    Oh Yes!! Could be true, Proceed with caution .

    There’s a LOT of reasons why it might not start. What made your “mechanic” friend say it was the timing belt? If it is the timing belt you can cause SERIOUS engine damage just trying to start it. Without more details, there’s no way for any of us to help you.

    Without much information, there maybe a lot of reasons why it won’t start. And timing belt is just one of the possible reasons. Why don’t you take it to a dealer.
