« on: October 16, 2010, 01:17:59 PM »
Hi Iv got a Cherokee sport turbo CRD on a 2002 plate the jeep garage says the cam belt needs changing every 60,000 miles but its done 73,000 miles and i dont think its been changed, does anyone have any probs with this if its not been changed?

Get it done, there'll be total mechanical carnage if it fails.

If I don't know when a cam belt has been changed I usually get it changed soon after  buying a vehicle just for peace of mind.
