Wow it has been many years since I've been on this forum. Good to see it is alive and well!
I just bought a 2004 v70 non turbo for my mother with 126,000 miles on it. It came from an insurance company with salvaged title so I don't know the maintenance history on it but it appears and runs as if it's been cared for. Of course with the miles, your mind goes to timing belt so I took the cover off and it revealed a contitech belt in pretty good condition.
I vaguely remember on my 05' xc70 when I did that job if i removed a belt that said Volvo on it, but I can't recall.
Do you guys think I'm working with an already replaced belt? I know the conti is oem but were they stamped contitech from the factory? Or stamped volvo?
Good to see KlausCstill on here! He has helped me a ton in years past.
Thanks you all very much.
Dan
