How long do you run your Serpentine Belts

I don't even know!

I acquired the car at 58000 miles and have driven it to nearly 190000. So...132k miles?

I have been catching up on a lot of maintenance lately and I thought about swapping the belt just on principle...but honestly, it looks like it's in great shape.

Maybe I'm just lucky?

when you look closely at the belt if it has any large cracks or lots of small ones on the drive surface, that is time to replace it. KB

When it starts cracking or otherwise looks bad. That seems to start around 80k for my vehicles. Probably the Houston heat and summer ozone has a lot to do with that.

Just went out to look at it. I can only see about 3" of the top of it. I think I'd have to have the car on a lift to see any more of it from underneath. Looks like a nightmare if it ever broke on the highway.

Sounds like it's really crammed in there. For the cost of the serp belt vs. peace of mind I'd probably replace it when the timing belt is done.

Well if you have an east-west engine, expect that sort of s*it. In a RWD, it is a piece of piss to change drive belts.
