Timing belt Continental or OEM Honda

I recently did the timing belt, water pump, tensioner etc. on a 2007 Honda Odyssey and a 2016 Acura MDX. It's pretty much the same job, but I can tell you that the MDX was a lot easier.

I completed the timing belt this weekend. It took me about 6 hours, with a total cost of about $300 in parts. The original timing belt on my 4 year old van still looked new

Shop I work for is a Honda/Acura specialty shop. We charge about $1250.

That’s actually not a bad price. Paid $1400 at 110k miles for timing belt, coolant change, and water pump at independent shop on the families odyssey. $1850 from dealer don’t sound bad.

Paying $1750 for my timing belt package next month. 13 V6 Accord at 110k miles. Was this done when you hit 100k miles?

My 03 Honda Pilot was $2300 in 2023 and had 230k miles. It’s almost to 300k and hasn’t really needed anything done except general upkeep maintenance. It’ll need a timing belt soon though.

Timing belt is annoying, but not a deal breaker and makes for slightly quieter operation.

Overpriced and it may need a new timing belt.

The belt was definitely original and looked like black bean noodles. It was limping on its last leg.

Posibil sa fi pățit ceva asemanator cu piese cumparate de la Bardi. Distribuție schimbată de 2 ani și 6-7 luni, m-a lăsat in drum după 35k km. Din câte știu ar fi trebuit sa țină 4-5 ani sau 60k.
