At most every 100,000 miles, but preferrably every 60,000. The belt itself can last up to 200,000 miles, but this is one of those things you really need to fix before they go bad. If you get unlucky and have the belt break, that will throw off your cam timing, and can rip valves out of the engine, causing major damage
