FAI announces a major warranty upgrade to Timing Chain Kits

FAI Automotive has reinforced its commitment to high-quality engine repair solutions with the introduction of an extended five-year / 60,000-mile warranty across its full Timing Chain Kit (TCK) range, offering customers more confidence than ever before.

For over 15 years, FAI has supplied the market with reliable, OE-matching timing chain solutions. Backed by proven technical expertise and a strong commitment to product development, more than 2.5 million kits have been sold since launch. This success is supported by a comprehensive and well-established range of 550 kit variations, covering around 90% of the UK vehicle parc.

Peter Garrett, Head of Product & Marketing, commented: “FAI continues to provide durable and high-performing timing chain components, designed to meet OE standards and support technicians with a dependable repair for what is often a labour-intensive job.

Our heritage is firmly rooted in engine components, and that specialist knowledge has enabled us to develop a programme we trust completely. Extending our warranty to five years reflects this confidence and ensures it’s shared across the entire supply chain.”

FAI’s TCK range undergoes rigorous testing, including endurance, durability, destruction and thermal shock testing, ensuring each kit performs reliably over a long service life. The programme also incorporates the latest OE advancements, such as high torque chains for modern applications. Chain flex is limited to 0.3 percent, far exceeding the aftermarket norm of one to three percent, further extending longevity.

Garrett added: “As engines age, requiring maintenance of the chain drive, FAI works to protect the engine by ensuring that the supplied kit is the latest OE design and going further by providing harder-wearing coatings on the chains. In essence, the work never stops. And we’re adding value to this with our new extended warranty, for the ultimate peace of mind!”
