What belts at 30k?
Hi everyone,
I have a Volvo c30 2010 1.6 with 32k on the clock. Yes pretty much never driven before me. Anyway as I've got to the 32k mark I think I heard somewhere I should be changing some belts? Or that it's 10 years old or something. Any advice on what belts need changing and a rough price. Thanks Andy |

The timing belt should be done (also called cam belt) and the auxiliary belt to. The belt should Cost around £25 quid (very rough) each max and larvour would be around 2.5hours for a cam belt and timing belt. If it were me personally with that mileage I would just do the belts however if the garage recommends idler and tensioner (the bit the timing belt runs on) then I would also do that. I would think a decent independent place would charge £180-250 for the belts and an additional £30-70 for idler and tensioner. You will absolutely need to do them given the age not mileage. |
