Well I guess it about time for the timing belt job on my 2015 Accord V6. It has 98,000 miles, and just recently I have noticed on cool mornings, after sitting all night, I will get a rattle noise for about 30 seconds to a minuet after starting the engine. Sounds like it was coming from the timing belt area and after some searching on the internet and a call a highly rated mechanic, I assumed right. The hydraulic belt tensioner is going bad and it seems kind of silly to only change the tensioner at 98,000 miles. I’ve called the dealer and a couple mechanics. Prices range from $1400 plus tax, stealership, to $760 out the door, indy mechanic. The mechanic said that includes a Gates timing belt, water pump, coolant, tensioner, and pulleys.
