What is the purpose of the timing belt in a car?

The timing system is a system of engine components that synchronizes the operation of the camshafts, pistons and valves, ensuring the correct opening and closing of the valves at the appropriate times in the engine cycle.

Why are timing parts important?

Proper timing operation is crucial to engine performance and longevity. Timing belt or chain damage can lead to serious breakdowns and costly repairs.

How often should you replace your timing belt or chain?

The recommended replacement interval depends on the engine model – e.g. in BMW N43B20 and N47D20 the belt/chain is replaced on average every 120,000–150,000 km (for belts) and 180,000–200,000 km (for chains).

Are the timing parts used safe?

Yes, the used timing parts we offer are tested for durability and functionality, ensuring full compatibility and reliability when installed in the appropriate engines.

How to choose a timing kit for BMW 116i?

You should check the engine model (e.g. N43B20), timing type (belt with VANOS) and choose a complete kit including belt, tensioner, rollers and seals to ensure correct installation and shaft synchronization.

How to properly install timing parts?

Installation should be carried out in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions: set the valve timing, tighten the tensioner bolts to the torque recommended by the manufacturer and check the smooth rotation of the rollers and the belt/chain tension.

Comprehensive solutions for engine timing systems – belts, tensioners, and rollers

Key elements for proper timing operation

Timing components are key components of the engine system, ensuring the synchronization of pistons and valves. Their proper operation directly impacts the efficiency, power, and service life of the engine. At Global Parts, you'll find a wide selection of used car parts, including timing components, ideal for BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini , and more . Additionally, we offer kits dedicated to specific engine units, such as the N43B20 timing belt. or N47D20 timing belt, which include belts, tensioners, rollers, and seals, optimized for durability and full compatibility with the specific engine. This makes installation simple and minimizes the risk of incorrect synchronization.

What components are included in the timing belt ?

Timing components are a set of components that together ensure optimal engine operation: Camshafts – They are responsible for precise control of valve operation, ensuring they open and close at the appropriate moments. Valves – Key components regulating the flow of the fuel-air mixture and exhaust gases in the engine cylinders. Lever pushers and parts – They transfer the movement of the camshaft to the valves, ensuring their proper operation. Tappet and valve covers – They protect timing components against contamination and mechanical damage. In the case of models such as the BMW 116i timing belt or the BMW E87 116i timing belt, kits with built-in hydraulic tensioners are used, which automatically adjust the belt tension, which increases the service life of the system to an average of 120,000–150,000 km depending on use.

Table - Compatibility and parameters of timing parts

Vehicle model	Engine	Timing type	Replacement range (km)	Items included in the set
BMW 116i (E87)	N43B20	Belt with VANOS	120,000 - 150,000	Belt, tensioner, rollers, seals
BMW 320d (F30)	N47D20	Chain	180,000 - 200,000	Chain, tensioner, guide rollers
Audi A4 B8	2.0 TDI	Striped	90,000 - 120,000	Belt, tensioner, rollers, cover
Mercedes C200	OM651	Belt with hydraulic tensioner	120,000 - 150,000	Belt, tensioner, rollers, covers

Why is it worth taking care of timing parts ?

Wear or failure of timing components can lead to serious engine damage and costly repairs. Typical symptoms include: Knocking and noises from the engine area – These may indicate problems with the tensioner, chain or timing belt. Rough engine operation – Damaged timing components can disrupt valve and piston synchronization. Difficulty starting the vehicle – Timing problems can affect combustion efficiency and engine starting. Oil Leaks – Leaks in the timing system can lead to oil loss and engine overheating. At Global Parts we offer original used timing parts , which have undergone detailed quality tests, ensuring their durability and reliability. Additionally, we offer components compatible with N43B20 and N47D20 engines, where, for example, a toothed belt made of reinforced rubber with aramid fiber guarantees increased resistance to stretching, and the guide rollers have a rotational precision of ±0.05 mm, which affects the even operation of the camshafts.

How to choose the right timing parts ?

When choosing timing parts, there are several key aspects to consider: Vehicle-specific fit – Every engine has its own specific technical requirements. At Global Parts, you'll find timing belt parts perfectly suited to BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , and Mini . and others . Technical condition – Used timing parts should be free from mechanical damage, corrosion and excessive wear. Timing System Type – Depending on your vehicle, you may need components for belt timing, chain timing, or variable valve timing systems. Additionally, complete BMW E87 116i timing belt kits are available for the BMW 116i and E87, with step-by-step installation instructions, including bolt tightening torques and valve timing procedures. Using a genuine parts kit minimizes the risk of errors during replacement and ensures full compatibility with VANOS systems in N43/N47 engines.

Why choose used timing parts ?

Used car parts , such as timing belt parts, are a practical solution that allows you to save money while maintaining high quality. By choosing used timing belt parts, you gain: Lower costs – Used items are much cheaper than new ones, but offer just as high quality. Ecology – Recycling car parts supports environmental protection and reduces waste. A wide range – In our store you will find timing parts for the most popular car brands. Practical examples: the N43B20 timing belt kit allows for a complete replacement of the belt, rollers and tensioner in one set, which speeds up service and reduces installation costs by approximately 25% compared to purchasing the parts separately.

How to take care of timing parts ?

To ensure that timing parts function reliably for a long time, it is worth following a few rules: Replace the timing belt or chain and tensioners regularly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Check the condition of gaskets and seals to avoid oil leaks and loss of system tightness. Avoid overloading the engine, which can accelerate wear of timing components. If you need a replacement, you'll find the right used car parts at Global Parts that will restore full functionality to your timing system. Additionally, it is worth using:

tightening torques of the bolts in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations (e.g. 25–30 Nm for tensioners in BMW N47/N43),
checking the correct timing setting during assembly (e.g. marking of shafts and pulley),
periodically check the condition of the guide rollers for play – even a minimal play of >0.1 mm can affect valve synchronization.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions about timing parts

Question	Answer
What is the purpose of the timing belt in a car?	The timing system is a system of engine components that synchronizes the operation of the camshafts, pistons and valves, ensuring the correct opening and closing of the valves at the appropriate times in the engine cycle.
What components are included in the timing belt?	The basic timing components include: camshafts, belts or chains, tensioners, idler rollers, valves, pushrods and protective covers.
Why are timing parts important?	Proper timing operation is crucial to engine performance and longevity. Timing belt or chain damage can lead to serious breakdowns and costly repairs.
