Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What's included in this complete timing kit?
A: Kit includes water pump with gasket, timing belt, accessory drive belts (A/C, alternator, power steering), thermostat and gasket, oil filter, oil drain plug gasket, front cam seals, front main seal, timing belt tensioner, and idler/tensioner bearings.

Q: Is the 5VZ-FE an interference engine?
A: No, the 5VZ-FE is a non-interference engine, meaning valve-to-piston contact will not occur if the timing belt fails. However, regular maintenance prevents potential engine damage and stranding.

Q: How often should I replace the timing belt on my 3.4L V6?
A: Toyota recommends timing belt replacement every 90,000 miles or 72 months, whichever comes first. Many owners replace at 60,000-mile intervals for added peace of mind.

Q: Does this kit include the hydraulic tensioner?
A: Yes, this complete kit includes the hydraulic tensioner (13540-62021). Some basic kits exclude this component, but our kit includes everything for comprehensive service.

Related Toyota Parts You May Need

• Crankshaft Pulley Bolt (90119-16006) - New bolt recommended, do not reuse old bolt
• Valve Cover Gaskets - Recommended replacement during timing belt service
• Spark Plug Tube Seals - Prevent oil leaks when accessing timing components
• Toyota Red Coolant (00272-1LLAC-01) - Required for cooling system refill

 

Common Symptoms of Timing Belt/Water Pump Failure

• Visible cracks, glazing, or fraying on the timing belt surface
• Coolant leaks from the water pump weep hole, indicating seal failure
• Squealing or grinding noise from the tensioner or idler bearings
• Engine overheating due to water pump impeller or bearing failure
• Rough idle or misfiring from worn camshaft or crankshaft seals, allowing oil contamination

 

Why Choose Complete OEM Timing Kit

Critical Engine Service Requires OEM Quality: The timing belt service is one of the most critical maintenance procedures for the 5VZ-FE engine. While the 3.4L V6 is a non-interference design, timing belt failure can leave you stranded and potentially cause damage to accessory components. More importantly, the water pump, tensioners, and bearings have similar service life to the timing belt itself.

This comprehensive OEM kit ensures you're not just replacing the belt - you're performing complete timing system maintenance with genuine Toyota and OEM manufacturer components. The Aisin water pump is the same unit Toyota installs at the factory. The Koyo and NSK bearings provide the precise tolerances and longevity that made the 5VZ-FE legendary for reliability.

Professional technicians and experienced DIY mechanics know that timing belt service is not the place to cut corners. Aftermarket components may initially save a few dollars, but premature failure of inferior parts can cost thousands in labor to access the timing system again. This kit represents the professional standard for 5VZ-FE timing service.

The included accessory drive belts, thermostat, seals, and filters complete the service properly - addressing all wear items accessible during timing belt replacement. This comprehensive approach maximizes the value of the labor investment and ensures another 90,000 miles of reliable 5VZ-FE operation.

Invest in genuine OEM quality for your 3.4L timing service and maintain the legendary reliability that makes Toyota owners loyal for life.
