The smarter choice for timing belt work in Durham
Your timing belt controls the rhythm of your engine, keeping camshaft and crankshaft movement in perfect sync. If it goes wrong, the damage can be serious, often affecting pistons, valves, and other key engine parts. That’s why getting it checked, changed, or repaired on time is essential.
Have you noticed ticking noises, misfires, or oil leaking near the timing cover? Don’t wait, these are all signs your timing belt might be wearing out. Acting early could save your engine (and your wallet) from bigger problems down the line.

Timing belt trouble? Get it sorted at Vasstech Durham
We’re not about quick fixes or backstreet guesswork. Here’s how we do things differently, and why Durham drivers always recommend us to look after their timing belts.

Detail that protects your engine
It’s not just about fixing the problem – it’s how we go about it. We start by aligning the crankshaft and camshaft to factory timing marks, then remove the old belt and install the new one with the correct tension. We want to make sure your timing belt does its part properly. We’ve seen enough rushed jobs to know what not to do – and our work reflects that. The finish, the feel, it’s all in the details.
Care that’s clear from the first call
You’ll never be passed from pillar to post or stuck in a loop of automated messages. When you contact Vasstech, you get a real person who actually knows what they’re talking about. Whether you’re after a quote, some advice, or just want to know what’s next – we’ll talk you through it, clearly and patiently. It’s the kind of service that puts people first, right from the off.
Preventative maintenance that pays off
A worn or overdue timing belt isn’t just a small issue — it’s a ticking time bomb for your engine. If it fails, it can cause major internal damage and lead to repair costs in the thousands. That’s why staying ahead with preventative maintenance is so important.
Why not book an oil change at the same time? It’s a simple step that helps prevent breakdowns, boosts long-term reliability, and could save you money in the long run — all while giving you peace of mind every time you turn the key.
