Hi guys;

I have an 07 TL Type S with almost 84k miles on her. I recall when I bough the car that it wouldn't need a tune up and timing belt change until 100k miles but the dealer told me Acura recommends a timing belt change every 7 years regardless of miles. Is that true or will it be safe to wait another year?

Reason I ask is I'm debating on selling the car in about 6 months to a year and I'd hate to sink almost $1k into it knowing that.

thanks.

 

No need 105k. I don't buy there 7 year statement

 

OP, you and your Acura dealer need to read the manual....

 

I thought we discussed this in your other thread

 

Def wait till 105.

 

he wants a second or maybe a third opinion.

 

105,xxx get changed before you spend 5x the $

 

Sorry if I don't recall. Just went through major sinus surgery and daily constant headaches is affecting my memory.

Thanks for all the advise guys. Definitely not changing it now.

I got a good year left of my car before any major service is needed. I think I will sit tight till then before jumping ship.

 

Your car will tell you when it's time to change the belt. Literally.

 

Yet to find a high mileage TLX which has completed the timing belt service. Carfax does mention all of the other regular maintenance...

 

This is an 8.5+ year old thread on the 3G and not sure I follow your comment on a 6G???

 

The stealership is trying to sell you the job.
