Continental TB328LK5 Engine Timing Belt Kit with Water Pump

Continental Pro Series Timing Belt Kit

Continental Pro Series TB328LK5 is an engine timing belt kit with water pump for select Subaru applications. It combines OEM-quality timing components with a metal-impeller water pump, timing marks, and OE-style tensioning parts for service work on interference engines.

Key Features

• Engine timing belt kit with water pump for Subaru timing service
• Includes a timing belt with 281 teeth, mod-curvilinear tooth profile, and 88.50 in. length
• Metal impeller water pump included
• Timing marks included for alignment during installation
• Includes tensioner and seal components as listed in the product specifications
• Recommended timing kit change interval: 100,000 miles

Product Details

The Continental Pro Series line focuses on OE-quality replacement components for timing system service. TB328LK5 is built around the timing belt, water pump, idlers, and tensioning components needed for a complete timing belt job on covered Subaru engines. This kit is listed for 2002 Subaru Impreza, 2003 Subaru Impreza built to 8/31/02, and 2004-2005 Subaru Impreza with interference engine applications. It is also a direct cross-reference for Gates TCKWP328A.

Use Continental TB328LK5 when servicing a Subaru Impreza timing system that requires a water pump, hydraulic tensioner, and matching belt geometry. The metal impeller pump and timing-marked belt support accurate reassembly during scheduled maintenance on the Subaru Impreza platform.

Common Problems This Kit Can Address

• Worn or noisy timing belt components
• Coolant leaks from the water pump area
• Timing belt service due at the 100,000-mile interval
• Loss of proper belt tension from aging tensioner components
• Timing system maintenance on interference-engine Subaru Impreza models

Installation Notes

Verify engine code and build date before ordering, especially for the 2003 Subaru Impreza application noted as valid through 8/31/02. Follow factory timing procedures, align the timing marks carefully, and inspect related pulleys and seals during service. Because this is an interference-engine application, correct timing alignment is critical before starting the engine.

Quality Assurance

Continental Pro Series timing components are specified as OEM-quality replacement parts for timing belt service. TB328LK5 is engineered to match the listed Subaru applications and includes the major components needed for a complete timing system refresh.
