How do you know if your timing belt is going out?
You will not know. It may look great and be ready to snap. That is why you are required to replace the belt at a set mileage. If the engine is an interference engine and the belt breaks you will be more than just stranded with a non-running engine. You will have major internal engine damage. Replace the belt at the interval that is listed in your owners manual and do not neglect this maintenance.
