Question type: Maintenance & Repair

If  The timing belt breaks on a Toyota
Avalon, will it ruin the engine?

1 Answer

I do not think your engine is interference which means the belt could break without bending valves but the change interval is every 90,000 miles so don't take a chance and go ahead and replace it when it is time.
