i took it too who has been servicing the car for over 5 years now are
stumped at whether or not the timing belt needs to be changed again?

THe timing belt was changed at 93k miles, will it need to be changed again?

sounds like it went over time on the original assuming you mean it was the
original changed at 93k. Leave it for another 60k which is a reasonable
interval. So next change = 150k.

Yeah, I agree with Juan, you're okay until about 60k. But you got lucky
with the first one, that's for sure!

It should be inspected just in case!!
Oil might affect it or possibly something else.

Cheaper to inspect it than not inspect it and then find out that something
caused premature damage to it. ;-)
