Product Details

Gates TCKWP249 is part of the PowerGrip Premium OE Timing Belt Component Kit with Water Pump line, which combines timing drive components and the water pump into one service kit. Gates packages the belt, tensioner, water pump, gasket, and double-end studs to support a thorough timing system refresh on engines where the water pump is driven by the timing belt. This approach helps reduce repeat labor by replacing the critical wear items at the same time.

This part cross-references Dayco WP249K1C and Continental PP249LK1 for the same application. Use TCKWP249 when servicing Nissan Pathfinder, Nissan Frontier, Nissan Xterra, and INFINITI QX4 models listed in the fitment data.

What It Helps Address

• Timing belt wear, cracking, or tooth damage
• Water pump leakage or bearing noise
• Tensioner wear that can affect belt tracking and tension
• Coolant seepage at the pump or gasket interface
• Noise or drivability issues related to aging timing components

Installation Notes

Follow the included instructions and the vehicle service manual for timing alignment, torque specifications, and coolant system refill procedures. Because this kit is for interference-engine applications, verify camshaft and crankshaft timing marks carefully before engine start-up. Replace all timing-related components during the same service interval to maintain consistent system operation.

Quality Assurance

Gates positions the PowerGrip Premium OE Timing Belt Component Kit with Water Pump line as an OE-performance replacement solution for timing belt service. TCKWP249 is built around premium timing components and a matched water pump to support a complete repair on the specified Nissan and INFINITI applications.
