2005 Hyundai Santa Fe 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic

Hoping for answer of a timing belt collaps.
The timingbelt om my Hyundai Santa Fe V6 2005 model did brake and I am now wondering if the valves will hit the pistons or not.

Hi arildhovland,

Thank you for the donation.

Yes, this is an interference engine and if the timing belt breaks, it would damage the valves.
