Every 75k miles.

If it breaks on our cars it won't hurt anything are engines are made so that if the timing belt breaks the pistons will not hit the valves. It will just be a pain to get in time again, but not that bad.

How is it set up like that? I've never heard of a engine being like that.

Yeah, I was all antsy to get my belt changed until I found out our engines are non-interference (just hit like 125k, manual says every 60k and manual supplement says 75k)

I was just so used to my Honda engine, man if the timing belt woulda gone out on my Prelude I woulda been screwed but I was happy to find out that that's not the case with the celi
