255k on timing belt?

its the redline model too. 17" alloy wheels, air dam, lower body cladding. Pretty nice.

I guess a $100 prepurchase inspection by a Saturn savvy mechanic is too expensive. :wink:

I wonder what the record is for the miles on a timing belt.

That is not something I’d try to find out with an interference engine.

Is this motor an inline-6 ? If so, a timing belt replacement likely isn’t overly expensive or risky.

Nope, it’s the Honda V6.

Oh oh, yeah, I was thinking of a V6, but that’s not what I said, brain freeze … lol … what I was trying to refer to was if the engine is oriented in the long axis of the car’s direction, or the short axis (transverse). Timing belt replacements on transverse engines can be nightmares, but on long-axis oriented engines the replacement job is often easier.

Pretty sure it’s traverse.

It is transverse

My colleague has a 2006 Saturn Vue with the Honda V6, and I’ve seen it with the hood up
