Default Timing Belt Change intervals..

As the car gets older, should the timing belt be changed more frequently?

I searched the forums... so at about 70k it should be changed, then at about 130k, and then 160k?

Default 18K posts and you ask that question? You have got to be joking!

but if not, I change the timing belt every 60K regardless. I have followed that rule on my previous VW's also, so not just for the Audi. Every 60K is often enough. I can't help but think you are joking...come on, that many posts and you ask that question?! =-P
