    Timing Belt Frequency

    Hey all. What's the timing belt frequency on the 6A13TT.. is it 5 years?

    I've only done around 10k miles on mine but it was 5 year ago when I changed it during the engine conversion.

    Yep, 5 years. The mileage stated has varied a couple of times, I think between 45,000 and 54,000.

    Original UK Mitsy guide was 5 years/45k miles. Then changed to 54k miles. In the southern hemisphere they quote 100k kilometers, so 62k miles.

    I have seen quite a few cambelts over the years and have never seen one in bad condition after any of those times/distances, so no need to be overly cautious in my view.
