Certified Pre-Owned Timing Belt replacement?
I have a 2006 Accord V6 that was bought from a Honda dealer and came with the certified pre-owned warranty. It started with 45k miles in 2009 and is now just over 100k. My question is whether they might have replaced the timing belt before selling it with the warranty, or whether it's probably the original timing belt. Given the work involved, I'm guessing the latter.
If it's the original timing belt, then is it probably about time for it to get replaced, along with the water pump?
Thanks!

I'm a bit surprise Honda "certified" a car with 45K miles. Not that is bad at all, just I normally see less miles on certified cars.

Re: Certified Pre-Owned Timing Belt replacement?
I asked the Honda dealer about my 2006 Honda accord timing belt and was told that mine has a timing chain and does not need replacing. He said it could stretch but I would get a warning light indicating a problem that may be caused by a stretched timing chain. You might want to call the dealer and see what your car has in it. You'll need your VIN.
