This kit is a direct-fit service solution for 2008-2014 Subaru Impreza, 2012-2014 Subaru WRX, and 2008-2013 Subaru Forester applications with interference engines.

Key Features

• Gates RPM timing component kit with water pump for complete timing service
• Includes OE-style timing system components for a coordinated repair

Product Details

The Gates RPM product line focuses on timing service kits that bring together the critical components needed during a timing belt replacement. This kit adds a water pump to the standard RPM timing component package, which is important because timing belt driven water pumps should be replaced during the same service interval. For Subaru Impreza, Subaru WRX, and Subaru Forester models in the listed years, TCKWP328CRB provides a consolidated repair path for the timing drive system.

This part cross-references Gates TCKWP328CRB for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Timing belt wear or age-related service intervals
• Water pump replacement during timing system maintenance
• Noise from worn idlers, tensioner, or idler sprocket components
• Coolant leaks associated with a timing belt driven water pump
• Repeat labor from servicing the timing system in separate steps

Installation Notes and Tips

Follow the included instruction sheet 0098-9041 and use the supplied installation tool during service. Because this is an interference engine application, timing alignment and component installation should be handled carefully. Verify vehicle year and model before installation on 2008-2014 Subaru Impreza, 2012-2014 Subaru WRX, or 2008-2013 Subaru Forester.

Quality Assurance

Gates supplies OE-level timing service components through its RPM timing line, and this kit combines the belt, tensioning components, idlers, idler sprocket, and water pump into one service package for the listed Subaru applications. Part number TCKWP328CRB is intended for direct identification during ordering and service lookup.
