Want this question answered?
2001 Toyota Echo doesn't have a timing belt.
timing chain.
chain
chain
I checked the Gates website ( they make timing belts etc. ) and they don't list a timing belt for a 2005 Toyota Echo so it must be a timing chain . I did a Google search and the Toyota website shows the 2000 to 2005 Echo as having a timing CHAIN
when it breaks
The Echo doesn't have a timing belt. It has a timing chain, and this chain will last a very long time. Toyota doesn't recommend replacing it (as a preventative or maintenance measure) unless or until you have problems.
Toyota Echos have a timing chain rather than a timing belt so there is no need to change it.
It must have a timing CHAIN ( the Gates website does not have a listing for a timing belt )
No. This car does not have a timing belt.
Toyota first stared make the Echo in 1999. The Echo is also called Yaris. It was the replacement for the Starlet, and was derived from the Japanese-marketed Toyota Vitz and is a hatchback.
It was sadly discontinued in 1999 and replaced by the stupid Toyota Echo.
