deff something i would trust only a mechanic to do. That shit is complicated and way to crucial to diy.

wilp99

if you follow the instructions theres nothing that can go wrong. but some people just arent mechanically inclined. the only reason why im mechanically inclined is im cheap, and i fix heavy airplanes for a living. but it will save you at least 200$ by doin this your self.

i suppose so, but its very complicated and i think 1 hour in the shop is better than 4 tinkering with it. Good DIY though

if they only take 1 hour in a shop they arent doin it right.

I have minimal mechanical knowledge..but I would like to do this timing belt replacement. I have a 99 CL 3.0 and I am in greater boston area and the local mechanics
asking more than $500+ for replacing it. Do I need a garage or other heavy mechanical tools to perform this timing belt replacement. Kindly advice me and guide me through this process.
Your response will be appreciated.
