belt
We have a 2000 Altima with 121,900 miles and it still has the original serp.
belt on it and we are getting ready to change it. When are you suppose to
change it and is it hard to change?
We have had the plugs changed and other simple things for it. We still get
23-28mpg on it.
No complaints out of this Nissan...Great Car

Re: belt
The change interval recommendation is at 60,000 miles.
I always thought it was conservative and you proved it.
It is a safe project for a Saturday morning mechanic.

Re: belt
60k miles is correct, I know of friends who drove an extra 15k miles without the belt breaking. When the belt breaks it will cost you a minimum of $800 to repair the damage to the valves and potentially the pistons, etc..... So don't go to far
Call the Nissan shop and get it serviced

Re: belt
The altima has a timing chain not a timing belt to replace at 60,000 miles

Re: belt
Your vehicle should have a chain, not a timing belt. Chains do not need
replacement under normal conditions.
