I have a 2002 4 cylinder Honda Accord with 54000 on it. When is it recommended that I change the timing belt?

You need to be a lot more specific on the engine size and whether it's a single overhead or double and whether it's a V-tec or not.

My 2002 Honda Accord has a 4 cylinder 148 hp 2.3 L VTEC engine. The owner's manual recommends changing the timing belt at 60,000 miles if it's driven in temperatures above 110 F or below -20 F but doesn't make a recommendation for normal temperatures.

I believe your only reading half of that instruction.

Here are the factory instructions for that motor


On 1997 & later models, under normal conditions, replace at 105,000 mile intervals or every 84 months. On 1997 & later models, if vehicle is operated at ambient temperatures below -20°F or above 110°F, replace at 60,000 mile intervals.
