The 2003 Honda Civic comes equipped with a timing chain, which is more durable compared to a timing belt. This is beneficial because timing chains typically last the lifetime of the vehicle. Honda offers coverage for chain replacement under a special extended warranty that is valid for either ten years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. It is recommended to have the chain inspected every 12 months or 10,000 miles. If the chain needs to be replaced, the cost of parts alone ranges from $184 to $473. Hiring a mechanic or auto technician for replacement will cost between $140 and $248 for labor.
