A cambelt, also known as a timing belt, regulates the combustion process by synchronising your crankshaft and camshaft which, in turn, open and close the cylinder valves. A cambelt problem can be disastrous for your engine. Your car can’t work properly without this toothed belt - your engine parts will smash together more than 100 times a minute, causing irreversible damage.

That’s why you need to look after it properly and book a timing belt replacement when your car needs it.

How Much Does a Fiat Cambelt Change Cost?

The price of your cambelt change will vary depending on the garage you visit. On average, a Fiat cambelt change can cost between £200 and £400. Most of this price comes from the labour costs, as changing the cambelt is a very labour-intensive job – many parts of the vehicle need to be removed to get to the cambelt, and then put back on afterwards, which can take several hours.

About Fiat

Fiat is an Italian automaker and part of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles through its subsidiary FCA Italy S.p.A, the largest automobile manufacturer in Italy. The company was formed in January 2007 when Fiat reorganised its automobile business, and can trace its history back to 1899 when the first Fiat, or as it was called then, Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino automobile, was produced.

Fiat's main market is Europe, specifically in Italy. Historically successful at producing city cars and superminis, currently Fiat has a range of models focused on those two segments. Fiat doesn’t currently offer any large family car, nor an executive car - you can say they are pretty exclusively in the urban car camp.

This Italian brand offers cars with bags of character and style. They’ve even developed new engine technology, such as the “Twin Air” system, which has placed Fiat ahead of others in their field. A partnership with Mazda has boosted the range as well with the introduction of a rear-wheel drive convertible sports car.

 

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What is the Recommended Interval for a Fiat Cambelt Change?

The exact answer changes depending on the model of Fiat, but usually, you should look at getting your cambelt changed every four to five years or 60,000 miles. To find out the exact interval for your model of Fiat, consult your vehicle handbook, or speak to a professional at your local Fiat dealership or garage.

Do You Need to Replace the Water Pump & Cambelt at the Same Time?

You don't need to replace the water pump and cambelt together - but you can save yourself time and money if you do so. They are both expensive repairs on their own because they are so difficult to access. However, if a technician is already replacing your cambelt, it won't take them much longer to replace the water pump as well. That's why it's worthwhile replacing them both at the same time. Plus, they both have similar lifespans, so replacing them at the same time can benefit your car's performance.

Does My Warranty Cover a Cambelt Change?

No, your warranty won't always cover the cost of a cambelt change as most new car warranties only last 3 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes sooner. These have usually expired by the time you need to think about a timing belt replacement. An extended car warranty may cover your cambelt replacement, but you should check the terms and conditions before making a claim.

How Long Does a Timing Belt Change Take?

A cambelt change takes between 3-6 hours. The belt is buried deep within the engine and so isn’t very accessible for the mechanic. This means that the price of your timing belt replacement is mainly made up of labour costs.

What Happens if the Timing Belt Breaks While Driving?

If your timing belt breaks while you're driving, your car will grind to a sudden halt. A combustion engine can't function properly without a timing belt, so you can cause very serious and expensive damage if you don't stop. Potential damage includes warped cylinder heads and other broken parts. In some extreme circumstances, this can leave you needing a full engine replacement - a repair that can cost thousands of pounds.
