Dayco, a supplier of engine products and drive systems for the automotive, industrial and aftermarket industries, is expanding its timing chain kit line with 41 part numbers to cover another 49 million vehicles in operation (VIO). Additionally, the company is introducing the next generation of its AutoPartIQ inventory assessment tool—with new features for a more productive customer experience.

New Parts Bring Timing Chain Kit Coverage to 120+ Million

Dayco’s aftermarket team launched the line in 2022 due to the car parc shift from timing belts to timing chains at the OE level. The

, which feature OE-quality components, cover high-volume light-duty engine applications. They include all the necessary components for a thorough and complete repair, building on Dayco’s mission of recommending system replacement as a best practice. Dayco says the kits include:

  • Timing and secondary chains that prevent stretch for the life of the kit – and address the no. 1 replacement issue;
  • Precision-machined cam and crank sprockets for quiet, noise-free performance;
  • Direct fit OE-quality, high-grade plastic guides, as well as VVT solenoids and cam phasers when the application calls for it; and
  • Packaging that features a QR code that links directly to detailed installation instructions.

      SMP Expands Engine Sensor Coverage
      By Counterman
      Standard Motor Products Inc. (SMP) announced expanded coverage in multiple engine sensor categories. Advanced internal combustion engine systems such as variable valve timing and turbocharging depend on timely, accurate data from multiple sensors. SMP said its engine sensors are designed for accuracy, speed and durability, and each sensor is tested and validated for performance in extreme conditions.
      Engine Sensor Categories and New Part Numbers

      link hidden, please login to view engine sensor categories include camshaft position sensors, crankshaft position sensors, battery current and voltage sensors, mass air flow (MAF) sensors, manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensors, coolant temperature sensors, throttle position sensors and fuel pressure sensors. Recent part number additions have expanded these categories. MAP sensors have been added for General Motors vehicles through the 2025 model year, as well as Ford vehicles such as the 2021 through 2025 F-150, 2018 to 2023 Transit Connect and 2021 to 2024 Bronco. MAF sensors are new for 2.2 million Lexus and Toyota vehicles, as well as Cadillac cars and SUVs through 2024. Coolant temperature sensors were recently introduced for vehicles such as the 2020 to 2023 Chevrolet Silverado and 2021 to 2023 GMC Yukon.
      Multiple battery current and voltage sensors were recently added, introducing coverage for the 2020 to 2025 Nissan Sentra, 2018 to 2024 Jeep Wrangler, 2019 to 2023 Kia Soul and 2019 to 2025 Lexus ES300h. Additionally, engine oil level sensors have been introduced for more than 6 million Toyota and Lexus vehicles through the 2025 model year.
      Testing and Validation

      link hidden, please login to view said its engine sensors are subjected to extensive testing in the lab, on actual vehicles and at the end of the line to ensure quality. Camshaft and crankshaft position sensors undergo vibration testing for 48 to 68 hours on multiple planes for durability and are chamber tested from minus 40 °F to 257 °F for accuracy in all conditions. They are then validated on actual vehicles to help optimize the performance of fuel injection and variable valve timing systems. Each sensor is end of line tested for timing, pulse width and signal amplitude. “Standard offers thousands of precision engineered sensors in multiple categories, providing our trusted partners with the industry leading coverage they expect from us,” said John Herc, vice president of vehicle control marketing at SMP. “But we do not just stop at coverage; we design and test our engine sensors specifically for accuracy, speed and durability to keep modern vehicles operating as intended.”
