#2 of 183 Timing belt change by roh75 Dec 11, 2003 (1:11 pm)
I have 98 Camary and do not know if I need to change the timming belt(s) and water pump, since I bought the car from a dealer. The car has 92000 miles on it.   The dealer is asking for USD 230 to change the timming belt. Is it ok. How do i know i need a new timing belt. I am meeting dealer tommorow for the service.
#3 of 183 Timing belt ? by canoe2 Dec 11, 2003 (5:14 pm)
I think it is time for you to change timing belt at 92000 miles. It's about $50 for part and 2 hrs labor. They asked $230 that is little to high except replacing water pump and other belt(s) as well including in the price. You could check condition of your timing belt by opening plastic cover for inspection. Make sure that you check their works after installing new belts. It happened to me that the belt for water pump was so tight caused water pump bearing failure after 4 months later. After they changed water pump, then the air conditioning bearing making noise ...

#4 of 183 Timing belt Change - 96 Camry LE by nikunja Dec 26, 2003 (2:31 pm)
Hi,   I bought this 96 Camry LE from a Toyota Dealer. It had 56K mileage at that time and the sales person said the timing belt is changed (which I do not believe). Now, it has reached 60K. Should I replace the timing belt now ? Someone told me that timing belt for 96 Camry need not be replaced at 60K. It should be done when it reaches 90K. Please advise.   Nikunja

Is it true that when its due to change your timing you also have to change your water pump? Replies to this message: leoniv (Sep 23, 2004 10:01 am)

Replying to: t0y0ta (Sep 20, 2004 8:59 am) You don't have to, but it's recommended since the water pump is right there after you take off the timing belt. There's no extra labor involved to remove the pump so you're really just paying for the part. The reverse is true as well. If your pump goes out before the belt, they have to remove your timing belt to replace it so may as well get a new timing belt.
#8 of 183 When should the timing belt be changed? by xingze_cai Jul 31, 2002 (5:10 pm)
I got 97 Camry, it is about 51000 miles on it. Sb. said the timing belt and water pump should be replaced every 60000 miles, it is correct for Camry?

Replying to: john_f (Aug 30, 2002 5:28 pm) You may have a chain in that baby. Also at my toyota for a camry 2001 says timing belt change at 90k. Dealerships love to say 60k I wonder why hehe.
