Does it make a difference when the car comes with 3 years 50k/km full warranty including wear and tear items? Full 3 rears of free replacements including oil changes and brake pads and diesel filters and even the engine oil!!

Dear HCivic,

I believe the year 2005 onwards is timing chain. Only 1.8 TDCi use timing belt.

Of course it makes a difference unless you are paying for the maintenance after 3 years or after 50k km!

You don't change timing belt at 50K-km. In other word, you definitely have to pay out of your own pocket.

I prefers to use my head than follow the crowd. After all, it is my money and not theirs.
