I have a 98 Civic with 91,000km and a 98 Accord with 98,000km and wondered
when to change the timing belt and water pump. I have heard mixed responses
from various mechanics - some say at 100K and some say wait until 120K.

Any idea how much it should cost in Canadian $ to do the work? Does it cost
more/less to do the Accord versus the Civic?
Thanks
