What It Helps Address

• Worn, stretched, or noisy timing belt operation
• Loss of camshaft timing accuracy
• Engine misfire caused by timing drift
• Service replacement at the recommended timing interval
• Timing belt wear from heat and age

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine code, model year, and timing belt routing before installation. Use the timing marks to align the belt with the camshaft and crankshaft timing points, and confirm tensioner and idler condition during service. For listed applications, replacement intervals include 60,000 miles on some 1994-1995 Nissan coverage and 105,000 miles on later Frontier, Xterra, Pathfinder, Quest, QX4, and Villager applications under normal driving conditions.

Quality Assurance

Built by Dayco for engine timing service, this belt uses high-temperature construction and a saturated nitrile-based material selected for demanding underhood use. Confirm fitment against the vehicle’s timing system requirements before installation.
