How to replace timing belt Toyota Corolla. Years 1992 to 2002.

[@colorocko1]

What most likely would have taken me a week to do with much trial and error I was able to do in 15 hours. I took my time and stayed composed. I want to thank you so much for your detailed explanation and great closeups in your video. The job was rather difficult but your video made it easier. Your attention to detail makes your instruction above the rest. THANK YOU!!

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Yes, everything is easy, when we have good video !

[@markduggan689]

15 hrs to change a timing belt? Bwahahahahaha....sad, it takes less than hour, start , to finish....

[@mudzy9820]

@@markduggan689 needed that 13 hours sleep inbetween 😂

[@aviator5]

Peter thank you so much for your videos. My 97 is still on the road thanks to your series of videos with 295K miles. I've replaced the timing belt, power steering hoses, cleaned the plenum or air tank and replaced both the transmission and trans-axle fluid thanks to you! God bless you.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Hi and Thanks for comment. :-)

[@violin245]

last year my timing belt broke and i didnt have 1000+ to fix it. Niether did i know ANYTHING about cars. this video was a life saver and now i fix bmw v8's for fun. Thank you peter for your instruction and inspiration

[@dismalfist]

Thanks so so much for taking the time to put this video together. Especially for all the effort in framing the shots properly without wobbly/blurry/unclear sections, not to mention the incredibly straightforward layman-style explanations of the process. I've a little mechanical DIY experience, and I'll be doing my first cambelt myself because of your excellent video. :)

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

dismalfist Many Thanks for comment. :-)

[@truereefkeeping6022]

Did we watch the same video? Because this guy is seriously hard to understand lol

[@dismalfist]

@@truereefkeeping6022 Can follow him just fine tbh.

[@kn520]

how did it go? any issues or tips to mention?

[@dismalfist]

@@kn520 Hi there. Was a long long time back but happily got into the hobby and have done a few now! Depends greatly on the car but lining up the timing marks obviously essential. If you have a water pump on whatever car you're doing, I use old school hylomar on the gaskets and a teeny coating of red rubber grease on the o-ring types, but not convinced the red rubber grease is super amazing. Some say just use coolant to lubricate those. Progressively tighten bolts in a star pattern also. Also get a manual and watch as many KZbin videos as you can for your car. If it's a single cam engine it'll be daunting but easy and logical when you're in there. Good luck!

[@raycarr225]

I just finished the job. Thank you! What I did different: made a shorter harmonic balancer tool to remove the bolt and re install it; used a harmonic balancer puller; did not take off the plugs which allowed the timing to stay put; did not remove the motor mount, but the 3 screws on the motor mount towards the belt side (2 under and 1 on top) and pried it apart with a jack handle to slip the new belt in; raised the engine about an inch to closed the motor mount area that was pried open; cleaned the area prior to installing belt which was oily( belt was cracked all over); used the jack handle to push the new belt bearing to the side and which allowed the belt to easily go on; only removed the alternator and air conditioning belts; cleaned the valve cover gasket and added sealant or gasket maker to keep oil in and away from the belt; aligned the markings per your and other videos; rotated the engine as you did and which is an area that the lobes are not located. A very long and tiring job! Thank you again.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Good and Thanks for feedback. :-)

[@chrismoore1932]

Thank you so much for doing this video! I followed it to the T and the timing belt job I did on my 1995 Toyota Corolla 1.8L DX went smoother then I could have ever imagined it to go.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Thanks. :-)

[@raycarr225]

had to lock the belt tensioner bearing to keep the belt from jumping and while rotating cam. used a cylinder compression gauge to determine TDC exhaust and not intake cycle. do the markings! determining belt deflection- used a ruler. the tip on determining TDC was priceless-screwdriver(or object) in cyl 1,timing mark -0 and crank shaft marking, camshaft marking and crankshaft woodruff key pointing up. do the markings! there's a pdf manual on this model for free and on google. leaving vehicle jacked on one side for extended time may damaged cv joint on opposite wheel. Thank you Mr. Finn for your time in making this video.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Thanks 😃👍

[@girohead]

Another fabulous Toyota Corolla video. Aside from learning to do it myself, I came here just to check if it was a belt or chain. I was told by a shop that my 2000 Corolla CE used a chain and didn't need replacing. Time to order more parts.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Thank You. :-)

[@santossingleterry2621]

This video is the best that I have seen so far for this procedure. Thank you for sharing Peter.

