Volvo Owners Club Forum - View Single Post - For sale: Volvo 2.4d\d5 timing belt additional protection

SFVOLVO · Oct 3rd, 2019, 10:30

Hello,

I am a potential XC60 buyer looking at a MY2013 D5204T3 engine 2.0 5-cylinder 163bhp example.

I have been reading this thread and others with interest and commend the OP efforts on designing and offering a solution to the D5s apparent weak spot.

My question is: What did Volvo do to protect the cam belt on D5 engines from 2012 onwards? And has this modification been a success?

Also was this done for the 2.0l 5 cylinder variants ?

Cheers
