Stu,
80K is Recommended Mate... but if it WASN'T YOU that did it last time & all you got is a bit of paper SAYING it was done .. GET IT DONE ASAP (anyone can WRITE its bin done) Whether it has or Hasn't been ... Keith

Also if yer doing it yerself contact FRF (ON HERE) Si will give you the "PROPER" deal & Remember to change out the Water pump while yer at it ... you may as well its only £85 quid (ish)... & to swop it out AFTER the Timing belts done is EXACTLY the same AS DOING THE TIMING BELT .. so Two Jobs in ONE hit ..
Saves yer Time & money Stu, Keith

Stu,
I've seen LOADS of Posts on Here & my own Volvo Site http://www.volvovehiclesclub.org.uk/forum yeah HONEST I do (part) own another Volvo Forum where people have bought Volvo's (or Any car really) where it SAYS in the paperwork that the cam/timing belt HAS BEEN DONE & weeks later they end up with a engine in bits !!!! Whenever I buy a car ( & at my age I've had LOTS!!) the very first thing I do is the Timing Belt As I said ANYONE CAN WRITE "Timing belt done" if YOU KNOW (or you've done it yerself THEN (& ONLY THEN) can you TRUST IT HAS BIN DONE Keith
