General: - D5 54000/3 Year service

upv5 · Jan 14th, 2021, 16:25

Just put our XC60 D5 in for service at 3 years and 19000 miles, was surprised they were planning to change the aux belt. I believe this is a 54000 mile or 5 year item. Luckily I saw the service actions and stopped the belt being changed but if my wife had taken the car in I guess it would have been done. Is this now Volvo policy to change the belt at the 3 year/54000 service no matter how many miles the vehicle has covered.
There was no mention of the tensioner although I believe this should be changed with the belt.
Can't complain about the actual service as it came out at £171 including VOC discount although I supply the oil courtesy of Opie oils which works out about half the price the dealer charges.

Aux belt is every 5 years/54,000 miles (whichever comes first) on the D5. The tensioner is 10 years or 108k (whichever comes first).

As far as I know anyway...
