how do u know when it needs to be changed?? i think my cars had it done by the previous owner, seeing as its done about 88k.

is there anyway in telling if it needs changing?

70,000 miles i think mate.....

If its cracked or in bad condition it would be wise to change it.

72k miles it should be changed.

At at guess Id say its been changed cos some dont last to 72K, so its probably had a new one if its on 88K. Just find out when it was done.

yeah broken cambelts will just sicken you, cause if you wait and it snaps, you will have more than just belt to change, and you will really not regret not having done it.

Id get it changed just to be safe, i had one go in an old car = car written off, i changed the one in my williams as the first job.
