That's why I made the video. It turned out crude, but it was worth it because of how great the damage is. The customer also did some sort of impersonation of the noise it made when it died, which had 2 service people come back to the some laughing hysterically and trying to relay the impression to me. It's definitely the worst I've seen.
wolfman9999999 Agreed! I'm a retired mechanic and I have to say that timing belts are the stupidest thing the collective Auto industry ever came up with! But, it is what it is. I own 2 Hyundais. A '99 and a '10 Accent. Just did the '99s timing belt for the third time. Getting ready to do the '10s timing belt for the first time (60,000 miles). They're not bad if you keep up with them. But for most people that's a pretty big IF!
That's a good bottom-line argument for chains, indeed, but with adherance to proper maintenance schedules, timing belts don't routinely pose problems like this. There have been rare instances of timing chain malfunctions, too. It's virtually impossible to guarantee that there will never be a substandard component manufactured for vehicles. Industry engineers may have been forced to bend to the will of budget-conscious project managers, or they may have been professionally qualified in their confidence that timing belts were a viable alternative. Their ubiquitous use has reasoning behind it, flawed or otherwise. Still, considering that we're talking about their use in interference engines, your point stands. ; ]
I can only imagine how that sounded and felt. If it happened while moving, that must have scared the shit out of at least one person. Ha! "Carnage" is an appropriate word choice. This probably would have occurred at higher mileage anyway, if the engine had continued to survive the mechanical flaws that appear to be at fault here for its early demise. Why? Because someone like this owner -- who either wouldn't pay for, or insist that the warranty company pay for, a new timing belt on a used motor that's far enough disassembled to prompt the offer of a 50% cut in labor charges -- is probably the kind of person who never checks the oil, or who turns up the radio volume to 'fix' odd noises. While unlikely, a stout, unattended timing belt that defied life expectancy might have been left to miraculously run until 200,000 miles before the same result manifested. Those assumptions may be wrong, but I bet I'm correct when I say that the warranty company was washing its hands of any further obligation with its refusal to cover the cost of a timing belt job. They paid for an engine replacement and didn't want to incur one more expense. They couldn't care less at that point if the timing belt on the used engine broke on the way out of the shop. "Not our problem."
That head and those pistons are toast. It's amazing to see how the spark plugs were crushed and the valves got stuck in the pistons. Are you going to salvage the block, get new pistons and a new head?
+Prepare2Survive I put a used engine in. That engine would only be salvaged if it were a rare/exotic car where a head is either unobtainable or costs $10k+.
My 2010 kia rio lx 1.6 timing belt broke while doing 30 mph All it did was the battery light came on the it died no sounds at all Can it be fixed or am i screwed Please and thank you
Probably screwed, but not hearing noises is a possible win. The battery light comes on if the alternator stops (usually because of a broken drive/accessory/serp belt) but maybe it's because the engine stopped. Good luck! 👍
@@Fopeano maybe the new ho alternator went bad not sure what's going on just when trying to start just a winning noise Tomorrow I'll check the belts only one o can't check it the timing belt

holy shit...I don't think I've ever seen damage that bad. That's just incredible.

timing belt intervals on the 05 rio is 60000 miles
And this ladies and gentlemen is why I despise using glorified rubber bands to operate valves on an interference engine.

Probably wouldn't start after that huh ?
To say the least....

Yep. That's pretty much how mine looked.

Tomorrow I'll check the belts only one o can't check it the timing belt
Was it too difficult to bye a belt?
We didn't buy a belt. We bought an engine.
damn
j.f.c.!!
