Look for an older Honda accord with a manual transmission (MT). MT cars were made in Japan and last forever. I had a 1999 MT Accord and put over 600,000 miles on it. I changed the timing belt every 100K and kept newer tires on it.

Pros: last forever, newer tires

Vehicle: Honda Accord

Mileage: 965606 km

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

Timing belt seems cheap,im guessing aftermarket parts? Id ask for honda genuine parts if i were you- honda tech here,seen cheap aftermarket timing belt components fail and cause engine damage. Valve adjustment seems a lil high,it is tedious to perform. Reason for adjustment? We only adjust if the valves are noisy or run into misfire issues. Rest of parts are within the timing belt work procedure,ask if they can do better since they’re already there. Id skip the valve adjust

Pros: Honda genuine parts

Cons: cheap aftermarket parts fail, valve adjustment tedious
