I'm trying to find info on how often this is, but i keep finding conflicting info. Belt changes seem to say anywhere from 60k to 100k and chain changes say 60k/150k and the life of the car. Any idea on the real answer?

I believe the change should last the life of the car, although it hear it rattle it needs changing.
