The 2007 Toyota RAV4 with the 2.4-liter engine uses a timing chain, not a timing belt. Timing chains typically require less maintenance than timing belts, as they are designed to last the life of the engine under normal driving conditions. However, it's still important to ensure regular maintenance to keep the engine in good condition.
You don't. The 2007 Toyota Rav4 uses a chain and not a belt.

I know of no Toyota Rav4 that came with the 3.3 Liter engine which does have a cam belt. The 3.5 was installed in the Rav4 and it has a chain.

The Gates website ( they make timing belts etc. ) lists a timing BELT for the 2.0 liter 4 cylinder engine in a 1998 Toyota RAV4
The 2.0 liter 4 cylinder in a 1999 Toyota RAV4 has a timing BELT ( it is NOT an interference engine , replace the belt at 90,000 mile intervals )
my rav4 has a timing chain and i guess it all depends upon what kind of engine installed to youb rav4
1998 rav4 engine wont idle and clacking noise from under timing belt cover
Your 2.4 liter - 4 cylinder - has a timing CHAIN
This is a non-interference engine, meaning if the timing belt breaks it will not damage the engine.
