The 2013 Honda Pilot is equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine on all its trims. This engine uses a timing belt system, which should be replaced every 60,000 miles or sooner in case of significant vehicle damage. A complete timing belt kit for this model will run you around $120 to $150 for the parts. This task can be challenging for inexperienced DIY car owners, so most individuals may prefer to have a professional handle it. If you opt to go to a mechanic or dealership for the replacement, be prepared to spend between $600 and $950 for both parts and labor.

Why does the Pilot require a timing belt replacement at 60,000 miles, while the Accord's timing belt is only replaced at 90,000 miles? I've owned both models and currently still have a Pilot.
