The belt must be replaced with a new one if it has been removed. WARNING. When replacing the belt, be sure to replace the tensioning rollers and fixed rollers. Note: Always replace the inlet camshaft dephaser bolt and the exhaust camshaft pulley nut after checking the tension of the timing belt. Refit: the timing sprocket on the crankshaft,

Most cars require the timing belt to be changed every 5 years or 160,000 kilometres (whichever comes first). When you buy a second hand car coming up to or over 5 years old, you should always check if the timing belt has been changed or when it is due. If it needs to be changed you should contact a competent centre like BestDrive for peace of mind.

My wife's Renault Clio 1.2 (2001 with 45K) broke down a couple of days ago due to the timing belt breaking [Excellent condition, always serviced professionally, etc.]. Not only did the car shutdown faster than MS Windows, it appears this problem does a lot of damage on the way down. First indication is that repair is going to be costly.
The average cost to replace a timing belt will be anywhere from $300 to $500 in total (more for larger cars, trucks, and SUVs). The price of a timing belt itself is usually less than $50 but the majority of a timing belt job is spent on labor. The cost of the labor will be anywhere from $250 to $450 or more.
