 It was making this horrible knocking sound under the hood so I had to have it towed. luckily i have road side assistance and i got the first 10 miles towed free. I was 9.7 miles away from my house too! :-) So now im out of my car for about a week so my dad can work on it. -------------------- Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City

You just neeed a new timing belt, tensioner, and waterpump right? Thats why these things are supposed to be changed every 60k miles. Be glad you dont have a interference motor. Then you would be looking at thousands of dollars
 Toyota Timing belts, tensioner, and waterpumps are cheap

Then you would be looking at thousands of dollars Toyota Timing belts, tensioner, and waterpumps are cheap[right][snapback]246840[/snapback][/right] I have 165,000 miles - ORIGINAL Timing belt, Water Pump, and most prob tensioner on my Ford Festiva... I just changed the fan belt at 160K miles for the first time... My 95 Celica GT has original Water pump +tensioner at 113K.. (timing belt changed at 52K by previous owner) I dont buy that 60K rule theory...As you can see 165K and still going strong...Ill wait till things break...the fix it...and i drive both cars hard and fast.. Everything I bought from toyota costs an arm and a leg---I always buy aftermarket or junkyard first... good luck! |
