instead of the scheduled maintenance for the timing belt minusan mo ng 10000 kms agahan mu ang pag palit pero it is best if you use original pero replacements are also good pero when i use replacements un nga mas maaga ako mag palit para sure if ever namaty ung machina mo for no apparent reason usually napatid na ung timing belt do not attempt to start or else cra na machina mo

buy oem and follow the normal service intervals. simple.

pwede ba ako mismo ang magpalit ng timing belt?

kasi parang wala akong tiwala sa mga shops eh

yung sa rapide ang mahal amp 6K!

Pwede naman basta marunong ka or you have a good service manual.

But assess mo muna skill level mo. This is not a job for novice mechanics (like me!). hehehe.

on a lot of vehicles replacing the timing belt requires removing the largest engine support. kaya kung wala kang block-and-tackle or similar to support the engine, madugo yan. mga 2k - 3k yata ang labor niyan in places like speedyfix and similar. mahal talaga sa rapide.

actually on most 4 cylinder sedans we charge 1500 for labor of the timing belt replacement.

If you have the tools and the know how, why not? Sa SpeedyFix 1500 lang two years ago. Bili ka na lang piyesa.

Ok naman ang performance, maganda hatak after matapos yung job..kaso biglang naisip ko bakit hindi na lang yung japan at orig na toyota na lang ipinakabit ko kahit medjo mahal at least toyota talaga at hndi na ako mag woworry...ang tanong ko mga chong, tatagal ba yung replacement na timing belt? Mga gaano katagal kaya? ilang KM kaya bago ko ito palitan uli? Germany daw yung napakabit sa kin mga tol...please advise..di kc ako matahimik...baka kc ako maputulan kahit kakakabit lang nito...pls advise...maraming salamat.

nandyan na nakabitan na... infact gumanda performance ng car mo (as stated) next time stick to original oem products medyo mahal ngunit sigurado naman... kaysa sa mga hindi kilala na brand kunwari made in germany, uk, japat, us, etc... lahat kung hindi made in taiwan, made in china... (madali lang mag print sa product at packaging) mahirap na kasi, halimbawa nasa expressway ka magisa tapos nalagot ang timing belt diba...

with regards to the longevity and the time to replace the timing belt its best to check the manual of your vehicle, sundin mo lang iyun manufacturer's specifications...
