Dayco TV

Following a coordinated plan to communicate with those important professionals installing its high quality products, Dayco, the world’s largest timing belt manufacturer, is using the latest technology as the means to provide them with the information they need, including You Tube.

Naturally, with a product group as critical to the health of the engine as power transmission, the quality of the components is paramount, which is a given with Dayco, as there is no distinction between the products it manufactures for original equipment (OE) or aftermarket supply.

However, alongside this quality assurance Dayco is also committed to empower technicians with practical and helpful information to help make the sometimes complicated process of installing its replacement components as straightforward and trouble free as possible.

So these three new video tutorials, which can be viewed on Dayco TV www.dayco.com, provide technicians with the ‘real world’ information they need to ensure they carry out a first rate belt and component installation.

The subjects of these tutorials are: the popular Renault 1.9-litre dCi engine used in several models including the Laguna, Trafic and Espace, as well as the Vivaro/Movano from Vauxhall/Opel, the Ford 1.6-litre HHDA diesel from the Focus C-Max and the 2.3-litre TD diesel unit used in the Iveco Daily.

Each tutorial, begins with confirmation of the specification of the engine in question, covers the prerequisite precautionary advice, sets out the replacement products that are required and then takes the technician through the removal and installation process, including any bodywork or subsidiary components that also need to be removed to gain access to the drive system.

Even more technical information is available through the garage area of the website and Dayco recommend that workshops sign up to www.daycogarage.com which is a free service and where they can find, among other resources, technical information specific to vehicle applications, general product focused service information, drive system layouts and Dayco’s electronic catalogue. Those that sign up will then also receive email updates when any new technical information is issued and for new-to-range additions.
