if it's not broke, don't fix it

NOT TRUE!! I just spent $2000 to repair the damage to the engine caused by a broken timing belt while driving on the freeway. Had I replaced the belt before it needed to be (at least every 100k miles) I would have paid about $200. Preventive maintenance is always better than emergency maintenance

the above is true. just had one bust on my 2002 quest. don't forget to replace the water pump while you're at it being you already have it off. waiting on this too can have you stranded.

before the belt broke it showed no signs and gave no warning . we were lucky the belt broke and did no other damage, ive heard some nissans other than the quests can drop the valves onto the pistons cause serve damage

When Should You Replace The Timing Belt On A 2000 Nissan Sentra GXE?

A 2000 Nissan Sentra GXE with the 1.8L engine has a timing chain, not a belt. There is no specific recommendation as to when to replace the timing chain. In most cases, chain-driven vehicles can go for well over 150,000 miles before the timing components are in need of replacement.

Does 1995 Nissan Maxima have timing belt And when should it be changed It is not having any problems but shop said that since car has over 160000 miles it should be replaced?

The 1995 Nissan Maxima has a timing chain, not a timing belt. If the shop is telling you that you need to replace the engine's timing belt, time to find a different mechanic!


When do you replace a Nissan Xterra timing chain?

you should never have to replace the chain. not impossible but rare that this has to ever be replaced. if it is a 2000 to 2003 model with a 3.3l v6 it has a timing belt which needs to be replaced every 105000 miles.
