When to replace timing belt Subaru Forester

Does the Subaru Forester have a timing belt or chain? And when should you replace the belt? Below is the overview of the timing belt Subaru Forester replacement interval. For early Foresters, such as the SF generation, Subaru uses a toothed belt to drive the transmission, which is subject to wear and tear in daily use and therefore needs regular replacement. For SF-generation Forester, Subaru recommends replacing the timing belt every 100,000 km or every four years. For SG models, the timing belt should be replaced every 105,000 km or every seven years. There are also models of the Forester that use a timing chain, read more about replacing a timing chain.
