Listees, As some of you know I work in a repair shop too, On the Hook came a 94 Eurovan 73K on the clock. Timing belt broke! This tells me a couple of things; One that if there is an interval to do a service, LISTEN! And 2 that the theroy of the newer timing belts being made similar to the Japanese car belts lasting 90 K, I Don't Think So! Just want ed to pass on the word about the Mileage. I've seen Jettas, Golfs Etc go 80-90K on a belt. The weight of the vehicle may have something to do with the mileage too. Eurovan Drivers Beware.
