    I believe Mazda's use a timing chain, no need for replacement.

    +1 on the previous comments here.

    You may need to replace the serpentine/AC belts at some point but those are the only belts. Timing chain used on the 3.

    Yeah it's a chain on these cars FTW! My first 3 had 360000km on it with no belts changed. My current 3 with 160 000km shows to wear on the belts.
