Volvo S60 Timing Belt Replacement DIY (2015-2018 Volvo P3 S60, V60, XC40, XC60, XC90)

[@tchurtinher7581]

Amazing job explaining this process. Very clear and easy. Thank you. It helps so much that you list the tools you need and the specs needed to get the job done.

[@SyncMan172]

Very good video indeed and the quality of the workmanship was spot on

[@alanaz4265]

White paint pen works great for your reference marks, highly visible too.

[@Mark-nm6zw]

Would be a good idea to change out the camshaft seals while doing this job in the diesels, they seem to perish and weep. Great video mate 🙌

[@goodamnesia]

Terrific vid. Excellent work and editing!!

[@fcpeuro]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kingsleyegeonu1459]

Thanks. This is a great and informative video.

[@HaZTuR]

Great video. And nice to see some p3 videos. Much appreciated. Please continue with more =). Is this procedure equal on the d3 4 cylinder turbo (D4204T9)?

[@kentswahn8989]

Great video, while doing a timing belt on these it is also a good idea to inspect the right engine mount they do collapse over time.

[@Bellakelpie]

Excellent video. A great help in planning future pro active maintenance on my 2016 Volvo V40, which has the same 2.0 litre “Drive E “ engine that is shown here.

[@theundertakerrx5913]

Nice video but the camgears do have markings, you can see them when you are marking them. The little dent in the camgear goes right in front of the 2 tips sticking out on the back plate

[@bradleypollack5658]

You guys should build a kit to override the auto/start stop kit for this engine. They have these for VW’s etc.

[@arq19831]

Nice job. Thank you

Great video! Thanks!

[@larrylove9589]

great video.

[@philstokes9800]

Thank you, great video clear and well presented. Can I ask one question though? In VIDA, it seems to indicate that the inlet cam VVT pulley should be rotated clockwise using the cog wheel on the locking tool before locking the cam, prior to removing the timing belt. You don't appear to do that in the video, so can I assume it isn't necessary?

[@2cents740]

I would love you see any video of the piston ring replacement for the 2014 s60 t5. You make great videos and unfortunately, I think I will have to replace mine due to the oil consumption problem. At 104000 miles. I'm not the first owner and not sure the repair background of car. I try to do as much dyi as possible because we are poor,and I like to know what exactly goes on with repairs. I foolishly didn't read about this problem before we bought and now have to tackle this problem. It's a shame. Thank you for your videos.

[@chadr00]

My 2015 xc60 drinks about 1 qt in 600 miles. We will just drive till it doesn't run I guess. It has about 160,000 mi and it's been like this for a couple years or more. We bought it with close to 125k if I remember correctly.

[@thayalansuntharalingam1051]

Changing oil quickly like every 2k might remove debris from rings and reduce consumption these were newly designed rings.

[@강문성-w1n]

Your the best!

[@jonln3]

Thank you

[@2cents740]

What if i rolled the cam wheel backwards while putting on cam lock tool? How would you start from scratch?

[@clintzalek8942]

Adam, informative channel you have on KZbin. I’m a newly 2015 Volvo S60 owner but unfortunately it came from Caravan without any updates on schedule maintenance that they claimed was completed with a 150 pt inspection. With that they and Silver Rock have denied ever repair submitted for warranty coverage. This leaving costs over 3 grand out my pocket. My new found problem is a loud screeching noice coming from that exact spot when the car is idle or riding under 30 mph. Both belts look in good condition but clearly something is a miss. Do the timing and serp. belts need updated? I need to figure this one on my own as my bank is busted after replacing rotate brakes tires struts 2weeks ago. I have a video for the sound. Any insight would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance for reading and look forward to your response.

[@GwenGreenberg]

Look at the oil trap as a cause. Confirm by seeing if the noise disappears when you remove the oil filler cap

[@antoinelcf6311]

Hello , I have a volvo v40 2.0 t3 2016 i would like change the timing belt but i don't have a torque of the camshaft pulley. would you have this information please ?😊

[@JP-fz7hq]

Great video i have 2 questions What is the part number for the 2 stretch bolts for engine mount that needs to be replaced? And is there no need to use locking tool on the other side of the camshafts?

[@jeremychesser9705]

Where did you get the tool that mounts to rotate engine to line up marks and what is it called?

[@adelrabah9662]

Can you help me how do I set it back to time if I started and it was already off time?

[@getlostinit3D]

Great video. This is the first video featuring a V60. I have a 2015 V60 2.0 that has zero compression in cylinder 3. It of course has excessive oil consumption issues which probably led to the cylinder failure after 145k miles. I owe money on the car and need it for work so I am forced to rebuild it myself. If there are any resources you know of that would help the process of removing the engine and putting new piston rings in. Engine rebuild parts list? I am working on one now but this never Volvo is unknown to me and not a lot of information on them.

[@Charles-fk1ny]

I can email you vida and volvo bulletin procedure with images, step by step instructions, and torque specs for piston and ring diy. Let me know if you are interested.

Much easier than the 5 cylinder because there's more space available. Doing my wife's 2012 C40 was painful. Our 2016 XC90 was as easy as it looked. With my Audi A5 you have to move the whole front end forwards.

@@Welwynnick hey do you mind sharing hoe you were able to set the timing for your Volvo xc90, have a hard time. Thanks

@@ralphlauren8859 I hope you haven't taken the belt off without marking all the pulleys. That's what I used.

Thank you, and yes Zimmermann!

I have this same engine that I removed the cylinder head to replace a burned valve. I need the torque spec for the camgear pulleys. I have searched Alldata and google and can`t seem to find it anywhere.

[@ralphlauren8859]

Hey did you ever figure it out ?

[@WyattAshpaugh-j4t]

I have a 2015 Volvo s60 with 2.0l and when redoing the timing after assembly I find that there are no procedures that show me which way the cam slots line up. Any info is appreciated.

[@ralphlauren8859]

Did you ever figure it out ?

[@corpus1467]

So what could possibly gone wrong? I brought my lovely 2016 V60 T5 to a Swedish Motors Repair shop. There was absolutely nothing wrong with my car. After the timing belt replacement, my car started shaking/ almost dying in iddle mode and it is burning CRAZY amounts of oil. I am driving now around with a blue tail and get an oil exchange every 4 weeks because my car is literally running out of oil-no leak. It drives great. When I went back every 4 weeks for an oil exchange, they told me that my car is old now and has high mileage ... I am so confused.

[@andrewdorazio3990]

My 2013 S60 T5 does the exact same thing. Bought it used at 100k miles and it burns through about 2 quarts a week.

If you had one of these with cams out of time, how would you verify the timing without marks? I have the tools to hold the cams and everything, but supposedly the one I'm about to work on is out of time.

[@fksloga]

SPECIAL TOOL COST 400$ PLUS. IS THERE A CHEAPER OPTION TO TURN THE CRANK OVER TO CHECK FOR ENGINE FAILURE?

[@ryanspeck2248]

Just put a socket on the big bolt going through the crank pulley

[@looncraz]

You can do install the pulley and use the center bolt to turn the engine.

[@Parents_of_Twins]

Is the 2.5l engine similar to this one? Thanks

[@looncraz]

Very similar once the timing cover is off, but the 5cyl tool kit is very different - you lock the cams from the opposite side and there's a process for loading the VVT hubs.

Not really, you usually only do this once in the life of the car (that gets you to 300,000 miles).

they are 4 cilinders not the 6 ones which use chain
