a 2003 Celica actually has a timing chain, not a belt. Timing belts were used up until the 1999 model when the switch was made for the 2000 and up models.
A timing chain is not replaced unless there is substantial engine wear/damage that causes the chain to become damaged. It is self-adjusting unit, you do not need to do anything with it.
If you have other maintenance concerns, check the maintenance logbook and owner's manual that came with the Celica or call a local Toyota dealership and ask to speak directly with the parts or service departments on service intervals. They should be able to provide you (at possibly a small cost) with a maintenance logbook for at least up to 100,000 miles if the Celica is missing it's logbook.
Good luck.After how many miles should you change a timing belt on a toyota?Usually the timing belt is replaced at the 60,000 to 100,000 mile mark. Check your maintenance schedule in the owner's manual to see what Toyota recommends.After how many miles should you change a timing belt on a toyota?usually between 40k and 60k miles.
if it breaks the cost will be a lot more.
