AboutRoger Patricio Expertise Can answer all Volvo car questions. European and Canada spec cars are different but I can try to help you.
Experience I am a Certified Volvo Tech at in Independent Volvo Repair shop. I grew up around Volvos and decided I wanted to do it professionally. I worked at the dealer for about a year then I went to work at an Independent shop which I have been with for 10 years.
Question What is involved in changing a timing belt? I have done it before on my Toyota pickup. What will happen if the belt breaks on my Volvo? Need instructions with pictures if possible.
Answer Ward, no way. If it breaks game over. Bent Valves. Spend the money and have a Volvo shop take care of it. Too involved for me to try explain how to do it. Its not fun on this model, and you need a special tool if the seals are leaking. Sorry, Roger
