The Scion tC has a timing chain and probably won't have to be serviced over the life of the vehicle. The Honda has a belt and a tensioner that will need to be changed every 90,000 miles at a cost of near $500.00. The water pump should be replaced on both with the same mileage. You choose.

The 2004 Scion xB is equipped with a timing chain, not a timing belt. Timing chains are generally more durable and require less frequent replacement compared to timing belts. This design choice contributes to the engine's longevity and reliability.
The 2011 Scion xD is equipped with a timing chain, not a timing belt. Timing chains are generally more durable and require less frequent maintenance compared to timing belts. This design contributes to the longevity of the engine, as timing chains typically last the life of the vehicle with proper care.
The 2006 Scion xA is equipped with a timing chain rather than a timing belt. Timing chains are generally more durable and require less frequent maintenance compared to timing belts. This means that the timing chain in the xA is designed to last for the life of the engine under normal driving conditions.
