timeing belt done?

RE: timeing belt done?
as far as I know there is no way to know without taking it off to inspect it except maintenance records at the dealership. If your unsure you probably better off getting a new one. I'm pretty sure thats the deal but I would say wait for some more people to chime in first to see what they say.

No way to find out unless you can figure out who the previous owner was. If it was a local car, you could try calling around to the different dealers and give the vin number and see if there is any maint. history, but thats doubtful.

checking for new parts, most visible would be the ribbed belt which is usually replaced when a timing service is done.
but in my opinion if they don't know if that service has been done i would keep looking.

Your going to have a hard time finding a used car at the dealer with timing belt replacement history. Id try to find a private sale. The odds of getting service history are much higher and the price you will pay will be much lower. New car=dealer used car=private sale... Common sense to me.
