Timing chain and belt replacement in Chisinau

We inspect and replace timing chains and belts on VAG and BMW engines. Parts are selected by VIN, the engine is locked with dedicated tools and timing values are checked after assembly. Approximate timing marks are not acceptable where one error can damage an engine.

What the work includes

  • Diagnosis of timing noise, fault codes and measured values
  • Tensioner and camshaft adjustment checks where supported
  • Replacement of chain or belt, tensioners, rollers and guides
  • Water-pump replacement when it forms part of the drive
  • Correct crankshaft and camshaft locking
  • Post-start timing-value and leak checks

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my own parts and pay only for labour?

No. When both the parts and labour are supplied by us, we take full responsibility for the result and provide a warranty. With customer-supplied parts, responsibility cannot be separated: it may be unclear whether the part or the installation caused a problem. We therefore work only with parts supplied by us and remain responsible for the complete result.

Can I come without an appointment?

Almost always, no. We work by appointment so that we can plan technician time and respect our customers’ time. At busy periods the next appointment may be a week or more away. Please call in advance: +373 79 93-11-88.

What parts do you install: cheap, expensive or genuine?

We mainly use parts from manufacturers that also supply original equipment: suspension — Lemförder, Febi; brakes — TRW, ATE, Textar; bulbs — OSRAM, Philips. In some cases we deliberately avoid a problematic genuine part: EA288 glow plugs are BERU only, and the EA111 high-pressure fuel pump is Hitachi. We choose the solution that should not fail; avoiding a warranty return matters to us.
