1989 Corolla Timing belt
Hey, I am the original owner or a gently used 1989 Corolla.
I changed the timing belt at 100,000 kms and now have 237,000kms. Can I get to 250,000 OK or do I need to get it done NOW!. -I plan on getting rid of it in the summer, so by then it should have about 250,000kms. Thanks Folken |

mines got 200000 + miles and i think youre pushing it.. change it NOW.. it can break anytime at that mileage.. sure, it can make it to 250k .. maybe even 300k.. but it can brake before that and as time past the greater the chance.... so it now or face a risk to do a valve job while changing your broken belt... as in 16 bent valve at 45$ CDN each plus the time to tchange them...or buying a head which will include a headgasket, TIME again.. and more $$$.

Re: 1989 Corolla Timing belt
Scheduled maintainence for the timing belt is every 96,000km. If its been 96k its time to change it, and soon.
