AISIN Timing belt

Re the timing belt, if that has not been done I would get to that immediately. At 350K km it is a ticking time bomb. Use, specify, or supply the Aisin TKH-002 timing belt kit. It is OEM quality

Pros: OEM quality
Vehicle: Honda Pilot
Mileage: 350000 km
Part number: TKH002

AISIN Timing belt

I’ve used dozens of the Aisin TKH002 kits- they come with koyo bearings, a decent tensioner, and a Mitsuboshi timing belt, all very similar to the oem Honda parts. I think the only major difference is the Honda water pumps are usually made by Yamada and the aisin ones are made by aisin… I can’t say I’ve ever had failures with them

Pros: similar to oem Honda parts
Cons: Honda water pumps Yamada
Vehicle: Honda Pilot
Part number: TKH002

I can honesty just say I’ve had an Aisin, Mitsuboshi, and a Gates, plus original OEM by this point in the cars life. They’ve all lasted the 9yr or 90k mark without fault.

Pros: lasted without fault

Rating 3.0

crack is already visible in the first picture.. Heard it's best replace every 60K KM.. Also, there's a belt made by contitech that design specifically for peugeot/citron to withstand oil, and like what others have mention. Use the right and good quality oil.

Pros: good quality oil
Cons: crack is visible
Mileage: 60000 km
