2000 Civic Si Timing Belt replacement ???
I'm approaching 60k miles and the dealer says I should replace the timing belt. He says that living in Las Vegas (high temperatures), can cause them to fail sooner.
Does this sound right?
Should/could I wait longer?
How much should a dealer charge?
thanks

changed mine at 100,000 and just saw a little bit of wear. Don't listen to the dealer they just want your money and my $70 dealer Si book says 105,000 also. The book never mentioned having hot weather temps would change the life of the timing belt.
