The 2005 Honda Civic originally came with a 1.6L 4-cylinder engine, and higher trim levels offered an optional upgrade to a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine. Regardless of the model, all versions feature a timing belt system. In 2005, Honda transitioned to using timing chains for Civic models starting from 2006 onwards. The timing belts in the older models need replacement every 100,000 miles or every 7 years, whichever comes first. The estimated cost, inclusive of parts and labor, for this maintenance task typically falls between $500 and $750.
