Timing belt breaking
Suzuki Swift 2005 180000 miles
My car's timing belt has just broken down and I cannot understand why. I have been told that the cylinder head gasket, timing belt and even valves need to be changed. My question is, why might have caused this?

Buddy, when the timing belt breaks it means that the crankshaft keeps turning while the engine is turned on and the camshaft is not moving. As the timing belt breaks down, the pistons go up and collide with the valves, because there is a lack of coordination between the two of them without the timing belt working properly. Hope you understand what is happening.
