The manual is pretty clear, however i am sure the guy writing it did
not think of cases where the car had 30000 miles lesser than the life
of the belt. Also most of the postings in here could be clarified by
reading the manual or going to a dealer, so i am assuming everybody
who is here is to her to save a few bucks.
Plus i was interested in checking with other knowledgable people on
this forum.

Did not know frustrated, old farts like you will get so worked up. I
apologize that that because of your sorry,miserable life you feel the
need to use vulgar language when talking to others .
