Hi all,
I'm sorry if this topic has been covered numerous times. I changed my timing belt and water pump yesterday (did not even know that the timing tensioner had to be checked and replaced if necessary). I'm going to college, and I try to minimize the cost. I went to autozone and bought the duralast timing belt and water pump. I had a local mechanic replace it at 200 total labor plus the 121.27 for the parts. Now, my question is, am I on the safe side? or do I have a good chance of the timing belt slipping... I read on one of the forums, that a guy had all sorts of timing issues when he went for a duralast timing belt. Should I be fine for now ? I don't have the money to do the whole thing again. I did not know, I should have used OEM parts... any suggestions..
