 |
|
Hi folks, I'm new to the forum and am in the process of buying a Japanese import RHD. The vehicle is extremely clean with just 35k miles on it but it doesn't have any service history.
My question is - should I get the timing belt changed straight away? I don't know how many miles it should be up to the point when it should be changed but as it's now almost 30 years old it might be a wise move...
Would appreciate your thoughts.
Cheers
Chris |

| Yes, makes sense, however I did a little more research after I posted and it appears the 3B diesel doesn't have a timing belt so even better! |
