Beware of the 100,000 mile timing belt 900 1995

That's one of the EGR-equipped 940Ts with the "100,000" mile timing belt?

The last time I busted a timing belt, it was $299. Practially the very same price as it cost you.

How pissed would you be if that was an interference engine?! Although, I strongly suspect that Volvo wouldn't have spec'd a 100k change interval on that car.

Somehow I'm doubting that the belt is any different for the 940T w/EGR (100k) or the 940T/940 w/o EGR, with the "50k" belt. I wonder if they just used the same belt and called one 100k because they knew it wouldn't break.

"I didn't see" a distinction in the parts catalogs. (= admitting possible misinformation, not to be interpreted as truth)
