At 72,000 miles - but it is vital to replace things like the tensioner pulley, idler pulley, water pump as well. My cambelt was replaced but not the pulleys. The tensioner pulley bearings failed at 120,000 miles which allowed the cambelt to slip and wrecked the engine. Not economic to repair so the car (worth approx £2,500) was a constructive write-off plus cost of stripping down to investigate, hire cars etc, etc. Complete disaster. Currently looking to garage that serviced it to reimburse me.

Your belt on your 1996 Honda Civic Dx makes noises when you down shift or stop what belt is that?

It can be the cam belt or the serpentine belt. The cam belt must be replaced every 90,000 miles. Warning: This is an interference engine. If the belt breaks you will have serious engine damage. Replace the cam belt if it is due for replacement. Inspect the serpentine belt and replace if you see any cracks or fraying. If the serpentine belt looks fine or you replace it and the noise is still there, replace the cam belt no matter when it was last replaced. It can be the idler pulley for the cam belt needs replacing and is not holding the correct tension on the belt. This can cause the belt to break even if it is new.
