In this video tutorial, you will see how to replace the timing belt on a Volvo S70 by following a few simple steps that will guide you to properly manage your vehicle. The first thing you need to do is lift the hood and secure it with the prop rod. Next, remove the timing belt cover using a 10 or 12 millimeter wrench.

Once you have loosened the bolt, set it aside; then grab the cover with both hands and remove it from its housing. At this point, the engine must be rotated clockwise to align the timing marks.

You can also remove the splash shield for better access. Now, using a 30 mm wrench, turn the bolt until the marks are aligned.
