Postby solara90 » Wed Feb 03, 2010 8:13 pm

So, once winter is finally done i want to do some preventative stuff on my car. I have about 103K on her right now...

What is on my list so far
- TRD RSB
- Water pump/ serp. belt (possible replace tensioner depending on condition)
- ^ Coolant flush
- New rotors/ pads
- new struts/ mounts/springs


Thats all i can think of right now. One question I have is about the timing chain. I see they talk about replacement of it on the V6, but i dont see anything about it on the 2.4 in my chilton manual.

You have any other things i should look at.

Chilton manuals aren't that great. Especially if they tell you to change the timing chain on a 1MZ. Belts baby, belts!!!
Check your Power-steering fluid and Trans fluid, and of course your brake fluid. They always get left out for some reason. Also how about an oil change. Don't forget that. Top off the washer fluid too. :D

Nice! So I guess the trans fluid and brake fluid are still good and fresh. :sweet:

Your 2AZ-FE does not have a belt. It has a chain. Chains don't need to be replaced. Only the v6 has the belt, and that should be changed at 90,000. I have the 03 I4, no mention of any timing maintenance in my toyota manual.
