Timing Belt [Step-by-Step Install] 08' Honda Accord Coupe

[@brownrussell1073]

I've seen a dozen timing belt videos and dozens of car repairs videos. THIS is so good.

[@experiencedsolutions9963]

Wow, thanks!

[@drewwellnitz6667]

THANK YOU!! i was stressing getting this done as a very novice DIY, but got her done and this video was a BIG help thank you!

[@experiencedsolutions9963]

You're welcome!

How long did it take I have a 2010 3.5 J35z2 V6 it’s 40,000 miles over due thank god it’s a Honda but it’s starting to make that tensioner sound at start up goes away after warming but I’m not going to risk any longer because those engine prices are ridiculous to replace even the prices of the JDM version I’ve seen prices for this engine version $2700 hundred and up whew 🥵

[@drewwellnitz6667]

It took me roughly three days but I was only working on it after work. It was like 7-10 hours. But I took my time as this was the first large job I've completed in my own. But I m almost 20,000 miles in and have had no issues thankfully. Just have to pay attention and it's all pretty straight forward.

[@rosieclark3661]

I had been looking for this exact video thank god I came across it today lots of videos on here on how to do other gen accords and pilots and odyssey but a straight forward 3.5 j35z coupe is a rarity even on KZbin you’re a god send for me I searched and this showed up in my preview I was like wow I don’t believe it finally a 8th gen V6 coupe video about timing replacement ❤😂

[@stevemelnick6779]

very good walkthrough, first time doing a honda v6 t/b w/p and its nice to have a reference/guide. thank you

[@bobolonbobolon4833]

Love doing timing belts on the v6 Honda engines so easy compare to other engines with the chain

[@experiencedsolutions9963]

Yes they are!

[@zaappp1588]

EXCELLENT VIDEO!!! I was debating taking an '08 to my local mechanic. I think he quoted $650 several months ago.

[@experiencedsolutions9963]

Glad I could help!

[@Apulux]

650 I got quoted 1200

[@zaappp1588]

@@Apulux Sorry, that was just labor.

[@humer1971]

I have owned my Accord for 16 years, fourth timing belt. Life is good.

[@danjoe22]

Great job, you made it look easy but it is rather involved. I have a 2010 accord v6 with 72000 miles. No issues what so ever but I'm told the belt should be replaced at 10 years regardless of mileage. What is your advice?

[@ClericChris]

I've made so many bad choices in life, but I've had a handful of wins. Buying a serpentine belt removal tool was one of those wins. I bought the Gear Wrench one but there are other good ones. It turns a task that should be simple but is often the bane of existence and actually makes it simple. You'll feel like a Buddhist monk working on your car; chill, and at peace with nature. No more digging for cheater pipes or trying to use a 5° ratchet in a 4° gap, so your forced to use a 1/4" ratchet for clearance with a stack of adapters from 1/4 to 3/8 to 1/2 then a swivel socket to an 18mm socket with 2/3 of it ground away so it doesn't hit the fender.

This is the type of guy u wish u had at ur shop when u were learning the ropes.

[@bestyet905]

Great Video! I like this level of detail.

[@joelin1384]

Almost 130000 miles on my 2008 Honda v6. Original timing belt, engine still running smooth and quiet

[@slipshaft]

Gambling at this point. If it breaks you're screwed. Mine made it to 150K and I feel pretty lucky. Decided not to push it any further. Mostly highway miles.

[@isaacsanchez5159]

My 2008 acoord v6 with 190k is getting put right now , i just started noticing tensioner rattling inwant to drive this car as long as possibble its been a great car

[@garnellwalls3721]

Great video man. Thank you.

[@experiencedsolutions9963]

Glad you liked it!

[@Lorenzo_v6]

This is exactly what I was lookin for. The car n everything 🙌

[@dontestuckey2200]

285k before I got a belt put in my 09 v6 definitely waited too long

[@dontestuckey2200]

@theory816 lol nah it’s a great car hopefully I get another 100k out of her

[@gioo2961]

Hi did you order the parts off a ebsite or straight from the dealer ?

[@experiencedsolutions9963]

Dealer website.

[@entrnl2156]

How long did it take you?

[@experiencedsolutions9963]

About 3 hours or so.

[@frankmontez6853]

It’s only the V6s that are this expensive and difficult time consuming belts? Not the four cylinders? I’d do well to avoid the V6s

[@akrasia4957]

Did you redo the water pump because it failed or because it’s something you should do with every timing belt replacement?

[@willpage79]

Got honda 355k never changed the timing belt still good n driving lmaoo

[@experiencedsolutions9963]

I see you are a gambling man.

[@Cgoodnite]

i have 67,450 my 2011 honda accord 3.5l coupe question is it time for timing belt change?

[@kevinlhighfill]

Honda recommends 100k mile timing belt replacement.

[@AntonAtan]

Besides 100k miles I think the recommendation is or 7 years. Even if the belt is good hydraulic tensioner might be leaking. I did mine at 100k miles but at 155k and 8 years after the 1st timing belt kit I noticed some oil and re-did it again.

[@arcticmorning]

I am replacing my 07 accord 6 cylinder timing belt and accessories Monday.. i think the 07 and 08 are about the same design

[@keeganblauwkamp9355]

Yeah I blew my motor 🥲

[@brownrussell1073]

Will u do a valve adjustment video on these same cars. I've seen several..but u can do better.

[@experiencedsolutions9963]

Yes I will

[@nickorozco5933]

How much do you charge for this job?

[@trackrunner11]

If you are going to remove the water pump than include draining the coolant. Nothing mentioned about removing the pin for the tensioner or the the wheel well cover and the tire as well. It's worth mentioning that there special gear jamming tools that fit between the cams to prevent movement.

[@curtisramsey2219]

How much did it cost to replace everything

[@brosephchillaxatron5440]

What happens if you accidentally bump one of them and the dots dont line up? Do you just move it back?

[@Chicago945-q8v]

You can not do a timing belt replacement just watching this video is lacking many details and the most important things cuidado!!

[@shanab.1297]

Big facts!!!

[@marloncoley1810]

Yup

[@AngelLuisTvShow]

Nice video

[@dm6155]

Where are u located

[@hurricanexanax]

Is this even possible without a lift?

[@slipshaft]

It can be done but expect to spend time laying on the floor with your head in the wheel well. Everything is blocked by something else. This job is a royal PITA. Allow yourself plenty of time. Also, jack up the car as high as possible if you plan on using a long breaker bar to break that crank bolt, otherwise the floor is in the way.

[@jonkore2024]

Makes you just want to stay and buy used '70s to '90s cars ...rear wheel drive easy as s*** to fix

[@slipshaft]

No kidding its a challenge just to see what you're doing on this!

[@josemarrero7982]

Great video bro, mind posting the tools used in the description please?
