Not even yearly - a belt should last several years or more, depending on the environment. Extreme cold causes belts to crack and of course heat causes dry rot, so if you are in the North, it could be every few years. Any more than that and you may have bad component (stuck pulley),

shade tree mech street rep is low. keep going

I'd say the easiest way of telling is 80-100k klm.50-65000 mi.

or every 5 yrs. The new ones don't stretch as much as the old ones use to.

probably about 105k miles. As the last respondent described, a belt should be changed under extreme conditions. go to alldata and your book in the car for the correct answer. Are you changing it yourself?
