100k maintanence on 95 GST
 

so i think the previous owner hasn't done any major maintenance on the car.. (other than oil and brakes)

are there things that I should start worrying about, or things taht I should have replaced at the 100k mark? (its already at 114K)

thanks

Timing Belt, timing belt, timing belt. Get it done now. They are recomended evey 60,000. Other than that maybe just a tune up (spark plugs, wires, pcv valve, ect.)

the dude told me it was a timing chain?

does that mean it should last longer...?

RE: 100k maintanence on 95 GST
 

chain? LOL nah dude its a belt... your mechanic is smoking crack.

some cars use a chain, but the dsm's have a belt. Just different lingo, all the same thing

do everything you can think of. start with the timing, then wire,plugs,tranny,radiator all other belts,hoses.

BTW if you do get the timing belt done by a shop, make sure that they replace the tensioner <<<from experience :D

HAHAHA... no point in changing it if its going to jump teeth. From what i hear you really did have a handful with your DSM eh?

me 2 on that one. spent 800 bucks to get the head rebuilt and exerything i needed to get it back on the road, and 88 niles later the tensioner loosened up and all 16 valves bent. i was pissed.

i didnt even break the head the first time, i was doing the right thing in replacing the t-belt, and then it broke, so what should have only cost 200, now cost 2k
