Which timing belt kit gates or dayco do you prefer for a honda accord.
Gates timing belt kits any good.
Go with oe or aisin.
To some extent i agree with people in this thread though.
So for a timing belt it might be beyond what most might want to do difficulty wise.
But the ease of putting on the belt bolting up the water pump i e.
There is a third party involved there and to avoid any question i like to get oem idlers tensioners water pumps.
Continental the tyre people also resell some normally look like gates kits they re normally very good value.
When you buy a timing belt replacement kit for your vehicle it s good to know that the kit contains everything you need to replace key wear parts in addition to the timing belt itself.
Gaskets all fit correctly etc was very good once all necessary parts were out of the way.
Tensioners idle pulleys.
Gates is vastly superior in terms of timing belt kits and radiator coolant hoses.
With aap 40 discount es123 discount code i m thinking about buying a kit and having my brother inlaw install it.
And definitely not water pumps.
Aisin is as good as oem in fact it may be oem.
With the pulleys there have been problems with the chinese tensioner puking all of its oil out and losing tension shortly after installation.
Essentially ring around the factors and find out who does it cheapest then buy that one.
Standalone serpentine belts though.
As for the belt people have had problems with the timing marks being mismarked.
I d call it a draw.
