Jonathantphan@yahoo.com Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I did mine at 118,000 miles and I changed everything in that area such pulleys hydraulic tensioner, water pump, spark plugs, thermo stat seals and so on for $1000 at an independent shop. Car runs like new. I like to have a piece of mind. I hate to take chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwgang Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Just to add my experiences. I did my timing belt change at 90k miles, with coolant flush and water pump change. My mechanic told me that the water pump is heavily corroded. So I finally know why I need to add coolant the last 20k miles. Then 10k miles later, I replaced the radiator due to a stone chip cracked it. Leaked a few drops at first, then a major puddle two day later. Good thing my mechanic is literally two minutes away from my home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
