Cambelt Question

How often should a cambelt be changed on a 95 TT Supe?

Andy

how many miles on the clock

I think it's about 60K Andy, If you're not sure when it has been done, it's probably worth changing it along with tensioner anyway.

Speak to Whifbitz or Phoenix

I'd only use a Supra garage as you need a special tool for the crank pulley.

Phew, thats not so bad. it was last done after the car had done 35,000 miles on it (which seemed a bit premature?). This was 5 years ago. The car has done nearly 50,000 since then. Only just realised and was dead scared, as I had a niggling feeling I should get it done about now. Dont put many miles on the car, but think I will get it done in January (when I have some money!) to be on the safe side. thank you!

Andy

p.S. Supro, well scared about something else too! Just took some pictures of my standard airbox to show a fella who is buying it, opened it up (for the first time ever) and there is no filter in it! Cant believe the garage I got it from. Need that air filter as soon as the money has cleared, mate! Im dead scared now in case it sucks something up.

Andy

Mate, I will try to hand deliver today - But I do have a puncture so will pump the wheels and see if it holds

Mate, your an absolute star. Thank you.

Andy

there is no filter in it!

What the hell! Who would do that!

Toyota recommend changing every 5 years. Not sure what the alternative mileage recommendation is though.

Of course, despite taking my prev supe to Toyota for servicing, it was only after 6 years without change that they said to me - you know we normally recommend changing this every 5 years on the Supra - helpful.

Geez Andy... someone up there is looking out for you. Have fun installing the new filter - can just imagine you out in the dark with your head in the engine bay!
