Volvo S60 Serpentine Belt Replacement DIY (2015-2021 Volvo P3 S60, S90 V60, XC40, XC60, XC90)

►This video covers how to replace a Volvo serpentine belt on the P3 chassis from 2015-2021. This covers cars such as the S60, S90, V60, V90, XC40, XC60, & XC90 with the T5 4-cylinder 2-liter turbo engine.
Volvo has given the serpentine belt a 150,000-mile, or 10-year service interval; whichever comes first. We recommend you start thinking about replacing the serpentine belt around 130K miles.
In this video, Adam Goral, FCP Euro's Volvo Catalog Manager, replaces the serpentine belt on a 2015 Volvo V60.

Tks for the How To video. I just did this job and want to post a few tips. The coolant reservoir must be tipped forward towards the front of the car to give you clearance for the front torque strut bolt to be removed. Pull the large coolant hose out of its plastic bracket for more wiggle room. Access the 2 tensioner bolts thru the wheel well , not from under the hood. It’s easier and you can use a ratchet to both remove and install. The 3rd bolt takes a wrench from under the hood. To remove the belt you stick a 19mm open end wrench over the rear edge of the tensioner and pull towards the front of the car while slipping the belt off of the alternator pulley. You need to exert quite a bit of force on the tensioner to slacken the belt enough to get it off the pulley. Note : there is no specific place where the wrench sits. It just slips over the slightly protruding edge of the tensioner. The video and explanation is not crystal clear in this step.

Adam and Jay do the BEST step by step DIY VIDEOS! You rock my world!

[@batteryman16]

Well im glad there was more space on the xc60. I didnt have to remove anything to get to it and replace the tensioner. Thank you for this video.

[@zuluwarrior791]

Brilliant, very competent performance and clearly and logically explained. Thanks also for all the torque settings, extremely useful. Well done.

[@dalsim0072]

Would be awesome if you were to update the video/add another one for the supercharged T6 versions (S90/V90) given they use a different pulley and tensioner model/setup.

[@gmanpsycho5962]

Thank you so much for this video. These steps help me on my 2017 XC60 2.0T. It looks like the engine was the same as mine. It would be nice to have a conversion from Nm to ft./lbs. Excellent work though.

[@johnfletcher5767]

You are a professional.thanks for your information

[@jesuisprest4175]

I always appreciate the videos from FCPEuro, always thorough and informative. However in this case I do have provide a note or two on this installation. Removing the front right wheel, fender liner, and the engine mount bracket is NOT necessary at all. The wheel and fender liner is absolutely NOT necessary. The engine mount bracket might make things slightly easier, but honestly it was not in my way at all. I was able to remove the serpentine belt and tensioner without any trouble, using basic hand tools. The hardest thing was getting the 13mm bolt to line up for the tensioner, but once that was threaded, the rest was a cinch.

[@oscarquezada895]

Nice, good work on the video, can't wait to see a video of how the timing belt is replace too

[@fcpeuro]

You're the best Matan Vaknin, thanks for the support!

[@giorgioguidolin]

Thank you for the video. It is the same procedure to replace the Alternator?

[@mikerefutesapetheists3398]

8:59 is all I need 😎👍

[@WheelAndRimRepair]

A big Help THX

[@tennisfitapp]

My belt Snapped but did not look old nor no cracks in it just pure snap - do you know why? All wheels “alternator” and the other one moves well.. could it be broken tensioner of so how to check! V69 D4 . Thanks

[@marcospashiardis783]

How did you take the tension off. I cant see the tool you used

[@belos65]

Thank’s for one Good Video

[@fcpeuro]

😎

[@TEK9218]

How does my tensioner doesn't align with the 13mm and I have to fight to get it in and spring bends

[@santiagobarrero186]

@fcpeuro we need one on the timing belt

[@fcpeuro]

Like this one? kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKfIhYCKq5KUptk

[@ignaciovalenzuela2144]

is it the same for the V40 T4 2.0 2019?

[@belos65]

Hello! Thanks! Too good video. Is it exactly the same on a D3 engine? (Volvo Diesel engine, 4 cylinder), to change the Drive Belt, and Tensioner?

[@scottysvensson]

D3 is i5. Which model do u have? 🤔

[@belos65]

@ Hi! My Volvo is a s60 D3 2.0 Liter Engine code D4204T9 Thanks! from Tommy

[@belos65]

@ I'm not sure what to do with the camshaft gear when I'm going to tension the timing belt. I know that you have to zero the engine so that the crankshaft and camshaft gears are in zero position. And that I then remove the old timing belt. And then loosen the 4 screws a little so that the high-pressure pump gear becomes a little loose. And that I lock this gear with a suitable locking pin. But I wonder if I have to loosen the screws for the camshaft gear too? Can you loosen the screws for the camshaft gear without locking the camshaft? Thanks! from Tommy

[@jozuba]

Guys, the timing belt video went online yesterday or the day before

[@fcpeuro]

thanks jozuba hahah, confused us for a second!

[@jozuba]

@@fcpeuro you‘re welcome! Merry xmas and a happy new year!

[@christianfritz3373]

Will this work for my 2012

[@enriquegarcia455]

can u do a alternator replacement please

[@fcpeuro]

Hi Enrique, we can add that to the queue!

[@dhirajpaine2107]

Good👍

[@goretotheworld]

Yeah... if you're doing the belt, don't do any of this, literally working on one of these right now, you can get to everything without stripping the car down to the studs lol

[@Dainslaif]

I was gonna say - on my old Mustang you just needed to release the tension with a wrench and pull the belt off like he does at 6:09. Hopefully I can just get in there with a wrench without tearing everything apart since I don't need to replace the tension pulley as well.

[@Tripp111]

No special timing belt tool required?

[@fcpeuro]

Not for the serpentine belt replacement!

[@douglasforren1930]

Do you have to take the belly pan off?

[@fcpeuro]

Hi Douglas, it just allows you to have another place to reach when doing this DIY.

[@Norvecli24]

👍👑

[@adriancabulea9373]

Who teach you to change only timing belt withouth whater pomp??????

[@dalsim0072]

Lol. These cars have electric water pump. Glad you know your stuff too!

[@lawrencedunn]

WTF, this is a 30 second job on a benz! Great tutorial though.

[@scottysvensson]

2.0T is a Ford engine, not Volvo! used 2011 2012 models only here in Norway 🤔 T5 is not 2.0T

[@garykick9825]

my belt is on the driver side so this video was not help.
