They say it is also time dependent, and the belt can deteriorate with time, and if it goes is expensive to fix. So you take your chances! Next time get a diesel it has a chain whick doesn't need changing, although Vauxhall tried to tell me it was a belt that did!(the service manager was wrong! - fills you with confidence!)
