Workshops can ‘save on remedial costs’ through system introduced on timing belt kits
Gates' latest PowerGrip belt kit comes with a complete accessories set to help workshops avoid remedial work.

Gates, a global provider of automotive drive systems, has announced that workshops could reduce remedial costs and increase profitability by taking advantage of its ‘Think System’ campaign, which now covers its PowerGrip timing belt kits.

An awareness-raising campaign from Gates aims to reduce remedial costs, increase installer confidence and boost customer satisfaction levels.

Gates has now added the PowerGrip timing belt kits to the ‘Think System’, which provides garages with all the components they need for a full drive system overhaul in one kit.

‘Think System’ aims to raise garage awareness about the potential to reduce comebacks and save on remedial costs by carrying out a comprehensive overhaul of the drive system every time a part needs to be changed.

“A complete overhaul achieves so much,” said Gates regional manager Darren Spooner.

“Increased profitability”

“Replacing all of the wearing parts at once not only adds value to each job, it helps to increase installer confidence and workshop efficiency, raises profitability and boosts customer satisfaction levels.”

Gates has said the following advantages highlighted by ‘Think System’ are:

• PowerGrip Kits include all necessary parts in a single order
• Perfectly matched OE-quality components in each PowerGrip Kit prevent costly comebacks
• All PowerGrip parts are covered by a single Gates warranty
• Detailed fitting instructions are provided in every PowerGrip Kit

The Gates range of PowerGrip belt kits offers ready-made solutions, the company has said.

In addition to the OE-quality belts, they all contain matching OE-quality metal components and accessories.

Kits can include the specific water pump (PowerGrip Kit Plus Water Pump) and also the appropriate thermostat for the engine (PowerGrip Kit Plus Water Pump Plus Thermostat).

PowerGrip kits are available to fit over 95 per cent of all European cars.
