I am looking to buy this car, which is a 2000 Galant. The car has had two owners and the second owner (the person I am trying to buy the car from) does not know if the timing belt was changed before he bought it. The car has 106,xxx miles on it. The engine size is 3.2 liters and its a V6 engine. Hope you can help.How do you know if the timing belt on a 2000 Mitsubishi Galant has been changed?
Really, it's not possible to know unless you do it yourself (or pay for a mechanic to have it done).
Highly recommend you get it done if you purchase the car. The Galant (with a DOHC) all had an interference fit engine so if the belt breaks, you'll be looking at valve damage and major engine repairs.How do you know if the timing belt on a 2000 Mitsubishi Galant has been changed?
