Hi,

I have a Toyota Alphard with 100.000 miles on the clock. I have had it for a year. Its had an MOT but I was wondering about service and Timing belt change etc?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Every 75,000 miles or every 3 years.

Hi I’m looking at buying a 2003 2.4 alphard with 80k on the clock, would this need anything doing to the timing belt/ chain if that’s what it has? Bit confused as I’m getting conflicting info. Thanks

Mine is chain driven, but I think 3litre engines are belt driven. Correct me if I'm wrong

3.0 is belt driven but if belt snaps don’t damage engine does not hit valves like other engines

2.4L have a timing chain, it just needs regular oil changes
