Question about timing belts?

hey I Have a 2003 honda oddysey and it has 125,000 miles. but I have not changed the timing belt! am i in trouble? or will it last a while longer. I know with timing belts you never know but maybe there is someone out there who has had similar cars and went longer without any worries.

You're not in trouble until it actually breaks, because your vehicle IS what is known as an interference fit engine. That means that if the belt breaks, the valves and pistons are almost certain to collide with each other, causing major to extremely severe engine damage.



That being said, 125K miles is really pushing it. If you were to ask me if you can make it to the garage without it breaking, I would have to be drunk to offer any such assurance at all for fear you might sue me if it breaks. LOL Here's what is recommended for your vehicle;

%26quot;On 1997 %26amp; later models, under normal conditions, replace at intervals of 105,000 miles or every 84 months. If vehicle is operated at ambient temperatures under -20 degrees Fahrenheit or above 110 degrees Fahrenheit, replace at 60,000 mile intervals.%26quot;

You're coming up on that real quick. Get it fixed now. Having it go can cause a lot more damage and cost you a whole lot more.
it is time to change the belt. that is a long time for that car.
It depends I don't know what kind of timing belt is in the car if is is metal it shouldn'r have to be changed but if it is rubber you should get it looked at as soon as possible you never know with rubber cux 125 000 is quite a few miles
It's not the car but the belt and you have been sooo lucky, don't push it!!
If it breaks while on the road, you will need to have it towed and the engine examined for piston or valve damage. Then you need available shop time. If you schedule this repair you will only be inconvenienced the hours it is under the wrench.

Plan on it being fixed not broken.

125,000 miles is past the recommended life of this belt, so it gave good value.
replace it. your on borrowed time, it could break anytime. an engine repair is more costly than the belt.
120K is usually as high as any belt is rated. Most are around 60K, some are even lower.

Usually you can find coupons that saves you some $ if you get it changed there.
