Do the water pump, balancer shaft seal, auto to manual tensioner. Seals are optional but if they are leaking replace them.

replace all the seals, more than likely they will leak after you replace your timing belt if you choose not to

Ive got the same situation, when you say seals do you mean Tensioner seals...

Could you just give a list of the things you have to do when you hit the 105kmi mark.

Timing Belt
Balancer Shaft Belt
New Auto Tensioners (if not manual convo)
Inspect the Waterpump (how can u tell if the waterpump is bad?)


I thought that is all i needed to do.

Please add on if anything else needs to be done.

Yea use oem seals and water pump, and if you can find a stronger belt go for it. Ive been looking and havnt found one yet.
