My Subaru Impreza 2.0I - 2012 - 98000 miles The dealer asked me to do timing belt, water pump, thermostat, coolant for $1200. This has timing chain and usually need not be changed?

SOURCE: timing chain/belt and water pump

On your Jeep Cherokee you have a timing chain that is made to last a much longer time then timing belts, under normal service it is not requred to change, on the other hand it is recommened you replace the water pump and all coolant hoses and renew the coolant.

SOURCE: Do I change water pump when having timing belt changed

I would go to auto zone and get a diagram and the timing belt and do it yourself and the water pump (no it does not have to be changed everytime the timing belt is changed but if the car has over 60,000miles then it is best to change them both) it is not that hard especially if the car is not out of time just make sure you disconnect the negative side of the battery

SOURCE: does a 2003 subaru impreza

IT HAS A BELT NOT A CHAIN, AND A MAINTANCE SCHEDULE MEANS WHEN THE MAINTANCE IS DUE AND WHATS DUE AT EVERY CERTAIN MILES LIKE THE OIL CHANGE EVERY 8,000 MILES OR 3 MONTHS THE BELT IS DUE EVERY 70,000 MILES............... GOT IT K HOPE THIS HELPS YOU. SEND YOUR FEEBACK PLEASE. THANKS

YOUR OWNERS MANUL EXPLAINS EVERY THING THAT YOU NEED TO REPLACE EVERY CETAIN MILES. IF YOU HAVE IT.

SOURCE: 1993 Subaru Legacy 2.2? Changed timing belt,

did you know how to replace timing belt it has to be installed in a specified way or it wont start
if it broke and you replaced it then the story is different as if it breaks while running usually it also bends your valves you should see a technician for this
