The replacement cost for a Honda Accord timing belt varies between $550 to $1000 on average depending on your year model, where you’re located and whether you get it done at a dealership or at a local mechanic. The time taken to replace the belt is usually around 5 to 6 hours. The suggested cost here includes replacement of the timing belt, water pump and tensioner + labor. If other parts are going to be replaced such as the power steering and AC compressor belts, seals and gaskets then the cost may be a little higher. The schedule for replacing the timing belt of a Honda Accord should generally be at an interval of 100,000 miles.
Also to be noted is that some honda accord engine’s have a timing belt whereas others are chain. Mostly it is the 4 cylinders from 2003 onwards that are chain driven whereas the V6’s are still belt driven.
