Do you guys take your car to the dealership to do the timing belt and water pump? If not, does anyone know a good shop in the Flushing, Queens NY area that can do this? Thanks.

 

My friend is doing the 105K service for Njzprettyboy sometime this week or next at his house, all you gotta do is get the parts.

 

Nope, i never did it

 

Im almost up there. I think im going to do it myself.

 

Hi,
Does anyone know a good shop or independent in the Chicagoland area for the 105K service?

Did you really go 200K on the original water pump and timing belt
Thats about when you pulled the motor which still had all the crosshatching on the cylinder walls right?
You are amazing!

 

Yes i really went there. And ill do it again with this setup (pending nothing happens to the car before hand)

 

i dont plan on doing it to mines

 

Yup, getting mine done at my buddies place right outside the GWB. Rates are way cheaper than the dealer, and the work is better. He knows this car/motor inside out....he has done a CLS6 tranny/motor swap into his 01TLP. Let me know if you need his contact info...

 

I did my water pump/timing belt replacement myself however I recommend Acura of Libertyville. I purchased my Acrua there and they serviced the car for the previous owner. I also had them do an alignment and my free trans replacement and have been very pleased with their service.
