Cam Belt Change

[Dogberry]

Hi

I'm a new owner of a 2002 SC430 with 37000 miles. Should I have the cam belt changed and, if so, anything else with it? Is it possible to check it for wear first?

Thanks for any advice.

Yep your due on age. 8 years in UK, for some reason its 6 years in US. Not sure if anything else is required ie waterpump etc. Maybe ask on the LS forum, as more LS430 here then SC's.

Hello,

Just to show we read all the forums,-- The belt change on the LS430 is 100k/10years. I have no idea why it should be any different on the SC as I assumed it was the same engine.

Thanks. That's helpful. Is that regardless of mileage?

Sorry, yes its 100k miles OR 10 years whichever occurs first.
