Hi, Im from Poland. I have v70 and this is my 5fh volvo. I love your content!
Awesome! Thank you!
Good job in explaining the process
Thanks for watching
when the shop did my belt /water pump $600 labor plus i brought FCP parts for them to use as it will throw codes if its set wrong and this is a job for the very VERY advance person , no i can change my plugs or do a brake job that wont work here !
the cams were marked before the belt was removed (on the head) and after the cams moved after the belt was removed so 2 marks per VVT hub ... i see it and have done the belt and water pump in my S70 but this is a much harder job as you need to lock the cams and mark EVERY THING on the S60 .the S70 you just line up the marks and lock nothing down just unbolt and go to work. the S70 like a 2 1/2 job the S60 like a 5-6 hour NOT FUN job
Easy for this job to go south. Lots of fun interaction after that. LOL
I think my 1998 s70 has a similar leak, not as bad, not sure if i should have replaced the seals when i did my timing job about a year ago. I am new to working on cars so i have no clue what im talking about. not sure if it could be a pretty bad problem or not.
also this month been doing a head gasket replacement on my 1994 volvo 850, i traded for it from a friend. the heater core had exploded in 2018 and he gave up on trying to fix it because he couldnt findout why it was drinking coolant so quickly. i replaced the heater core after i got it. it had misfires and bad compression, it was also blowing smoke out the exhaust so i checked the cylinders and they were clean. so i figured it was a blown head gasket. the head gasket looked fine so i took it to a machine shop to level the head they said the all the valves were leaking. might have been warped as well. im hoping it isnt a cracked block, it might be. id be really sad if it is.
I can't think of any scenario where a cracked block would cause smoke. just oil and coolant mixing.
Its very hard to tell oil smoke from antifreeze smoke. probably just a high milage head problem and bad valve stem seals. for some reason the na seals on the early 850 go bad and over heating hurts them. valve job.@@helipad4050
@@helipad4050 usually $300 for a valve job and like $80 to deck the head ,with all parts and machine shop work and you doing the WORK putting it back on the car (new water pump and timing belt,head bolts cam seals THINK FCP EURO as well) about $700 buck will get it back up on the road again OR you can pay $2900 for a shop to do it for you! my 98 s70 (same 850 motor) burnt a valve so ive been there in 2016 ..in 2023 after 3 owners it still sit on my same block right now with close to 300K on the block as they are usually pretty hard core solid, and it had cross hatching in the cylinder walls at 180k that looked new !
@@AwakeDude911 thats cool, im glad im doing the right way
Oil leaks usually get worse.
A hydraulic floor jack is a very flexible and useful tool. Did you add as much flat material as the space allowed, prior to jacking? Also, you can jack in stages, using a jack stand at an intermediate point, and add material under the jack then. You can't expect it to be a direct replacement for the Volvo jack at the jack points. My Indy mechanic studied YT videos to learn the proper procedure to do the timing on my '05 V70 2.5T with two VVT hubs. Looks like you tried a "hit or miss" method.
No, I just didn't lock the cams.
These cars are safe and comfortable but you cannot mistake them for Corollas or Civics. Lots of maintenance and always something to fix on them.
i always say if the HOODS NOT OPEN its not a volvo
Yep
it would suck to tell them you have to take it to the dealer. nice guess. lucky not 2 degrees the wrong way. Its pretty stressful changing timing belts. think how many mechanics had to buy a new engine.
new USED engines at the salvage yard is like $3-4 hundred dollars so its not going to break the bank and in 6 months to a year the junk yard motor blows up thats on you ! nobodys going to give you a brand new engine.
It take a little more than that to bend valves but it is scary.
great job! i have an s60 and this will help me greatly! Hello from South Carolina.

Great work! I have the same problem with my cheap ass floor Jack. That baby is dripping oil like crazy! I wonder why the calipers are spray painted pink? Looks good otherwise.
Because a woman drives a car. 😆
@@RobertDIY,Ahh, makes perfect sense.😂😂😂
Do you have a video that shows how to reset the vvt hub? FCP Euro seal the sale for the vvt hub
Yes I do. th-cam.com/video/gt9w-ZSxs9I/w-d-xo.html
Great video!
Thanks!
Love 💙👮♂️
Thanks for watching
I always watch your videos just wondering when you put those locking tools at the back why you could rotate those spracket back and port? Are those spracket sopose to not moving too when its lock at the back?
The VVT hubs have a little play/movement.
Easier than a timing chain job.
you can say that again.
Very complicated and intricate repair! Your experience with these cars really shined through here.
thanks.
2004 convertible Volvo c70 needs help. Ca Usa
ouch
The procedure is wrong.
The VVT hubs should be bottomed out clockwise direction. Continue rotating the hubs clockwise direction untill the marks align with the notches in the cover. Dont move them back and forth. Bring out the belt and retard both hubs just enough to align the teeth on the belt.
Ok
What coolant was used when refilling? Looks like it may be universal extended life, which is a good choice.
i use G O 5 from advance auto in my old s70 and newer S60
@@AwakeDude911 Oh man, you don't want that in your system. That and the OEM Volvo coolant contain silicates, which destroys the water pump seal and bearing, and borates, which destroys the heater core. This is why you see Robert changing out so many heater cores on these cars. Also, those nasty silicates coats the entire system like a thermal blanket and reduces heat transfer efficiency, the last thing you want on these hot-running engines. I strongly suggest you drain, remove the thermostat and flush with water from a garden hose into the thermostat housing, then refill the system with either Peak Global Lifetime or Napa 1EXT, which coincidentally is on sale at the moment. You do this and you can count on no water pump, heater core, or any other cooling system issues.
What vehicles run this coolant you are married to? I have opened a lot of these coolant systems and if it has Volvo coolant in the system, it has been spotless clean. Water pumps last 20+ years with over 250,000 miles. I've seen some water pumps with more than 500k on them. A lot of these cars run all mixes of coolant in them because people add all kinds of junk that auto part stores sell them anything.
I guess my question to you is... do you have a Volvo and if so, does it have your coolant in it and how many miles with no coolant system parts replaced?
In reality, parts simply wear out. I doubt a coolant type would make ALL coolant parts last a lifetime.
