Recognizing the right time to get your belts and hoses checked is crucial for preventing unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs. Generally, we recommend inspecting these components at regular intervals, typically every oil change, or more frequently for older vehicles. Warning signs that indicate the need for an immediate check include visible cracks, leaks, squealing noises, overheating, and a loss of power.


Particularly, the timing belt is a critical component that should be replaced according to your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations, usually between 60,000 and 100,000 miles. Failure to do so can lead to severe engine damage. Our ASE Master Certified technicians at Richmond Street Automotive have the expertise to assess the condition of your belts and hoses.


We offer reliable advice and timely replacements to keep your vehicle running smoothly.

 

Timing Belt and Power Steering Hose Replacement - Appleton, WI


At Richmond Street Automotive, servicing your vehicle’s belts and hoses begins with a comprehensive inspection to identify wear and tear, cracks, leaks, and any signs of aging. Our process involves checking the serpentine belt for fraying, cracking, and proper tension, ensuring it can efficiently drive the various pulleys for your vehicle's alternator, air conditioning compressor, and power steering pump. For the timing belt, we assess its condition and replace it if necessary, following the manufacturer's guidelines to prevent the risk of engine damage. Hoses are inspected for brittleness, bulging, and leaks, which could indicate a failure in the cooling system. Our technicians use only the highest quality replacement parts to ensure durability and performance, adhering to the standards that have earned us the title of Carfax Top Rated Service Center for three consecutive years.
