There is no timing belt to change. One of many reasons the echo is such a great car! It has a timing chain, and the timing chain has NO scheduled replacement time. The general rule for timing belts on Japanese cars is 60,000 miles. I do not know the specific mfg. suggestions. I will tell you that a broken timing belt at highway speeds usually results in a bunch of bent valves and scored pistons. $1000.00 + in damage. So do not delay!!!!! Here is a maintenance chart. I do not see timing belt anywhere. http://www.villatoyota.com/en/service/maintenance/index.spy?cmd=menu&menuid=536&make=Toyota&model=Echo&trim=&year=2000 Y-THINK-Y
