so what are symptoms or indication of a bad or going to be bad timing belt.
how it feels, i means what happen out of norm when timing belt start going faultyTiming belt malfunction or changing time indication?Good question but you aren't going to get any symptoms of a timing belt going bad. It is either good or bad, there is no in betweens. If it's been 60k since the last replacement, sounds like a good time to do it before you ruin your engine by bending a valve.Timing belt malfunction or changing time indication?If your timing belt gets stretched then it could jump a tooth on the sprockets. The car would spit, sputter, backfire, lack power and just plain run poorly. If it jumps too far it could result in a valve being pushed into a piston - a very bad thing. You'd hear a bang and clunking and the motor would self destruct. Best to follow manufacturers instruction on timing to change it out. Cheap insurance.
