Wouldn't worry about offending Volvo. I think it's offensive that an auxiliary belt failure could destroy an engine 😂

@Charlie_Crown Год назад

It's criminal, bad design flaw 👍

@davidpayne7898 Год назад

Especially with low miles volvo should replace it

@markf4720 Год назад

Absolutely! Couldn't believe it at first when I heard that, thought it was still the 1st for a minute.

@martinsadler707 Год назад

I’ve seen this several times over the years. This is the first Volvo seen with it but Fords, Merc and several others. Not unusual unfortunately - key is get your car serviced regularly.

Good morning Rob and Chris, another great video, just arrived in India, watching you both from New Delhi. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged

@renefredriksen4589 Год назад

Volvo Mechanich here, this is typicall when the aux belt breaks on these, The cylinder head gets all the beating, the hole where t he hydraulic tappers is placed in breaks. the piston and engine block it self "never" breakes. A new head and the engine is back up and running with no problems. One of the main reasion for the aux belt to go bad is the freewheel on the alternator. check that carefully before reasembly

@madalinnicolae5594 4 месяца назад

Hi there, recently bought a volvo xc60 2017 R des from copart, 73k on the mile, nice on the outside, couple of issues as I received it, it's a run and drive but with the following error codes on the dash: ESC service required, soot filter full, city safety service required ( idk what this is ) ESC temporarily off. Now I knew from the start this car would be needing some maitenance, but I got it for a good deal, so investing in it wont be so bad, it depends how much would it cost me if you'd know? I got my mechanic booked for Thursday but I'm on pins and needles by then!

@jamesallen712 Год назад

Yep. D4/D5 engines do that. 54,000 for the aux belt and 108,000 for the cam belt. If you rebuild the car check the rear suspension bushes (rubber cushions on the rear pivot point) and the front screen isnt leaking as they are a known fault for coming unbonded. Its a pre 2014 model (twin round exhausts) so it's likely to be one that does.

@cypeman8037 Год назад

Love how Chris is always correcting Rob regarding facts, figures and the general story.

@MrCrugwit Год назад

Had exactly same problem after aux belt failure on an XC90, but it smashed most of the tappets out of the head! I highly recommend Autotech Cylinder Heads down in Cornwall... they actually repair these heads and supply fully re-conditioned at a reasonable price, they also supplied me with the full head gasket set and bolts... defo worth a shout!

@johnmontague4245 Год назад

Nice bit of investigation there gentlemen. I’m always impressed by how easy you both make it look and the methodical approach to checking out the various options. Looking forward to the follow up on this one. Cheers guys.

@1066qw Год назад

Full credit to the mechanic at Volvo- he diagnosed the situation perfectly and provided advice to the owners (albeit pretty unwelcome guidance) without needing to massively disassemble (and run up more costs). Liked the additional touch of removing starter relay too! Rubbish situation allround though.

@Dalbayob69 Год назад

I service my XC70 every year regardless of mileage. Usually 3-4k a year. That belt is less than £20 and takes few min to replace so I replace it as well. Preventative maintenance. I also recommend doing gearbox oil flush and change. Volvo as every other manufacturer says it’s lifetime fluid but it’s not. Same with Haldex and rear diff fluid. Wont be a big project for you guys, but will be more costly than others. Looking forward to next videos on this car.

@davidstuart9695 Год назад

It is not the belt, but the tensioner seizing that is the problem. Closer to £100 for a OEM belt and tensioner. Then a couple of hours to fit if you are not a spanner monkey (most people aren’t). Costs rack up. Not saying it is not worth it, just that it isn’t £20. Biggest problem is that when cars get bought and sold and maintenance is done outside of the Volvo network (who uses Volvo at £150+/h once the car is well out of warranty), the catastrophic consequences of changing the belt/tensioner are not known.

@Dalbayob69 Год назад

@@davidstuart9695 yes, in most cases it’s either the tensioner or alternator clutch pulley that causes the wear on the belt. I have both of those changed on mine. But even then after about a year I notice sides of belt getting shredded slightly. So for my piece of mind I change it every year with the oil and filter service. The other part of the problem is people who either don’t know or don’t want to know anything. That’s why whenever I buy a car I change all fluids and belts regardless of how extensive the service history is.

@Dalbayob69 Год назад

@C H no, because you’re supposed to service it every 10k miles or 12 months. Some people only go by mileage and ignore the age. And since I do it myself full service with original parts cost me £150. That’s nothing for annual service.

@jibz6056 Год назад

I am totally hooked on your videos. I love how in depth you go and how much care u guys do when repairing a car, thank you to you and Chris for all the videos you do and appreciate all u do

@andrewpreston4127 Год назад

Thank you. I love how you both address whether a car is worth repairing, then methodically work through it all. No long rants, screaming meltdowns, spanners flying across the workshop.....

@byronmills5952 Год назад

A common issue on D5 Volvo's - its the Alternator clutch pulley seizing that normally causes it. Very strange to see it go at such a low milage though - my own owned from new D5 needed a new alternator pulley at 196k miles.

@pbb81 Год назад

It is important to use Volvo's own belts. They don't fray in the same way, they break straight off instead. The reason that the belts break is that you drive them for too long or that you have bad idlers or freewheels on the generator.

