Where is the location of the engine number
Simple query really. Anyone know where I can find the engine number on a 2015 V70 D5 Manual.
Need it to make sense of VIDA's (2014D) data on type of tensioner fitted to the aux belt - ( mechanical to engine number 884797 : hydraulic for engines 884798 - 1046801 and then mechanical again from engine 1046802. The really odd thing is the specified service intervals for each type has two intervals the longest being 10 years max, the shortest (earliest mechanical) 2years) Confusingly,I thought the last few digits of the VIN were the engine number.- WRONG lol Cheers Bob |

I had thought they had all been changed to the last one as they were changed in service or on recall.
This is the volvo saga of 3 goes and still not right. Original design found to fail, redesigned, new design found to fail redesigned again. Still a sort of job. My book tells me auxiliary belt every 5 years or 54,000 miles. My car doesnot do the 54k in 5 years so the belt AND tensioner gets changed on time. Given the possible damage to the engine in the event of failier it's not something I neglect or would run to the last possible moment. The tensioner is the achillies heel of the engine and only the 3rd attempt at designing a serviceable item by volvo should be used to replace whatever is there as the others have proven unreliable, no matter the age or number of the engine.

Take your point re keeping the tensioner/belt serviced. 2 points:- Have now read Volvo had a perfectly good tensioner system on the 850, but tried (Ford???) to redesign it - and failed. Why does VIDA give conflicting advice; a service interval but then say to the effect you can leave it for 10 years. While reading up on this, I read the "belts" incl cam belt are not part of the "normal" service schedule and have to be requested by the customer as "extras", and paid for as such.. What ever next, "Thank you Mr Smith your agreed service plan price comes to one pound, the extras incl filters, oil, labour and VAT is £500???? Cheers Bob |

It was redesigned for the P3 cars as the original would not fit the Mondeo body shell.
Yep blame ford, most of the parts I've changed on mine had FO MO CO on them. Wouldn't mind so much if volvo didn't try to rip us off with volvo prices for Ford bits. Paul. |
