Go here:
http://www.gates.com/brochure.cfm?brochure=2256&location_id=3487
It's the Gates site - timing belts for the '05 Solara 3.3 6 should be replaced every 90,000 - good news is that this is a non-interference engine so a timing belt failure will not cause major damage. It's all explained on that site.

Thanks for the link. I'll be able to put this off until next summer since the car will be stored over the winter

I heard that someone else with the same exact problem, solved it by replacing the cable that connects to the AUX outlet. Evidently had been using a cheapo - or defective- cable. Let us know if that fixes it...

Hi Sckeith,
 
No, it's probably a combination of other factors: Summer vacations, the economy, people are busy working of looking for work, not to mention all the stories about the Solara being discontinued.
 
We're still around.
Happy 4th of July!!!

Change of headlight bulbs by loucopits

I recently saw an ad for Sylvania replacement bulbs that are more powerful than the factory bulbs. I wonder if anyone has made this swap in a Solara (mine is a 2004).

I have them in a 2000 Solara.
 
They are brighter, but they also create more heat causing the plastic headlight lenses to discolor fast.

Seems to be stiffer recently. Is there any power steering fluid level I should check?

recurring rear wheel alignment problems causing premature tire wear by doode

06' solara convertible
 
The first time my rear alignment was out (toe in) it chewed my Bridgestone serenity's with only 30,000k down to slick. After realignment at 6000 kms it's happening again with mainly highway driving. The outside tread is wearing faster.
Any ideas what's causing the alignment to go out? Dealership has inspected the rear suspension and sees no indicators.
