Hi,

I would be happy to help, but I need to confirm something. I am showing only a 2.5L turbo or a 4.4L V8 as options for the vehicle. Can you confirm the engine size?

See pic below.

Let me know.

Hi,

Happy New Year to you as well.

As far as the timing belt is concerned, I attached the directions for the removal and replacement of the timing belt.

Take a look through them and let me know if you have questions or if I can help in any way.

Take care,

Joe
