vs
Timing belt OEM Toyota or OEM FORD
Reviews
My 96 Camry 265k has the original belt and pump.
Pros: original belt, very durable
Vehicle:
Toyota Camry
Mileage: 426485 km
I was in a similar situation on my LS430. I saw the sticker under the hood that was done 130k miles prior to the current mileage. The belt was perfectly fine and had most likely been replaced since. If it’s a genuine Aisin/Toyota belt it’s probably still good. I’ve seen these go far and beyond 10yr/100k mile mark
Pros: perfectly fine, long lasting
Vehicle:
Lexus
Mileage: 209214 km
the oem toyota belts can do 200k miles no problem. Even if the truck is almost 20 years old.
Pros: 200k miles durability
Mileage: 200000 km
I 2 late 90s four runners and ran them to 280000 on the original timing belts then I sold them and they still where running fine.
Pros: ran 280000 miles, still running fine
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
Mileage: 450615 km
Built Toyota tough. 20+ years out of a factory belt.
Pros: built tough, long lifespan
Vehicle:
Toyota
I bought my 1st Toyota T100 3.4l it had 198k miles, when I removed upper timing cover, the water pump pulley FELL out, the belt was about 1/2 as wide as new. Truck ran fine!
Pros: truck ran fine
Cons: belt half as wide
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 318607 km
My in-laws Toyota is at 230k original timing belt miles.
Pros: long lifespan
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 370148 km
My Ecoboost is supposed to have a belt replacement at 150000 miles or 10 years. I cannot fathom how it is supposed to hold up that long.
Vehicle:
Ford
I hate Ford Ecoboost with all of my soul. I drive a Focus Ecoboost with a fucking rubber timing belt running inside the oil, no way to check it but Ford says it should last 10 years or 240.000 km. Well.. mine lasted for 7 years and 117.000 km and with it slowly crumbling and destroying the engine.
Cons: crumbling, destroying engine
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Mileage: 117000 km
My 1.0 eco boost is on its third engine at only 80k due to Ford’s brilliant oil soaked timing belt time bomb
Cons: oil soaked, time bomb, engine failures
Vehicle:
Ford
Mileage: 128747 km
