Hi Bob Peckham ,73, first time owner of a FWD vehicle.First drove a FWD in Aussie bush whilst Cheffing in construction and mining-camps. This 07 Landy Freelander 2 drives better than any of the Japanese vehicles I used! And many a hairy-butted Aussie "Bushy" agreed with me! Swanning up to the smoke last Thursday my fan_- belt snapped at seventy miles an hour and screwed the power steering as well. After much cursing I nursed the old girl to my mates house and used his mechanic to replace belt and pulley. I asked how long the cam-belt would last .It has done 78000. He said ten years or 150000 miles.Is this correct or will the belt have to be replaced even if I have probably done only 120000? Thanks for your help. Bob
