+1 on this.
I also recently had my timing belt, tensioner bearings, pulleys and oil seals replaced. Binili ko yung original parts from Banawe (Mit-Parts) then I had them installed sa isang shop sa Pasig. Cost me way less than it would have kung sa casa ko pinagawa lahat.

On the other hand if a shop will give you a warranty on your parts, then it might be better to go that route. Just make sure they use the parts you like that they can also warranty.
Agree with above comments - tensioner, oil seals, change oil ka na rin (and filter), and all drive belts. Might also be just the right time to check and adjust timing if necessary.

November 15th, 2007 02:37 PM #13Can I take this opportunity to ask kung kailangan na ba dapat palitan ang timing belt ng sasakyan ko (Nissan Terrano '98) Halos once a week ko lang ginagamit or for out of town trips lang, mileage ngayon ay 67K, di pa sya napalitan simula umpisa, pero mukhang ok pa naman, walang pang sira and band nya. Tnx for the help.

I suggest palitan mo na, regardless of frequency of use, and even if the original timing belt still looks good for another 60,000kms. Engine damage as a result of a snapped timing belt is a high price to pay, compared to the cost of simply replacing the belt. For best results, consult your owner's manual, or you can have it evaluated at a competent service shop.
I was inspecting the original timing belt that came with my ride, mukhang ok pa rin kung tutuusin; no frays, no cracks and the rubber wasn't very brittle (umabot pa ng 70,000kms). Pero nung hindi ko pa pinapalitan, pansin ko na mahina ang hatak ng makina, plus hindi ako makabiyahe ng out-of-town due to the constant fear of having the timing belt snap in the middle of the trip.Last edited by Bogeyman; November 15th, 2007 at 03:00 PM.

I think there are Terrano model that uses timing chain instead of timing belt which last longer. so make sure what your engine has. If its a belt I think its already overdue. khit mababa pa mileage mo. para lang din mga tires, khit dipa kalbo, pero kung masyado ng matagal need na rin palitan kc brittle na.

Mas ok nga kung sa suki mong talyer ipagawa - para may tiwala ka. But better to ask the mechanic if he has done any t-belt replacement on a Civic. Better still if he has a workshop/service manual for your car. The manual will show the timing marks and torque settings.
After t-belt replacement and if the car's timing was set correctly, your car should run better. No need to ask for a separate re-timing for your car since that should be included in the t-belt replacement.
And make sure that he installs and dates the sticker that came with the belt. The sticker will be proof that the t-belt was replaced and when.
