    Could everyone, just for today, QUIT THE PARANOIA ABOUT TIMING BELTS?

    If you have to worry about it that much, GET RID OF THE CAR.

    You change them when you replace the valves.

    OK, but can we start again tomorrow?

    It strikes me that you just started another timing belt thread, you should be ashamed of yourself!

    The problem with the timing belt threads is that they end up sounding like "I bought a Ferrari and I'm interested in keeping maintenance costs in line with my Honda" discussions. One thread before that, we heard how much people adore their cars and worship at the altar of the prancing horse. Then you tell them 'Ferrari specifies 3 years' and it's a big whine festival.

    Maybe it's 3 years, maybe it's 4. Maybe your engine will blow up in 5 years and 1 day, like tmobileguy's 348.

    Man up and service the car, or buy some tools and do it yourself. But I agree, enough with all the protests. :rolleyes:
