My wife's 2016 Acura RDX V6 will need a new timing belt in about a year. I happened to be at an indy shop the other day and asked for a general estimate for a timing belt kit install and was quoted $600ish, which seemed reasonable. I asked what kit they used and he said Dayco. He said they would install an Aisin if I brought it in. Looking on RockAuto the Dayco kit is actually more expensive than the Aisin kit. It does not include the water pump gasket but does include a bolt (don't know what kind, doesn't look like a crank bolt) and a washer with a locking tab that the Aisin kit doesn't.
Has anyone had any experience with the Dayco kit for Honda/Acura V6's?
