What is a timing belt?

The timing belt synchronizes the interaction between major engine components to ensure everything is “timed” just perfect.

How long do timing belts last?

Over time and kilometres driven, timing belts become worn and cracked leading to a possible timing belt failure resulting in a vehicle breakdown and engine damage.

How is this corrected?

Honda Canada recommends a timing belt replacement at 168,000 kilometres or 7 years (whichever occurs first). Performing a timing belt replacement by our Honda-trained technicians involves removing the worn timing belt and replacing it with a brand new, Genuine Honda timing belt.
