I am wondering if there are many Tiburon's running out there with over 100,000 miles and if so what work have you needed to do to them. I am trying to determine if it is going to be worth it to replace the timing belt or not on the car.... I have 100,400 miles on it. I have not had to replace anything on the car so far besides the brakes, tires, oil filter, and air filter. I am getting the rest of the blets replaced on tuesday and am wondering if I should get the timing belt replaced as well. I know the reccommended is 60,000 but so far no trouble. And if the rest of the car is going to start to fall apart then it may not be worth the $600 at this point. Let me know what you think......
I own my second 01 Tib, I really like them a lot. Very reliable, as said before, you take care of it...it will take care of you. I have 136k on my Tib ( bought it w/ 89k) preventive maintenance is key. I've changed the timing belt at 108 to find out that is was changed already. No problem, them had a BG engine flush, use Castrol Edge synthetic oil (better protection) NGK Platinum plugs, and NGK wires (keep it Korean spec) changed v-belts the whole nine. You have these things done, (investing a little now) and you will be able to enjoy a much more long lived Tib. BTW I forgot to mention I drive 94 miles a day, six days a week.
