    Oil filter tip--crack it loose, then use a gallon Ziplock bag to cover the filter while you remove it. Once the filter is off, zip up the bag, toss the whole thing, and you're done. Without the used engine oil running down your arm.

    the elec starter WILL bend the valve stems if its out of time by more than 2 teeth.
    Valve faces are hardened but stems are not.
    Rotate the engine twice BY HAND ONLY, then recheck to make sure the timing marks still align, if so... then and only then, attach the battery terminals and crank it. You may think the cams are locked so they can't move, true but the crank can move.
    slow down, you're doing good work.
    Good job all in all.

  • @richard0crewe
    @richard0crewe 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    That's brave to verify that everything's OK by cranking it on the starter! Better to pull the plugs and wind it over by hand for a couple of turns using a socket and wrench on the bolt on the crank pulley, then check the timing marks still line-up and tension/tensioner is still good.
    If you're just changing the belt and not the seals, you don't need the cam-lock tool. You can release the tension in the cam pulleys before you remove the timing belt by winding everything 90° past the timing marks then winding back to the timing marks.

    1:55 if you were lucky, the coolant level sensor didn't broke this time when you pulled on the wire. But it will the next time: always disconnect the sensor connector first before lifting the reservoir. Remember to mark the gears as shown, so many people removed the gears without marking, lost the timing and could not place them back correctly

    For anybody doing this or replacing the timing belt, use a 30mm socket on the crank pully and turn the engine over in reverse rotation 1 full revolution followed by 2 revolutions in normal running pattern. Then check the timing marks on the cams and crank. Cranking the engine with the plugs removed while using the starter could but will almost certainly cause damage to the valves. Doing it by hand will immediately tell you if there is any interference. This is the method stated in Vida. The information source Volvo techs use. And it won't set any erroneous codes

    Your S60 looked so good to me that I thought it was the much later version! The paintwork and the interior seemed to be in excellent condition too. We have a 2001 S60 since 2012 (256,000 km on the clock) and it was losing engine oil last week and our local repair garage put 4 liters in to get us home (24km) The repair cost 1,200 zloty (About $300) here in Poland, mostly labour for the new camshaft seals and engine oil as well as a new timing belt. I was most happy to pay after watching your video! That was definitely not a job for me! Although in my youth, I had a Ford 1600E that I had to take the engine out as the clutch, flywheel starter ring had become detached, in one day, including taking the bus from Abingdon to Oxford in England to an Engineering workshop and waiting for them to shrink it back on for me! (I had a Nylon double block hoist on a scaffold pipe across my garage while standing on the wings over the engine bay) Thanks for an absorbing and enjoyable video that convinced me it was not a DIY job for me! I can only imagine that your S60 has great acceleration? As ours will beat an Audi or BMW away from traffic lights any day on the original clutch!

    Was a long time Volvo owner until I bought an S80 back in 2000 brand new for close to $40k. The historical bullet proof Volvo reliability was soon discovered to not be true of the S80. Two and a half years later with the end of warranty fast approaching I had to beg to get $14000 trade in on this finicky, miserable to maintain beast. Went Honda and never looked back. Your $450 is about what it was worth, you’d spend much much more at Volvo dealer for the work you did.

    With bottom mounted filter. As long as the oil cap is off you can take a screw awl or other pointy thing and poke a hole in the filter and let it drain out the bottom on the center. You can smack it with you palm and it usually goes right through. Way less mess. Also works for side mounted stuff without getting a ton of oil on the motor.

    That radio control that you mentioned at the end reminds me of the old school headlight switch that also adjusted the dash lights from the 1970's and prior. The cooper coil can be cleaned a bit but really, a whole bunch of fast twists back and forth usually got it somewhat working again.

    Thank for the guidance. I am currently doing my PVC on my 2001 V70 CC. Nasty job. Plus the car was "molested" before I got it. Been sorting out problems for a few months. People should go to prison for what they do to cars. Every time I would start it the throttle body would blow off the air hose. Sure hope all the PVC helps that problem. I think I need a little extra Swedish vodka before I take on take on the timing belt. I used to work on 911 engines and timing those cams was easier. Better access to the work area. I got the parts from FCP Euro, and those people are great. Glad I found you, FCP told me about you.

    Disconnecting the coils wont cause the pistons to not hit the valves if it was wrong, should hand crank the with a ratchet so you can feel it if a valve does hit without causing damage the starter spins it so quickly one rotation would ruin the valves if it was wrong

    @andy530i 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    You could have made life easier by removing the ECU box lid, & mid section - easy to do , just a couple of clips . Also it is not essential to remove the crank pulley , as there is a small guard that sits just under/behind the crank pulley, 2 or 3 M6 bolts to take out , can be a bit tricky, this enables the cam belt to be carefully fed through the narrow gap.
    After fitting a new cam belt on any car you should turn the engine by hand 720 degrees to see if the timing marks still line up - NOT with the starter motor.
    One final point - I didn't notice any axle stands under the car - I do hope you used them, NEVER rely solely on a jack to hold a car up when you are getting underneath it.

    Hey, I bought a 2003 Volvo S60 2.5T AWD for 800 bucks a couple months ago. They guy sold it because he was into GM and Chevy type cars, it has 175k miles. I have a decent oil leak I have to put oil in my car often. I think I traced it to a bad oil gasket seal on my turbo oil return line, and the cam shaft seals, but I also have oil spraying onto my charge pipe in the front of the car and can’t find where that oil is coming from. I’ve went to pick n pull yards and all the other cars I took parts from had that same oil/sludge solid build up on the charge pipe in the front by the dip stick. So far I replaced all o rings, like oil dip stick, oil fill cap. I also recently got a check engine like, it’s an evap code p2407. I got in touch with someone at IPD and they explained it could be a break in one of my hoses, I visually already repaired 3 broken hoses but I still have the light and my car is idling rougher now. My mechanic is swamped with work so it’s just me trying to figure shit out now, I’m doing pretty good. The oil change showed so much carbon build up and the couple after had a little less but still sludge and build up in the filter. I ran an engine flush all that and now my 5th oil change I get used oil wayyy less sludge. I did the glove test on the oil fill cap and it didn’t Inflate it, it sucked in, which means my pvc is still good, but I’ve noticed a ton of oil and sludge caked all around my pvc box under the manifold. What is my next steps? Should I just do all my cam seals and pvc? Or is there something else I’m not seeing. The oil leak shows under the passenger fender and cover the control arm area and all down under the power steering/coolant area. Any advice will be awesome! I use AutoHausAZ, FCPeuro, and IPD if I need to buy new parts, if not I get it from pick n pull I try to save money also! Great video!

      The oil on the passenger side you describe is probably from the front cam seals. It's normal for there to be oil in the charge pipe because of the pcv tube that runs back to the turbo intake hose. Did you replace the evap hoses that go under the intake manifold with the check valve?

Mother of pearl white with tan leather, manual 5 speed with a push-button overdrive. That thing was solid. I would like to know when you sell the s60 although I have really been looking for an s80 V8. See one of those to flip let me know if you don't tackle it. Love the videos JR!

      My cousin and I actually put the seal there on his S70 when we did the job the first time, back when neither of us were too familiar with these engines (between us, I think we've had 8 5 cylinder Volvos lol). Believe it or not, the cap is actually the seal. If you look at the edge, you can see it's grooved just like the cam seal.
