    OEM timing belt/water pump or after-market?

    is there a huge difference between OEM timing belts and aftermarket ones? If there are decent aftermarket brands, give me some suggestions? thanks

      there are many brands that are aftermarket. contitec or something being the biggest, or good year. Its common place to use one of these belts.

            i just had mine done a week ago. I used Goodyear gatorback belts for my accessories, and a Conti brand for the timing belt. Oh i also did the water pump as well i believe the brand was Airtex. The techs at the garage i work at use these products all the time and not once since i've worked there, has there been a problem of it malfunctioning. also the gatorback belts are supposed to be quieter than regular ribbed belts. I got everything, parts and labor done for 300...perks of working at a garage i guess.

              OEM is always best, but if you go aftermarket, get quality (Goodyear would probably be fine)
