment.
