hi, my son,s renault megan 2ltr 16 valve cam belt snapped at 5 mph, would it have cased damage to the valves! the water pump is also driven by the cam belt, would it make sense to change that as well! any tips or thoughts please
If you fit the cambelt turn the engine over by hand first before
doing a compresion test!

It's not just the valves, it could be the pistons too. Even at 5mph the engine is turning at about 1500 rpm!
