Acura TL (Honda Accord V6) Timing Belt, Water Pump, & Pulleys Replacement

  • This timing belt replacement video provides you step-by-step instructions on performing a schedule belt replacement service on the the Honda J32 V6 engine commonly found in the Accord and Acura TL. The service interval is 105K miles or 8 years; which ever comes first. In addition to the belt replacement, we will be replacing, as part of preventative maintenance, the water pump and guide and tensioner pulleys. Other Honda vehicles that share this V6 engine configuration are the MDX, RDX, RL, RLX, Crosstour, Odyssey, Pilot, Vue and Ridgeline. The J32 timing belt component kit can also be used on the J35.
    Unless you have a powered impact tool used with 19 mm high mass impact socket, removing the harmonic balancer bolt is next to impossible. Honda crank pulley holders don't work either. I actually bent one.
    The OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts providers for the timing belt components are Mitsuboshi (timing belt), Aisin (water pump), Koyo (idler and tensioner bearings). If you obtain a timing belt kit from the dealer, the parts in their kit are provided by these manufacturers.
    If you have no prior experience replacing a timing belt, expect to spend anywhere between 6 to 8 hours to complete the job.
    Replacement of the water pump will release coolant from the engine block. This would be a good time to change out the coolant from the radiator which would constitute a complete fluid exchange.

    Just finished my first water pump/timing belt on a 2000 Base TL. Although there are a few slight differences ( the 2000 is 2nd generation, '04 TL is 3rd. Small details like 2 drive belts instead of one, no bolt on "keeper" around crankshaft timing cog, etc.)
    There's no way I could have done this without this video. I probably watched it 25 times total, starting and starting it countless times. I cannot tell you how good I feel right now, accomplishing such a daunting task, all the while standing on the shoulders of the genius who made this video.

    Torque specifications are very important. Furthermore, you should always ensure the timing belt is installed correctly by rotating the engine with a breaker bar twice. if your marks still line up after those two revolutions then finish putting it back together. if not then your still out of time even if it is only a single tooth this will cause damage to the engine if you dont ensure its lined up Correctly. Other than these two things you did an outstanding job. Master tech here. 35 years exp.

    • @hardlymovingpro
      @hardlymovingpro  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for your post! I use paint marks and transfer them to the new belt to avoid wasting time with the "two revolution" technique after belt installation. If there's no belt slack between the cams and cranks, you're in alignment; however, engines that do not have have a self adjusting pulley tensioner (mostly the 4 cylinder engines) do require rotation to allow the belt to seat. But instead of rotating the engine, I start the engine which I found to better seat the belt.

      Another question: With your method of making (blue) marks and transferring to the new belt, why do I even need to find TDC? The car is currently properly timed; I just need to leave everything as it is, mark the cams and crank (and belt), transfer marks and replace, right? Why would it matter where the engine is in its cycle (TDC vs. wherever it randomly stopped when I turned it off) as long as I don't move anything and just replace the belt in the same spot?

    Just successfully did the timing belt, bearings, and water pump on my 2002 Honda Accord V6! I would never have felt remotely confident enough to try it, had I not found this amazing video first! I had a few issues: the harmonic balancer bolt was dead-locked. I was even prepared with the exact high-mass impact socket attached to my heavy duty 1/2" impact...and it wouldn't budge at all. I eventually had to employ the bump start method to get it off. Highly stressful, but it worked on the 2nd try! The other issue I had was that my tensioner was a different design from the one you re-used in the video. Instead of a pin, mine comes with this ridiculous "clip" over the ends, compressing the whole thing together. But the spot where it goes was so tight, as soon as I got it down there it came off. At that point I thought I was totally screwed. After over an hour working on it, a buddy of mine comes over and we discover(using the old tensioner) that you can not use a vise to get it compressed again. You have to remove the nut on the back end and use a flat head screw driver to back up the tensioner to get the clip on. I then zip tied the clip on and after a long struggle I was finally able to get it bolted down. I had to thread in the top bolt on the tensioner and then use every bit of strength I had in me to push the tensioner bearing up so that I could force the tensioner in place and thread in the lower bolt...it was definitely the toughest part of the whole job! I also replaced the 2 other drive belts. I've never done a job this complicated and having your video in the garage with me was a life saver. After all parts were in and engine was ready, she started up on a dime and I took a 20 minute drive on freeway. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THESE INCREDIBLE VIDEOS!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO SIR!!! I wish you sooooooo much health, happiness, and abundance.

