Know the Importance of Water Pump Timing Belt
for Your BMW
2
Owning a BMW comes with huge responsibilities
like servicing and maintenance which are
essential to preserve the performance of the car.
3
Moreover, there are certain parts that are
responsible for the smooth running and better
performance of your BMW.
4
Here are the details about the water pump and the
timing belt of your BMW.
5
Importance of water pump
6
The purpose of the water pump is to push the
coolant through the BMW's engine block, radiator
and hoses to get the engine heat away from the
system.
7
Moreover, the water pump drives off the
crankshaft pulley or sometimes the crankshaft
itself and the coolant travels outward using
centrifugal force and from there to the water
pump from the radiator.
8
Thereafter the coolant goes through the whole
engine where it absorbs the heat that the
combustion process produces and then it goes to
the radiator so that the heat can escape outside.
9
If the water pump malfunctions, then the most
probable reason behind it is contamination of the
fluid, high levels of vibration or a lack of
balance in the load.
10
Fluid contamination often brings corrosive items
in contact with the pump which leads to the shaft
seal failing prematurely.
11
Whenever failure comes from a lack of balance or
vibration, it can lead to shaft failure which can
cause considerable damage to the components
around it.
12
Importance of timing belt
13
The timing belt which is also referred to as
timing chain plays a crucial role in the
functioning and operation of your BMW.
14
The role of the timing belt is to turn the
engine's camshaft at a speed set by the
crankshaft.
15
This allows the crankshaft to operate the
camshaft in opening and closing within specific
timing with the pistons which pushes your engine
to work properly and efficiently.
16
However, if the timing belt of your BMW has
slipped or it is not properly aligned, then the
engine will not perform to its capabilities and
may break down.
17
Whenever you replace the timing belt of your BMW,
you must also replace the water pump at the same
time as they both work together for the better
performance of the car.
18
Moreover, this process is very expensive and to
avoid it you must carry out preventive
maintenance and servicing of your BMW.
19
Conclusion
20
The above-discussed facts about the timing chain
and water pump will definitely help you in
looking after both these parts.
21
Whenever, there is a need to replace them, then
always take your BMW to a certified BMW
automobile repair shop as it is a very
complicated process and requires deft handling.
