My manual says to change the timing belt at 60,000 on my 2003TL...I'm at a
little over 60,000 and my car still runs and looks brand new...Has anyone
else waited to change theirs or should I do it now?

Where do you live?

Your regularly scheduled replacement is at 105K miles or 84 months. The 60K
is for extreme temperature conditions.

Hmmm, our 2003 Accord V-6 with a similar engine calls for timing belt
change at 105k miles. Are you looking at the extreme services interval
instead of normal service?
