What are the steps to change a timing belt on a 2002 Nissan Maxima?
Q. How difficult is it to change the timing belt on a 2002 Nissan maxima? What tools and steps do I need to take? Can a guy with basic tool and automechanics skills do it or does it need to go to the nissan shop?
Asked by R.M. D - Thu May 22 23:15:34 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. No steps, no timing belt. The Max like all late-model Nissan's uses a Timing Chain, not a belt which never has to be serviced.
