Timing belt Gates or OEM Honda

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.

it’s critical that job is done with genuine parts. Have a dealer , or even better, a quality independent shop do it that will use genuine Honda parts. Most don’t. They use aftermarket junk. If aftermarket is used you won’t get a 100k miles out of that service interval like you should.

have it on my civic for a year now no problems.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a Gates timing belt.

Gates makes the best timing belts.

Gates lasted 50k miles …. Aisin or OEM seem to go longer

Super cheap minus the expensive timing belt job at 105k miles.

Turns out I did not tighten the bolts enough on the intake cam gear. A couple came very loose or out. Tore up the timing belt, the cam gear and valve cover.

I used a Gates belt that the marks were off last fall.