[@Kazooie]

Thanks you very much! Because of this video I was able to change my timing belt and water pump myself. There really needs to me more videos like this on youtube!

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Good info. :-)

[@dondesnoo1771]

Kazooie make sure no oil leaking into spark plugs holes.my seal silpped down 2 filled w oil . I was able to put back .was losing oil. done this job twice not for faint of heart .had a pinto changed twice on road .good idea if old belt not broken to keep it taped off on side can be used in emergency wo. jacking .& test for bent valves.

[@Dansk55]

Very helpful. The crank pulley (behind the harmonic balancer) was the most difficult job. I had to tap two bolts and pull using the a puller I got for free from Autozone (definitely do this with the old belt attached with tension). For some reason the water pump was annoying too but very rewarding diy job.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Great tip! Great to hear!😀👍

[@NateDaily]

Awesome video! Thank you so much. I just did the belt replacement this weekend using only this video and one other for removing the air conditioning compressor belt. Have a great day!

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Thanks for feedback. :-)

[@fiddcsdonk134]

I want to reach out and give you a BIG THANK YOU @peter Finn. Ive had problems when i tried to replace my timing belt. When we tried to undo the bolt below we broke the cam shaft on the top. We did it the wrong way. And after that ive used your video as a reference to rebuild my cars engine with a new shaft. Its been standing for about 2 year. Today ( 23 / 7 -19 ) Ive turned the egnition for the first time and it all started smooth allmost. But in its in the right direction. Thanks to much reading and buying a book for the car it self and YOUR video helped me all the way. Again thank you ! And srry for my bad english. its been a while. Thanks you so much from Sweden.

[@Infernal_Elf]

Thanks alot for this fantastic Video i Changed both timing belt and waterpump. With your tutorials. And got it right first try. Only thing i feel should be mentioned in the Video. Is that the timing belt markings dont line up again after 2 rotations when adjusting the pulley. I panicked here a bit and rotated until they lined up again to be shure.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Hi and many Thanks for Your comment. :-)

[@SamEEE12]

Hi Peter. Many thanks for your video, it was a great help in encouraging to 'have a go'. The most difficult part was freeing the pulley at the bottom which was stuck and needed some encouragement with a heat gun. Had fun during the job putting on my best Finnish accent while working through the job - opening and closing bolts with the 'one two' socket. On a 416,000km E100 Corolla (1996) wagon, in New Zealand. :-)

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Thanks 😁

[@chuckarelei]

wow, thanks peter. i had changed timing belts in several cars before. but i stumbled on my 92 corolla and ended up having the shop do it for $500+. this video just pops up in my feed. so i was curious to see what i missed before. at 23.46, never saw that little nut from below on the engine mount. that explained why i tried to lift the engine up for more room to work on, the whole body frame lifted up with the engine too. not suppose to be that way. i was worried that i might break something else. now i know why. i have another 20,000 miles for my next time belt change. now i know what to do next time.

[@donpabloescalante3396]

Thanks for this video. I’ll be able to replace the timing belt of my friend’s car. If you don’t have the proper tool to loosening the crankshaft. You can use a long bar with a size socket and turn the switch like trying to crank, and then that will make the job more easy. It has to be before you disconnect the battery. So, continue the rest of the job. Just a trick

[@markduggan689]

DO NOT LISTEN TO DON PABLO....NEVER US THE STARTER TO LOOSEN THE CRANK BOLT....EVER!!!! IF IT SLIPS, IT WILL WRECK EVERYTHING...USE AN IMPACT , AND THE FACTORY FENDERWELL HOLE TO GET TO IT...

[@markduggan689]

It's not a trick. It's a back woods shade tree moronic idea...I wouldn't let you work on lawn mower for me...jfcsmfh

[@GAZZA55]

I find when I do the belt on one of these engines it is a good idea to do the water pump at the same time while everything is apart, and the crankshaft seal is worthwhile doing as well since the pulley is off.

