According to a timing-kit supplier bulletin, oil diluted by fuel on short, mostly urban trips can become abrasive to the belt, and belt residue can plug the oil pump strainer, the variable valve timing solenoids and the brake vacuum pump. Reported effects include loss of oil pressure, camshaft and valve fouling and reduced brake assist; consumer organisations report cases up to engine failure.
