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!
Who has the best deal on a genuine Honda j35 timing belt in Charlotte? Anyone know of specials?
My in-laws Toyota is at 230k original timing belt miles.
I replaced mine at 80k when it was 8 years old and the belt still looked perfect.
When I had mine done a year ago, independent shops were quoting $950-$1,100 while a Toyota dealer quoted $1,200.
My 1994 Honda Prelude VTEC had its original timing belt at 242k, and had no cracking or obvious signs of wear.
I had about 205,000 miles on my avalon when i traded it in... that had the original timing belt.
I have a 2002 V6. I bought it new and didn't change the original timing belt until 2015 at 181,613 miles. I didn't have a particular REASON to change it then. I just decided I wanted peace of mine that I wouldn't get stranded somewhere. My old one was a little cracked, but who knows how much longer it would've lasted.
Timing belt is only issue with these.
change it. do it at the dealer, and don't use an aftermarket belt. I changed mine at the millage i was supposed to(70,000, i think), at a local garage, and he 'saved' me $10 by using a non-honda manufactred belt. fast forward another 30,000 miles and the belt broke. caused $3000 in damages to my top end, (bent valves, etc,) and was not covered by warranty (car, belt or manufacturer). it totalled my car.
