How to Replace the Timing Belt on the Volvo V70?

Model: Volvo V70 MK 2 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Timing belt

To replace the timing belt on the Volvo V70, open the bonnet and remove the protective cover located on the left side of the engine block: you will first need to remove the coolant reservoir and the power steering oil reservoir. Next, remove the right front wheel along with the inner cover of the wheel arch. This will provide access to the tensioner pulley, which, once removed, will allow you to reduce the tension on the belt itself, sliding it off the respective toothed wheels. This way, you can fit the new belt and reassemble all previously removed components.
