Puegeot say change it every 100k miles but leaving it this long is probably asking for trouble, for example vauxhall originally said on cavaliers etc change cambelt every 40k miles. when the vectra came out they up'd-it to 80k but soon dropped it back down to 40k when they realised that to many belts were failing before 80k. Dont leave it to 100k.
