I want to buy a used car?I wana know generally when should the timing belt/chain be replaced for honda,toyota,nissan?
I am looking at this 2002 civic with 90K miles...does it need the belt to be replaced?
whats the general criteria for hondas,toyotas n nissans(1998 n after)..90K/105K miles or 6/8 years?

I did some googling...it says..for newer hondas..its 105K miles...n so i am confused..(the car is not used in extreme conditions)
and how about for cars with timing chain? and for those which are like 98-00 model but less mileage approx 50-70K miles?

Timing chains don't need to be replaced. Timing belts were implemented to make it cheaper and keep costs down, chains are expensive.
