Default Timing belt

I searched, but couldn't get a definitive answer. When is it recommended that the timing belt is changed on our Crossfires (I have a NA if it makes a difference)?

If I'm not mistaken, our engines use timing chains instead of belts, so there would be no issue of replacing belts at certain mileages. Those forward thinkin Germans ....eh !

Are you talking about the rubber drive/fan belt or the timing chain that drives the cams? Timing chain? Probably never. Rubber drive belt? Not sure of the reccomended change, but inspect it for cracking and change if it shows signs of wear or cracking.

I was talking about a timing belt specifically, which, apparently, Crossfires don't have. Since you mentioned it, though, what about the serpentine belt? 60,000 miles, or as Lantana suggests, whenever visual inspection indicates that it is necessary?
