Hey guys, I'm gonna need to do my tbelt / waterpump in a month, but I'm gonna order the parts now since I have to get something else and don't want to make two orders.

What exactly should I change along with the timing belt / waterpump? I want to do it properly and not cut corners. Should I change the PS / Alternator belts too? And any misc things like gaskets or tensioners or something? Is there like a part number for an OEM timing belt kit which would include everything that I should change?

Sorry if it's a common question but I searched and could not find anything...

Thanks.

 

I'm assuming a D-series engine?

There is no kit.

I recommend replacing:

- timing belt
- timing belt tensioner
- water pump
- coolant
- alternator belt
- A/C compressor belt
- power steering belt

. . . all at the same time.

You may need to replace the cam seal if you find it has been leaking, but that's uncommon for a D-series. Replace the valve cover gasket and spark plug tube O-rings as well if they're hardened or leaking.

 

^^^ right on.

 

Thanks guys, yeah sorry I forgot to mention the car, it's a 2000 Civic DX stock (so yeah D series).