      Good story and glad it all worked out for you! You saved over $1,000 if you had let the dealer do it! Surprised the bump stop method worked for you. I began using the high mass socket when the bump stop didn't work for me anymore. If you remove all the timing belt slack to the left and right of the tensioner pulley, you shouldn't have had any problem bolting on the tensioner. That would mean moving the rear cam counter clockwise and the lower crank clockwise.

Thankfully I was able to force it in; but thank you, I'll remember that next time. And yeah, I was totally expecting the high mass socket to work, but it failed hard. Thank G-D the bump start did work, cuz I don't know what I would have done if it hadn't. So you can move the cams and crankshaft separately and in different directions independent of each other? I would not have thought to do that.

Just remove mounting bolts then move whole pump, with hoses attached, ontop of upper intake. Removing the 10mm hose clamp on back cylinder head also helps get more play in high pressure hose. Just to save someone somewhere some time.

      I did have most of the tools already, the trick with marking the existing timing belt with an ink pen and taking a picture before removing the tensioner, then matching it carefully with the new belt, was wonderful! That crank pulley bolt is no joke, fighting that crank bolt can stop your progress in a hurry. I tried to get it off with a 18v snap on impact and it couldn't even budge it, I also have milwaukee tools so I ran out and I bought the new milwaukee m18 fuel impact and that took the bolt off with ease. I also bought a concrete mixing pan to catch the coolant from the block when you take off the pump housing. I did it on jack stands in the garage just fine. I would say it probably took me 8-10hrs doing the thermostat as well, but I wasn't rushing and started Friday night and worked on and off over the weekend

      @@hardlymovingpro So you would not recommend replacing the cam seals and crank seal while doing this? I have a 2005 Acura, 158k miles, that I do not believe the 105k mile maintanence was done (the timing belt and water pump specifically). No visible indications of leaks from these seals, but I am wondering if it might be worth it to do them while I have everything apart already.
      Great video though, got the subscribe from me and I'll follow your links since I still need to purchase that Lisle 19mm socket. That spill-free funnel looks great, too, probably going to add that to the tool box as well.

    Makes me wonder why honda put timing belts for soooo long on the V6's instead of timing chains like Toyota, cant think of any reasons. Hopefully the new ones have timing chains this is soooo much of a hassle lol. Great video though best of TH-cam💯💯💯

    • @hardlymovingpro
      @hardlymovingpro  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for your comment and support! Timing belts have less centrifugal mass than a timing chain setup and therefore robs less horse power. From a maintenance perspective, timing chains do not require replacement unless the chain stretches (caused by not changing the oil as outlined by the manufacturer or the crankcase oil level dropped and oil wasn't added). A stretched timing chain replacement job is around 3X the cost of a typical timing belt replacement (both parts and labor).

      Thanks for your comment! The impact tool to remove the crankshaft pulley bolt is a Milwaukee M18 Fuel 1/2" and it generates around 1,400 lbs of torque. Used with a high mass 19 mm impact socket, taking off the harmonic balancer pulley bolt is easy. If you want more details, let me know.

    Additionally:
    Draining the coolant: There is a nice and fairly easy to access drain plug to drain the coolant out the engine block and water pump. It is located on the back of the engine in front of the steering tie rod link. You can see it from inside the front right wheel well. Drain the coolant before taking the water pump off so that most of the coolant is gone
    Knocking noise!!!! If changing the timing belt because of a knocking noise then make sure you get a timing belt kit with the shim that needs to be installed also on the timing belt idle pulley. If not, the noise may come back down the road (Apparently Acura says its the timing belt slapping on the engine mount) TSB 08-031
