is the mazda mpv timing belt suggested change interval at 60k miles?

if yes, is there also a reset required for some type or alert on the dash (that may or
may not come on at about this time)?

not sure, it's a 98 mpv, does the recommendation for belt change vary by year of mpv ?
isn't there some 'generic' recommended interval?

2 different engines and year makes a difference.

ok, you have the year (98), if you know the answer for the 2 choices of engines, why
not post it?

thanks

for what it's worth, I also have a 98 mazda mpv and have no idea what size engine it
has. mine is a v6 but I could not tell what hp or anything else

would also like to know what the 2 options are if it's not too much trouble to ask?

If I sounded like an a.shole in that last response, it's because the
car owner need simply look at the engine decal, or on the V.E.C.I.
label affixed to the hood, or have enough interest in his car to know a
simple bit of information such as engine type.  He could ask the shop
or dealer he uses for repairs, ask a neighbor, or Google the info, or
etc...

I get pissed when a poster askes a question about his car without
mention of year, make, model, engine and trans.  When they repeatedly
withhold the info then I get uber-pissed.  Shep, the respondent, has
been very helpful and courteous with posters in every one of his
replies I have read.  He doesn't need this crap.

Not exactly on topic but, My wifes 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe was scheduled for a
timing belt replacement at 60,000 mi. The belt knocked teeth off at less
than 53,000. From now on I'll have the belt replaced 10,000 before it's
supposed to be!
I just wanted to pass this on...................

OTOH, our Mazda Protege is supposed to have the belt replaced at 60K
mi...unless it was first registered in Calif, in which case it's 110K mi
(or maybe 105K...I forget). Does anyone think they put different belts on
cars going to Calif?
Shep - 21 Jul 2005 02:26 GMT
Ok here we go,sohc in CA and MA. gets done at 105k, all other states at 60k,
on all dohc do at 60k. BTW, thanks Toyota MDT.

You're very kind to put up with these types, Shep!  Keep up the good
work, though.
