Default Timing Belt Kit
I don't need my timing belt done again for a long time (probably 30,000 miles) but I am curious if anyone has bought and installed the Aisin kit from RockAuto..

It's like $165 and includes the water pump, tensioner, idler, etc. It claims to be all OE components.

If so, this is a steal compared to what the dealer wants.

Thoughts?

I got one of those kits last year for my ES330. My independent mechanic was amazed how cheap I got it and yes it was all OE components.

That's the kit I used. It was all oe parts exactly the same as what I removed. It's a great deal.
