Toyota Lucida (j Reg)

[Gary E]

Hi

I have just purchased a Toyota Lucida. Since the last Cam Belt was fitted it has done 40,000 miles, does anyone know the life expectancy for the cam belt on these and roughly what cost I would be looking at for replacement.

Any info would be useful - thanks

I think 50000 is about right but change it anyway.

cambelt interval on a lucida is 100,000 km (63,000 miles)

I have a P reg Lucida that had done 72000 when I changed the cambelt although I realise that i was on borrowed time having been told that 60,000 is the recommended period. The cost through a not very cheap independent local garage was about £250 plus VAT since it requires the removal of the seats internally to get to it, so I am told!! It was only the second one he had done and he vowed not to do another!
