    Ask ko lang mga master... Ang timing belt ba meron expiration kagaya ng tires? I have a 2004 gls sport, acquired it from my father, 58,000kms palang sya.... Do i have to replace the timing belt?... Visually inspected the timing belt, verygood pa ang appearance, no cracks...hindi pa matigas yung rubber at yung prints sa belt malinaw pa.... Mahal din kasi ang timing belts, kaya nag aalangan pako palitan.... Thanks in advance mga sir....

    As per the manual it says 100k but most are having a timing belt replacement at 80k. It cost me almost P9k where i but OEM parts at ATCO and have them replaced/installed thru their accreditted mechanics just outside of their stores and charges their labor.

    Ok sir, perhaps sa 70k nalang ako magpalit considering sa age na ng belt although wala naman number of years ang replacement, better be on the safe zone....

    Manual says 100L or 10years but i prefer by mileage than by years.
