    The average replacement time in terms of kilometers is 80,000 kms. the timing belt is a key component sa kotse bro. Pag naputulan ka nito overhaul na. Mura lang naman.

    I beleive most manufacturers recommend around every 100K kms. of course, you can do it earlier. Although my feeling is the 100K is proly conservative.

    But then again, better be safe than sorry.

    The owner's manual for the Mitsubishi Adventure recommends replacing it between 60,000-80,000 kms., assuming OEM belts are used. I had mine replaced at 75,000.

    Expect a shorter replacement interval if non-OEM belts are used, although there are claims that certain aftermarket belts are less prone to stretching compared to OEM ones, preserving the engine timing.

    Eh kung years ano ang basehan ng pagpalit? Paano kung 10 years na eh hindi pa umaabot ng 80,000 kms.

    If 10 years na, I would recommend that you change your timing belt.... Lumulutong at nabubungi iyan due to the normal wear and tear of the unit/material.....

    The purpose of a timing belt is to provide a quiet, flexible connection between the camshaft and crankshaft to keep the valves opening and closing in phase with the movement of the pistons.

    Timing belts are used in two types of engines designated "interference" and "non-interference". If the timing belt breaks on a non-interference design, there is enough clearance between the pistons and valves to prevent damaging contact. An interference design does not have sufficient clearance between those parts and engine damage would result from a broken timing belt. I recommend replacement at 60,000 miles intervals. Breakage is not the only reason to replace your timing belt. Looseness and wear will allow the timing belt to slip and change valve timing resulting in very poor performance, a no-start condition, or engine damage.
