197 belt change

[MarkR_V6]

Hi guys,

I realise this will most likely have been asked a million times before, I did search but couldn't find a pertinent topic, hence the post. Apologies in advance.

I'm wondering if anyone can tell me the year change for the belt on a 197. On the V6 it was every 5 years, just wondering if its the same for the 197.

It’s a 56 plate so just trying to figure out ahead of time if it’s a belt change this year or next. It's only on 32K miles so it'll definitely be a year change before mileage.

Thanks in advance for any help.

All the best,

-Mark.

Thanks Adam,

Looks like it'll be this year then....I'll see what the local garages feel like charging me. Hopefully it wont be crazy money like the Vee was
