If you own a 2003 Toyota Camry, the type of engine it has will determine whether it uses a timing belt or chain. Camrys with a 4-cylinder engine will have a timing belt, while those with a V6 engine will have a timing chain. Timing chains typically last the lifetime of the vehicle without needing replacement under regular conditions. On the other hand, timing belts should be replaced every 60,000 to 100,000 miles. If you bring your car to a mechanic or dealership for a timing belt replacement, it will cost you between $500 to $900.
