The 92 SC400 has a timing belt. I had the dealer changed the timing belt, fan belt, water pump and tensioners while they were in there. They recommend the timing belt change at 90000 miles

How much did this job cost you? I know that this is one of the most labor intensive jobs. Thanks for your reply.

It was closed to $900.00. Quite expensive, but consider this has to be done every 90k miles, which is not bad at all.
