At what mileage should the timing belt be changed

> At what mileage should the timing belt be changed

Hi,

What car? What engine?

Recommended intervals vary by year and engine, starting at under 60k
miles to as much as 105k miles, and the newer 6 cyl models use a timing
chain instead of a belt, so no change interval is specified.

Need more info...

Relax, you never need to change it. You can just wait until it breaks
and then change the engine!

Either a/ at the manuf's recommended interval,
or b/ about half a mile before it breaks :)

Like Rick said, more info needed. Cheers
