it dosent say that, but should be replaced every 100k usually over either the 90k or 105k service

It actually says both. Early on mentions every hundred thou, then it specifically says at 200k.

I can't believe he's trying to argue it - it's standard on pretty much every car out there to change the timing belt every 100k. That's used car dealers for you...
