Timing belt?

Just have a quick question how do you know when your timing belt has snapped if you can't see it. Will there be any auditory cues or will the car act funny?

Ya your car won't run, start - and won't do a whole lot of other things too

If you are going to change out the timing belt you may as well change the water pump while you are at it, as you must remove the timing belt to replace it anyway....save yourself some time in the future!
