Timing belt question
At what milage is it recommended that the timing belt be changed on a 2000 3.2? Also if anyone has had one done at a dealer what should i expect to pay Thanks G

Although they are warranted to last a little longer then the figures I am quoting, my timing belts are changed out after 5 years, or between 60K-70K miles, which ever comes first.
Rubber dies real quickly in the Florida heat.

expect about $400. While they're in there, have them prelace the water pump(add $100), themostat(about $50), and drive belts(just parts). Might as well do it all at once instead of paying the money again later.
check the owners manual for milage recomendations

Yes the 90K mile service has an optional water pump/timing belt service!! I paid 400 for my tb/wp service on my Legend because of a friend that works at the dealer!! This included all drive belts, water pump, and a new lower radiator hose
!! I would recommend you do this service at at least 100K...I did mine at 105K (it was just too expensive to do on time
)!! IMO 60K is just a bit excessive, sorry man!!

Decided to get the timing belt changed while it is in for the new tranny. New timing belt, water pump and drive belts. I was quoted prices from local dealers from my dealer low of $725 to $850. I guess things cost more in Northern NJ. Once again Park Ave. Acura comes through for a new customer!
