I have a 2008 Hyundai Entourage. The dealership is telling me I should replace the timing belt. I find it a little early in the game for this kind of repair.

What is the life expectancy of a timing belt on these vehicles?

Hey ENTOURAGE OWNER,

We show the engine to have a timing chain, are you sure they didn't mean the serpentine belt? becasue that would be more in line with the mileage. Here is a diagram set so you can see for yourself.

Please let us know happens so it will help others.

Best, Ken
