Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a T5 belt?

A T5 belt is a timing belt with a 5 mm tooth pitch, designed for synchronous motion and accurate power transmission in industrial systems.

2. Does a VW T5 have a timing belt?

Yes, the Volkswagen T5 typically uses a timing belt (not a chain) to synchronize the camshaft and crankshaft, ensuring smooth engine performance.

3. When should I change the timing belt on my T5?

For the VW T5, the timing belt should generally be replaced every 60,000–80,000 miles or as per the manufacturer’s recommendation.

4. How thick is a T5 timing belt?

A standard T5 timing belt typically has a tooth height of 2.2 mm and an overall thickness of around 3.6 mm, though this may vary by model and manufacturer.