[@ratbag359]

I am currently doing mine timing belt looks new with 90000km on it replacing that once cam seal is replaced water pump was leaking, replaced replaced crank seal replacing cam oil seal and all seals relating to the rocker cover.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Good point 👍

[@sima150]

Thank you for this video! It helped me a lot. When loosening the crankshaft pulley bolt i've read you can put in a gear on manual transmissions and have someone press the brakes. That way you dont have to make or buy the special tool

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Sima Brunner Yes. This works well with manual gearbox , but not with automatic gearbox. Good hint and Thanks !

[@wayneelley5629]

Wish I'd read this hint before starting! I removed the starter motor instead & used a crowbar in the flywheel teeth - it worked. The Haynes manual said there was a flywheel inspection plate to access the flywheel teeth through but my model didn't have one. Anyway, appreciate the video, thanks.

Actual timing belt replacement time for this car is less than an hour....it doesnt take two hours to change it...BUT you have to have the RIGHT tools ( a claw hammer is for framing houses, not for automotive work) , the KNOWLEDGE( see claw hammer), without the unnecessary removal of half the things this guy removes....you will never see a good technician use gloves to work on a car...they arent scared of getting dirty hands...

Hi Peter. Great video as Usual. I have a question for you. I have had Timing belt changed and all aux belts also, at a garage. Corolla 1998 4A-FE 1.6 AUTO. 95,000 Miles. It was well overdue and the belts were squealing. However, It has been back to garage as there is still a little chirp and squeal under full lock on steering, (Stationary). They have adjusted, but it still squeals under full lock. We did not change idler tension pulley. What would be your thoughts pls. Regards, Steve.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

+vandalstookthehandle Hello, your belts keeps squeal sounds, because they are too old. So, replace all yours squeal belts to new one.

[@RealVinDobona]

thank you for this video, i got a really nice old corolla e11 with only 130000 km, no rust and the only thing i worry about is the timing belt because its the first one still and i know toyota builts engine to last forever but the belt is with nearly 20 years to old in my opinion, i know the video is super old and you probably dont reaed this anymore, but Thank you you helped me out alot. EDIT: i saw you still put out new videos. I subscribed to you.

hi peter are the newer corollas cars from 2013-2015 better then the older models from 1991-2001? the olds one built to last for ever. how about the newer ones will they last just as long as the older model corollas?

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

[@192ali1]

Greetings, Thank you for the video demonstration. I have a corolla 1998 and I suppose it has internal timing chain and not external timing belt. The title of your video is "How to replace timing belt Toyota Corolla. Years 1992 to 2002." This makes me wonder. From 1998 on all corollas are supposed to have timing chain. Am I correct?

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

+Ali Umar Hi. Timing chain came year 2000.

[@192ali1]

My Corolla has a timing chain (not timing belt) and it is 1998 model. Thank you

[@xpacmaner23]

Is your engine 4AFE?

[@uvideohelicopter]

Peter, Two questions (Note: All work with engine still in the car): One: I need to change the water pump on my 1995 Corolla 1.6L. Is it possible to get the water pump off without removing the timing belt or the timing belt tensioner? It looks very tight. It looks like one bolt from the water pump sits near the belt and tensioner. Two: I cannot get the center engine cover off. I do not want to remove the engine drive shaft pulley (Harmonic Balancer) to give access to the bottom engine cover if I do not have to. I have seen from your video that if I remove the bottom engine cover, then I can remove the center cover. Instead, if I remove all four bolts that hold the Pulley onto the Water Pump Driveshaft, can I get enough room to pull off the center engine cover? Thanks :)

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Hi, Here are answers: One: Timing belt must remove Two:Center cover opens, when you tried to open it from all directions

[@uvideohelicopter]

OK. Since timing belt must be removed, might as well change timing belt and tensioner with new ones at the same time as changing the water pump. Thank you :)

[@elholm87]

Do to your good willing to show timing belt replacement of toyota corolla I could do the same in my Toyota. I notice through your videos that you know very well Toyota Corolla. I have the following problem: The buzzer of the warning lights on does not work. Probably it is a problem related to a relay.I know there are several relays near the clutch but I do not know which is the right one. Can you help me with that ? It is a corolla year 1998 liftback.1.4. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Hi, the sprocket is bad to open. So use plastic hammer and hits sprocket carefully all areas. It takes time, but it opens.
