Leading workshops in the Irish aftermarket often attain their position by adopting best practice repairs, which make sense from a cost, convenience and customer satisfaction standpoint. A prime area for such a policy is in timing belt replacement and this has been reflected in the dramatic growth of the Dolz range of Timing Belt Kits and Water Pumps, which are distributed in Ireland by Somora Motor Parts. 

Somora says that forward-thinking garages and motor factors have always recognised that the key to a comprehensive timing belt replacement lies in upgrading the water pump simultaneously. Dolz, celebrating it’s 90th year in quality manufacturing in 2024, steps into the spotlight with an expansive range designed to redefine efficiency and reliability in this type of repair.
