2001 Tacoma Timing Belt

I should have included that it is a double cab with the V-6 engine. Frank

Just call a dealer and ask what the specs are. It probably is the same as my '99 Tacoma which is 90K for the belt. Replacing the water pump is a good idea as there is almost the same labor involved to change it later. If in doubt, change the belts driving the alternator, etc.

Some may tell you that the V6 is a non interference engine, so don't change the timing belt change until it fails. In my case I drive in some remote areas where the tow charge would be as much as the belt replacement.

I have a 2000 V-6 Prerunner. I believe the book says 90,000 miles. I had mine done at 60,000 because we live in the desert. I found my water pump seeping at that time. I prbably would change the water pump if I were you. Scott

I did my 99 around 90 K, belt looked good, but I figure it is cheap insurance. Also did water pump, front CS seal and all other belts.
