Belt change advice

hicky70 · Nov 20th, 2018, 10:58

My XC70 55 plate 177K miles car needs a service soon.
I've had it serviced/gearbox oil/rear discs and pads done since I bought it in April. I'm considering for peace of mind having the cambelt done this time round rather than wait....is there other associated belts and pulleys to be done also....?
Thanks
Carl

The belts should have been changed at 108000 miles but if you have no evidence a good idea to do them ,you need the cambelt kit and 4 crank pulley bolts ( if a 5 cylinder diesel ) you also need the Aux.belt and it's tensioner and wheels ...

It was done a 98K, D5 Diesel(I should of added

)
Any general ideas of costs...?
I need a reluctor ring doing too so I just want a rough idea of the sheckels for belts etc.

Main dealer did my D5 cambelt recently, £295 all in.

Hi I think just the parts cost me close to that, for both belts and pulleys
