ED. Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Posted on GS forum but no reply. Looking at a 2001 GS300 and was wondering about the timing belt. Thanks
dcfish Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 How many miles on the 01 ? Has the belt been changed and at what milage ? When in doubt......
landar Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Posted on GS forum but no reply. Looking at a 2001 GS300 and was wondering about the timing belt. Thanks Yep, its critical. Looks like you have an interference-fit engine. Change every 90k miles or 6 years. see this thread in the GS section -> http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=60180&st=0&p=387613&hl=interference&fromsearch=1entry387613
ED. Posted January 13, 2011 Author Posted January 13, 2011 Awesome, thank you! That'll help lower their asking price
ED. Posted January 14, 2011 Author Posted January 14, 2011 Sorry, missed one! It has 108k miles. I've been reading the carfax and it seems to have some problems with the CEL or it has come on twice. I am torn though. Went and looked at a 98 tonight with 122k but it's my color combo (white and tan) but no Nakamichi. I am thinking about a 2001 as well but it's black so it will need a lot detailing to keep it nice. Not that I'm not up for it but I like white! Decisions, decisions...
