Hi,

I have a Honda Accord 2001 with a little over 80,000 miles. Is time
due for timing belt replacement?

I asked several Honda service centers in the area and each one of them
gave me a different answer (and a vague one!).

Some say it should be replaced at 70K miles. Some say replace it at
100K miles. Others say 90K miles.

Whom to believe? And why?

Thanks!

Doesn't your owners manual say 105,000 miles or 7 years, whichever comes
first? I found this out with a google search, but you could have looked
in your owner's manual. That's what I would believe, and why. Looks
like you're past due.



Dan is right.

And if the OP does not have an Owner's Manual anymore, a copy can be
obtained from https://techinfo.honda.com
