You don't want to find out that you should have changed it 10,000 miles ago (after it has broken already)! And I don't know for sure how this engine is built, but when belt breaks on engines with out %26quot;relief slots%26quot; cut in pistons, - the pistons hit the valves, and make pretty much %26quot;scrap iron%26quot; out of things fast, - especially if you are going 70-80mph at the thime! This can cost you anywhere from a thousand bucks to price of new engine, depending on amount of damage done!



Some cars have belt changes scheduled every 38,000 miles some much longer! Length of belt life depends on the quality of the belt, and the tension maintained on belt by tensioner, - and generally they still look pretty good up to about '10 minutes' before they break! Cost is from about $20 for some belts -- on up! Labor is the problem,- as they put the engines in %26quot;crossways%26quot; nowdays, - and the space where you have to do the work is very %26quot;cramped, - plus you have to generally remove engine mounts on the end that the belt is on , and suspend the engine while chanigng it! Leave it to %26quot;modern engineering%26quot; to figure out how to make a 1 hour job take 3!How much does a timing belt cost?Yes it is time.
