Review on πŸ”§ DNJ TBK122WP Timing Belt Kit with Water Pump for Hyundai/Kia Accent, Rio, Rio5 (1996-2011) 1.5L, 1.6L DOHC L4 16V 1495cc, 1599cc, 1600cc - VIN C, VIN N by Ben Cooper

inferior belts, hoses and pulleys

Do not use this product! First I had to adjust some areas of the water pump and then in less than 8000 miles the timing belt broke just two 900 miles from home! Had to tow $175.00 and then spent $450.00 to install a new belt only to find out two exhaust valves were bent due to a belt failure in the engine so that's now separately for a $0.00 damage worth $1200 to repair! All because of a $50 timing belt! Since then several workshops have said to go with either the original or the Gates belt, nothing else! Very expensive lesson that I will not forget! You have no idea how serious such a problem can be until it happens to you! Very expensive lessons!

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • The list will be long.
