2000 V70 XC timing belt change question V70-XC70 2000

posted by  someone claiming to be wheels on  Mon Jul 7 04:55 CST 2008 [RELATED]

Hi--I have a 2000 V70XC with 90k miles-its been a great car and Iv maintained it well. It has the orig T-belt and has 90k miles. Should the belt be chaged now or it is safe to change at 105 as the manual says. Im thinking about changing it now-due to the age of the car-basically 9 yrs old. The belt looks ok-but..... Just curious about others opinion on this..Thanks

It all depends on your comfort level. It is not belt critical, but tensioner critical. Get a new tensioner and roller and check the other rollers, including those for the Sbelt.
