TOYOTA 13568-09131 Timing Belt

The genuine Toyota timing belt with part number 13568-09131 is a vital component of the engine timing system, responsible for maintaining synchronized drive transfer between the crankshaft and the camshaft. Its precise fit and durable tooth profile ensure flawless valve opening and closing timing. Because D-4D engines feature an interference design, timing belt wear, tooth stripping, or belt breakage can cause severe internal engine damage through piston-to-valve contact. The premium wear- and heat-resistant synthetic rubber compound ensures a long service life and quiet operation even under extreme operating conditions.

Maintenance and Symptoms of Wear

The timing belt has a finite operating lifespan and must be replaced at the mileage or time intervals specified by the vehicle manufacturer. Typical symptoms of wear include micro-cracking at the base of the teeth, fraying of the fabric layer, glazing on the belt backing, or softening due to oil contamination. As a preventative measure, it is recommended to replace the tensioner and idler pulleys together with the timing belt.
