take it to a mechanic. Timing belt can range from $100-$150.00

its not something you should tackle yourself if you dont know what your doing.

Do a search on here for 'gates belts' and you will find the part number for the Mivec aftermarket belt - approx $90 & can be purchased from any auto type shop :wink:
