hi,
my car is a little bit over 100k and it's time for a timing belt change.
from my research on the net, there is a new type of timing belt made from "highly-saturated nitrile" (HSN), and it is suppose to be much more reliable than the traditional fiberglass or kevlar timing belt. so my choices are the OEM stuff, which i do not know what it is made from but it is recommended for 105k service for my car. the other choice is the aforemention HSN timing belt which is suppose to be the best material for timing belt. and finally the goodyear gatorback traditional timing belt.
what would you recommend? OEM, HSN belt, or the Goodyear gotarback timing belt?
thanks for your knowledge and insight
