I drive a 97 Civic DX Coupe. It is at almost 120,000 miles. Contrary to popular belief and what mechanics would have you believe, the user manual provided my the manufacturer clearly advises the timing belt replacement at 120,000.
I left my job more than an year ago to go back to school and am about to graduate in about 4 months. While a preventive timing belt replacement would be, ideal I am too poor to be able to afford one. I want to know if there are any warning signs that I could lookout for to know that it is failing ? Any advice would be greatly welcome.
Thanks !!
P.S. The car spent its' earlier years in the North-East and has running in Texas now since the last year and a half.
