Question: when should timing belt be replaced in 1994 camry

I bought a 1994 Camry w/205000 miles. Owner said timing belt never replaced. Is it possible for car to last that long w/o replacing it? When should it be replaced? Water pump at same time? Cost estimate to do both things?

I own a 1994 Camry V6 XLE with 341,000 miles on it! I changed the timing belt and water pump at the 280,000 mile mark. So yes it will go further than you think. But the $750 cost to do the job was better than replacing an engine. Interesting to note that the surpintine belt broke during a rain storm and I had to drive 60 miles to get to a service center to fix it. Again no overheating or loss of electrical power during that trip. Simply the best car I have ever owned. Please note that I have never had to replace the alternator, starter, or recharge the A/C. Only Tires, Break pads, Radiator and Transmission have been replaced. Engine has had one tune up at 300,000 mile and still passes Texas inspection. 27 miles per gallon is best I can get. If you can find one that is in good condition drive it then buy it, you won't be unhappy.

You must replace the belt immediately! Period between replacing timing belt is 90000 miles but if you often pull trailer you have to replace timing belt every 60000 miles.
I hope you didn't get major engine work due to lack of timing belt replacement yet.

Car Brakes: How Do You Know When to Change Them?

By Zach Bowman For those who suffer a daily commute through heavy traffic, your vehicle's braking system can bring thousands of pounds of metal, plastic and empty Starbucks cups to a stop hundreds of times before you get to work. It goes without saying that these pieces wear out, but they do so slowly, meaning you may not notice they need attention until ...

By Brian Alexander, Road Test Editor DriverSide Overview For quite some time the Toyota Camry has been the benchmark for conservative sedan shoppers, an unarguably logical vehicle that does just about everything right. It’s a bit like the club sandwich on a hotel room service menu – you usually can’t go wrong. For 2010 the Camry gets a ...
