    I replaced mine (Civic 2000) on its 82Kth mileage. Bought original timing at Ayala Parts Center for 1250, Replacement Tensioner for 1,800. I have it installed at Auto shop in Alabang west gate. I have noticed smoother ride and noise coming from engine was greatly reduced. At your mileage you need to change/replace all fluids (coolant, brake, powersteering etc). Prioritize your belt and dont wait for sign to replace. Be proactive.

    field master is correct. your belt is due for replacement. better spend now till its too late. timing belt is crucial. if it snaps, it can damage the engine.

    if I were you, isabay mo na din yung crankshaft oil seal and camshaft oil seal, para isang bukasan na lang, mura lang naman yun

    Ayala parts center is at the alabang zapote road, almanza, las pinas. you can locate that at the right side, going to las pinas/zapote, just after toyota alabang and before reaching goodyear/ts cruz subdivision/dbp village. they sell OEM parts for other cars too like mitsus, toyotas, mazdas, nissans, fords, etc....

    alabang west gate is in filinvest corporate city. from commerce avenue, turn right before reaching total gas station and going right at the corner where brother's burgers are located. from alabang zapote road from the filinvest/alabang exit, turn left at pricesmart which is in front of nissan alabang. or you can use the entrance where fitness first alabang is located which is left, in front of mazda alabang.

    around 3-4 hours for the belt. kaya naman hintayin pero it might be better to leave it lalo na kung papalit ka din mga fluids, etc. 1 day tho tapus lahat yan assuming you bring the car early

    HELP!! i have a 2001 vti-s honda civic with 32,000km. my leak na ang engine oil. pina check ko sa rapide, they said i need to replace the gasket/seal and obligado mag palit daw ng Timing belt and Tensioner...... is that normal? kailangan na bang palitan ang belt and tensioner? or just oil seal lang? thanks

    hope you can give some advise.

    I think you don't have to change your timing belt yet since only 32T km pa lang.

    Did they diagnose where the leak came from? From the oil pan ba, or baka maluwag lang ang drain plug mo kaya tumutulo ang oil. Pag from oil pan - they will just remove this and put another gasket (palinis mo na rin kung may konting sludge pagtinaggal yung oil pan). If from drain plug - all you have to change is the aluiminum washer (o baka kailangan lang higpitan). Either way mura lang to.

    May mga mekaniko na palpak: na-oovertighten yung drain plug at na-loosethread pag oil change - kaya tuloy tumutulo.

    I hope the leak is not from other parts of the engine.

    ok pre, thanks for the advise. i hope its only the gasket. alam mo, mahirap na talaga kumita ng pera ngayon. kahit maliit lang na sira, sasabihin ng mga shop, lahat na papalitan.. stupid! sige.

    depends which seal it is, kung dun sa may timing belt, and nabasa yung belt mo ng oil, it is better to replace it.

    ang hirap kasi minsan sa mga talyer. kahit seal lang ang papalitan, they will tell you to change the other parts. anyway, do you have any recommended shops for this kind of service? mas maganda kung expert sa honda. thanks
