Thank you for not prolonging the video and getting right to what we came for! I'm experiencing issues with my Volvo, as I was parked after starting the car it just cut off on me. After sitting there in confusion for a while I decided to start the car again, then able to reverse out of my parking spot on and it shutting off on me again. My mechanic came and diagnosed it as it being the fuel pump. Replaced that and the car still isn't starting and now he's saying it's my timing belt. Any part I've bought on my own and he hasn't overcharged me for anything if you're thinking of that. These symptoms do match what I've been dealing with, I hope changing this works; I NEED MY CAR!

[@carloshuertas8101]

My Explorer had trouble starting and lost power while drivin', I thought it was because it needed a simple replacement of spark plugs, but my mechanic told me that it needs a new timing belt😢

[@renep3276]

​@@carloshuertas8101we had an older Explorer, a 2003 & when we experienced these symptoms our mechanic finally figured it out. Relay switches were bad. Once replaced it worked fine.

[@carloshuertas8101]

​@@renep3276I actually thought the same because I had an issue w/ some relay switches months prior, but as many miles as I had, it was definitely my chain, because it would loose power and would go fast on the high way, it would take a while 2 even reach 65 mph😂

How about we make interference engines illegal to produce. I rather pay higher gas mileage than replace everything because a belt broke

Would a bad timing belt cause jerking between from first gear to second gear? I definitely have the start issue you just described (fast crank, no start) yet I have a new battery and plugs but also the vehicle (Toyota Passo, automatic) jerks when switching from first gear to second.

Great video! I have a 2017 Accord 3.5L V6 36K miles. How many miles should I wait until I get new timing belt? Or should I just change it cause it's been 7 years? Have you ever seen a low mileage high year cars timing belt look bad or break?

[@majesticmajesta5463]

Had this happen to me, Bought a Rover 75 V6 with the belts done 50,000KM ago and thus thought I was still good for a few thousand KM. But here is the thing belts wear over time and mine was done back in 2012 so my car is pretty much a ticking time bomb on wheels.

[@loreleibrewer3803]

I would err on the side of caution and say it hasn't been replaced. At least that's been my experience whenever I buy a used car, everything else is fine but the previous owner never changed engine components because they're expensive to replace. They were probably told "it needs a new timing chain/belt, that'll be $2,500" so they trade it into the dealership and make it someone else's problem

Doesn't a cracked head have the same symptoms as a bad timing belt or chain? How can you tell the difference between the two? I have a 94 suburban, I'm going to have it looked at this weekend, but the engine has lower performance, it runs rough and chokes out. But it doesn't have any coolant in the oil nor does it have any white smoke coming out the tailpipe. I was told it's a bad head but all of the symptoms match up nearly perfectly with a bad timing chain. How can you tell the difference for sure?

[@K.Bush94]

Hello! I have a question, please give me advice. I have an old suzuki swift from 2001 (a 1.3 liter gasoline engine, with Single injector). At highway speed (above 100 km/h) it starts to vibrate and feels like there is no power plus jerks when pressing down on the accelarator. The weird thing is when the car is not in gear you can rev the engine, there is no hesitation and it’s not always having this issue. The mechainc checked it and he couldn’t replicate the symptoms at city driving. What can be the reason? At startup there is no problem just a quite bad grinding noise that goes away driving it a bit and only when the engine got fully cooled. When the 4th rod bearing was scoared it didn’t have the issue and could go even with 140km/h but not all rod bearings were replaced this happens. I changed the oil several time and try and injector cleaner too… thank you in advance! :)

[@K.Bush94]

Sorry all rod bearings were changed*

[@John-tl1gn]

Vibration under load sounds like an electrical misfire. Ignition coil pack, most likely.

[@CnC780]

@kristofbokor2431 Where you able to find the cause of the problem? My Ford Fiesta from 2015 does exactly this as well. Just as you describe with the loss of power and jerking. Mechanics have not been able to replicate it when driving the car. I had the timing belt changed recently and suspect that to have something to do with it.

[@markhenry8102]

can squeaking sound be a symptom as well ?

[@easyautofix]

Yes, a squeaking noise can sometimes be associated with a timing belt issue, but it's more commonly related to other belts in the car, like the serpentine belt or accessory drive belts. Here is a video on it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3qxeaxjnKiCkLs&ab_channel=EasyAutoFix
