smit1982 Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 hi there, im looking at buying a 90 civic hatch but the engine was replaced 2 years ago with a 94 or 95 civic hatch engine so i wondering if the cv joints and or the timing belt might go soon? She might have gotten them replaced but im not sure yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
str86diesel Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 How many miles are on both the new engine and the car? Usually the timing belt goes about every 50k to100k, pending on how the motor was driven. As far as the CV's go. Yeah they are sealed up, but if the car has sat for a period of time, usually the rubber boots around them can get weather worn and mess them up.
