Average rating for Timing Chain Replacement
4.1 • based on 7 reviews of 7 businesses
A timing chain in a Volkswagen Golf ensures the crankshaft and camshaft are synchronised, allowing the valves to open and close at the exact moment needed for cylinder combustion. This synchronisation is important for the engine performance.
If your Volkswagen Golf is equipped with a timing chain, it's important to note that, over time, the chain can stretch or even fail due to wear and tear. This natural degradation means that eventually, the timing chain will need to be replaced to maintain the engine’s functionality. Failure to do so can lead to significant engine issues down the line.
When a timing chain stretches, several symptoms may arise, such as noticeable power loss, engine backfires, rattling noises from the engine, and rough idling or driving. This happens because the engine's timing becomes misaligned, affecting the combustion process.
