Seville Mechanic's Simple Timing Belt Check Goes Viral

Seville Mechanic Offers Simple Timing Belt Inspection Tip Seville, Spain – A local mechanic, Talleres Ebenezer, has shared a quick and easy way to check the condition of a car's timing belt, a crucial component that can lead to significant engine damage if neglected. In a recent TikTok video, Ebenezer shows viewers how to use a common tool to gauge the wear of the belt on a PureTech 1200 engine. He points out that oil and fuel contamination can cause the belt to degrade, resulting in cracks and potential failure. "Many people don't realize how easily a timing belt can deteriorate," Ebenezer explains in the video. "Regular maintenance is key to avoiding costly repairs." Ebenezer's video has garnered significant attention, with viewers sharing their experiences and asking questions about maintenance schedules. One commenter wrote, "A los 60000km me la ha cambiado Peugeot fuera de garantía pero por defecto de diseño no me han cobrado nada." This highlights the importance of preventative maintenance and the potential for manufacturer defects. Ebenezer's advice emphasizes the need for regular oil changes (every 10,000km) and timing belt replacement around 60,000km. His practical demonstration and focus on preventative car care make his video a valuable resource for car owners.
