Hi,

I want to know what is the typical life of Timing Belt, I think it was put on at 120,000 miles. Some say it is anywhere between 60k to 70k miles. The Timing Belt looks great and ok, I want to know do I need to change it, if not now what is the perfect time to change it.

Thanks in advance for your help.

If I were you best replace it now-you past the 60,000 mark, it looks good but can mislead you and I do not think you want surprises when it comes. It is your decision.
