Subject code popped up yesterday at 23,700mi. It says I'd need to replace cabin and engine air filters (which I did twice already), as well as inspect accessory drive belt. Clear with the filters, what about the drive belt? is it just visual inspection? do i need someone to do it to have a proof it has been done? I do all the maintenance myself and really have no intention going to the dealership. So what do you guys have to say on this?

Just check the belts for any fraying/nicks on the edges and the ribbed sections for nicks. I highly doubt you'll find anything wrong with the belts.

I don't think you'll need proof of it being done. All the tech at the dealership is going to do is MAYBE take one glance at a belt then check off his list...

Worst case if this belt breaks it won't damage the engine, as long as you don't continue driving it to cause it to overheat.
