Title: 2009 i30 timing belt replacement
Post by: gordoben on January 12, 2023, 09:35:32
Hey all,

First time poster, long time viewer of the forum.

2009 i30 petrol 201,000km of trouble free driving.

Busy life with kids and work. On my way to work today i remember that i replaced my timing belt at around 90,000km to be on the safe side and also with a genuine part.

I sit at work thinking, dammit i should have replaced this belt now at 180,000km.

I guess this is more of a sigh post as i know these belts can go without warning. I am hoping my mechanic can fit me in sometime next week and i will try and limit the driving of my car. I have inspected the belt and looks fine, but i also know this can mean nothing.

im very cranky at myself  :( :( :( :( :(
