FAQs
Do you use genuine Toyota / Lexus parts?
Yes. We use OEM or equivalent Aisin / Denso timing kits, pumps, and sealants approved for Toyota and Lexus vehicles.
Do hybrids require timing belt service?
Most modern Toyota and Lexus hybrids use timing chains, but we still inspect mechanical timing and replace water pumps where needed.
Should I replace the water pump during timing service?
Yes—if the pump is timing-driven or shows wear/leaks, it’s replaced preventively to avoid labor duplication later.
