A mouse got itself in behind the timing cover on my dad's Tundra. The mouse got et, the engine jumped time. Somehow the valves were OK. New belt and a bit of gore removal and it was back to normal.

Pros: valves were OK
Cons: engine jumped time
Vehicle: Toyota Tundra

Change the lower ball joints, timing belt and associated parts and it\u2019ll run for years. The 3.4 engines are tanks, really hard to kill and you\u2019ll easily find ones that are hitting 500k+

Pros: hard to kill, runs for years
Vehicle: Toyota

XV20 Camrys never die. My 97 is at 238k, recently just did spark plugs and wires, did valve cover gasket and water pump/timing belt at like 200k. Running strong and smooth. Regular maintenance on these cars is easy and cheaper than a car note.

Pros: running strong and smooth, easy maintenance
Cons: requires regular maintenance

I’ve seen the genuine Toyota belts go well over 100k before they give up. They were 60k belts years ago that would usually cross 100 and occasionally double the recommended interval before they broke.

Pros: long-lasting, exceeds interval
Vehicle: Toyota
Mileage: 160000 km

This was the most frustrating repair I've ever done. I've done plenty of timing belt/chain jobs before but this one sucked.

You can't tell if the timing marks are lined up, the belt doesn't have marks on it and no where on line tells you how many belt teeth there should be from one mark to the others to check your work. I buttoned it up and was off a tooth on the driver's side, I could have set the truck on fire. It worked fine after I did the job a second time.

Pros: worked fine after second try
Cons: frustrating repair, hard to align
Vehicle: Toyota 4runner

The timing belt on the 4.7 engine needs changing every 100k, which is stupid.

Cons: needs frequent changing, stupid

Pros: chewed up timing belt
Cons: snapped timing belt
Vehicle: Toyota Soarer

I experienced this as well. Bought a kit and the belt was sooooo hard to get on. Like I knew it wasn’t going to be easy but man it was hard to get on. The belt broke after less than 10k miles. Everything was marked genuine, etc.

Cons: hard to install, broke quickly
Mileage: 10000 km
