Every 50,000 miles for 'New Age' - or as someone recently quipped "Middle Age" -that is the Bugeye/Blobeye/Hawkeye style models since late 2000. Mine will need doing next service (100,000 miles) and apparently it is recommended that you also have something else replaced at the same time? (is it tension pulleys or something?)

hydraulic tensioner is another that should be considered also crankshaft seal dont know if water pump or oil pump should be changed then might be worth it though as the belt has to be removed to get in there anyway.
