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

volvo have not done anything other than the usual plastic covers over the belts and pulleys , If you maintain the vehicle properly and change the Aux belt at the prescribed intervals with volvo genuine parts it is highly unlikely it will happen to you . The xc90 is particularly robust as it still uses the old thick AUX belt and well proved tensioner which goes back many years , The potentially troublesome engines are from 2007 when the Aux belt became thinner and narrower that is why volvo reduced the change interval to 54000 miles . However the XC90 still uses the old engine which did not give trouble .

Thanks for your reply Clan, I would certainly replace the belts and tensioners as per volvos servicing regime. Regarding the newer 'Short stroke' 2 litre 5 Cylinder engines fitted to the XC60, are these generally a robust engine?

It is exactly the same as the familiar 2.4 D5 except the shorter stroke so it feels smoother and torque is not that much less :-)

i'm very sceptical of this , It is a lot of money , It is not tested or proved to do the job , and for the cost you can buy a new belt and tensioner anyway !

The few engines I have examined first hand with tangled belts have had the broken aux belt enter the pulley at the top not the bottom ...
