In 2007, CRP Automotive proudly introduced the Pro Series ContiTech Timing Kits complete with timing belt, tensioners (hydraulic when applicable), idlers, and a water pump. After receiving an overwhelmingly positive response from professional repair technicians, we decided to take this great idea and make it better. In 2010, we introduced our Pro Series Plus kits. This line contains everything the Pro Series line has to offer plus the addition of cam and balance shaft seals. In 2015, we decided to make our best kits even better. We UPGRADED many of our the Pro Series and Pro Series PLUS Kits with even more OEM content along with a guarantee that matches the manufacturer’s service interval up to 120,000 miles. Comprehensive parts kit: Hydraulic Damper – For applications requiring the use of a hydraulic damper, Pro Series timing kits contain an OE-quality unit ready to go. One less thing to slow you down. Water Pump – An OE-quality water pump is included in all Pro Series timing kits, along with any necessary seals and gaskets. In selected cases, we even offer an option of metal or plastic impellers and a choice of housing or no housing. Timing Belt – A durable OE-quality ContiTech timing belt is the heart of every Pro Series kit, and it’s covered by a written guarantee that matches the vehicle’s original service interval. Idlers – All necessary idlers and pulleys for the belt path are included in Pro Series timing kits. OE-quality, of course. Tensioner – A Pro-Series OE-Quality tensioner will keep the proper amount of tension on the timing belt system. Cam and Balance Shaft Seals – The new Pro Series Plus kits add these critical seals to the already strong Pro Series parts list.

Product Features:

• OE-Quality timing belt kits complete with water pumps
• Contain ContiTech timing belts
• Hydraulic Damper where applicable
• Cam and Balance Shaft Seals in the new Pro Series Plus kits
• Covered by a lifetime guarantee, based on vehicle manufacturers’ recommended belt change interval – printed Guarantee Certificate included in every box Why you should recommend a Pro Series Timing Belt Kit.
