Honda cars have always used timing belts, but it looks like your model has a chain.

SOURCE: Does my Civic have a timing chain or a timing belt

It has a timing belt. Recommended to be replace every 105,000 miles, timing belt also run's your water pump good idea to also replace, your engine is also an INTERFERENCE ENGINE which will damage your cylinder head valve's if timing belt goes bad. Hope this was very helpful.

SOURCE: 95 honda civic timing belt replacement process

If you have never changed a cambelt (timing belt) then it is not recommended that you attempt it. It is a job for a mechanic, as getting the cam timing wrong on reassembly is easy to do and can have disastrous consequences. It is easy enough once you know how, and if you are reasonably mechanically able, I'd suggest getting a repair manual for your vehicle that has a step by step procedure for timing belt replacement. Companies like Haynes produce very good repair manuals.

SOURCE: has a 2004-2006 honda accord 2.2 diesel, timing belt or chain?

Timing chains are overall more reliable, and never require replacement. Timing belts on the other hand run much quieter and are easily replaced.
Timing belts should be replaced every 60-90 thousand miles depending on driving conditions and climate.

I have a honda civic 2007 with 94000 miles on. should I replace the timing belt??

from 2003 to 2007 inline 4 cyl, models have timing chains, that do not require replacing. All of these engines are INTERFERENCE engines. If the belt breaks you WILL have serious engine damage. if a rubber timing belt, honda says about 100,000 miles. have a good day !!