@petter5721 Год назад

Volvo original 👍🏻

@patrickh7368 Год назад

I don’t know …. Jeez… as someone who’s been involved in Design all his working life … I watch RU-vid videos seeing these modern engines, who comes up with these ideas and who approves them..! I don’t get this at all… but it’s just my opinion I guess…🤷🏻‍♂️

@paulketchupwitheverything767 Год назад

Amazed that a failing auxiliary belt caused that much damage. If it had been the cam belt it would be more understandable. Thanks for another interesting video. Good luck with getting another head at a viable price. It looks like there are recon ones out there.

@fivedotsdave9723 Год назад

This is a common fault on modern engines, usually the first part to fail is the aux belt tensioner (it starts to rattle) it then causes the belt to shred, then the shredded belt gets wrapped around the timing belt crank pulley which then causes the timing belt to slip and jump teeth, very few engines are non interference. So if you here that tensioner rattling get it fixed ASAP

@zzzycho Год назад

Interesting video, as an XC60 owner who has replaced my belts and pulleys at 100k(all Volvo parts fortunately), I look forward to seeing how this pans out. Had never heard of this scenario before, looking forward to your next video. Just subscribed in case I miss it, cheers.

@tomball84 Год назад

I'm a big fan of these cars. I drive one, my wife drives one and I've bought, fixed & sold many over the last few years. I haven't started watching the video yet but if its belt related, the castings in the cylinder head will have sheared off. Autotech Cylinder Heads in Cornwall do exchange heads with UPS delivery, they aren't cheap but you'll definitely make your money back & then some. When I have one of these to sell, the phone rings off the hook and it's normally gone in a couple of days.

@sruk Год назад

We already found them 👍

@mondodaftasabrush Год назад

@@sruk Have you bought one ? interesting if they re weld them and re machine them ? ready to fit for a bag of sand understand why so many sold for spares or repair due to parts costs and labour rates never mind a stealer charges

@tomball84 Год назад

@@sruk Excellent, you may as well stop searching now, I went through the same trauma last year and Ian was fantastic. Good news is yours is a D4 AWD, so only 1 turbo to remove! You'll do so much better in this deal than I did with mine, looking forward to seeing it all done.

@tomball84 Год назад

@@mondodaftasabrush Yes they re-weld and re-machine the head, check the cams, rockers, tappets etc and fit replacements if required and ship it out with UPS which is 1-2 day delivery. They also call you up and give you tons of fitting & parts advice without having to ask. I used them last year and they were the smoothest part of the repair process. The price is plus VAT and they waived the core charge despite never dealing with me before, all they asked was that the head was packaged as they sent it and to call them when it was ready to collect.

@richcarter2294 Год назад

Snapped the aux belt on our XC70 last year at 70k and it just dropped to the floor. Thought nothing of it and simply got it replaced. Didn’t realise the risk that this could happen and how lucky we were!! Look forward to pt2…

@jameskyle380 Год назад

I stick to old rear wheel drive Volvo redblocks. 2.3 litre petrol. Had 3 over the last 20 years. 1986 740 GLE, B230K, carb, manual estate in 2003, £425. Owned 6years. 1989 240 GLT Auto estate. Daily driver for 8 years, owned 10 years. Paid £350, sold for £500 in 2018 with 233,000 miles. Ran perfect. Now have a 1996 940 auto estate with the B230FK, petrol, Low pressure turbo,auto estate. Again cost £250 6 years ago. On 208,000 miles. All bought cheaply and easy to look after. A good reliable workhorse. My 940 is a non interference design but change the cambelt for a genuine Volvo one and tensioner every 5 years or 50,000miles, whichever comes first.

@tomtodhunter1776 Год назад

Lovely car, though it looks like it hasn't had the easiest life. I can't believe how choked with carbon it is for 54,000 miles. I sincerely hope that the damage is only to the head. I'm really looking forward to seeing this progress. Top work. 👍

@johnward9626 Год назад

Car surgeons is what you are! Fascinating! Too much to go wrong in these space-age engines. Manufacturers cutting costs?

@n8ydogg Год назад

Seen this time and time again on the d5 engines. Aux belt goes into the cambelt, puts the timing out, piston hits valves, the force goes through the valve, into the hydraulic lifter and shatters it out of the cylinder head. As soon as the rocker cover/inlet is removed you will see the carnage! Replaced a few cylinder heads because of this issue in my time 👍

@johndrew3202 Год назад

Always good to see you discovering the problems and deciding which way to fix them. Thanks for your work and time.

@arcadeuk Год назад

I've got a V70 R design with exactly the same failure. For some reason, people don't think it's important to change the accessory belt as per the schedule, and just wait for them to snap. You can get a Gates belt for under £20 and it's a 5 minute job to replace. Once I get it rebuilt, I'll probably change the belt every 25k instead of the specified 50k

@el_micha Год назад

Some other commentor mentioned an aftermarket device that can prevent the aux belt getting caught up in the pulley. You might want to investigate on that I think.

@johnrichardson9301 Год назад

@stephenricketts7764 Год назад

Well you can't win them all even though I had my fingers crossed. It does look like it was going at speed as you say and would probably just have slowed to a halt once the whole thing 'crunched'.

Hi, do you have any details of that device?

@richardjones5255 Год назад

I suspect that the pressed on cams is really the least of the issues with that one. There was what could rightly be termed carnage in that head, one can only wonder what else has happened. It will be interesting to see, if any parts went on a destructive journey through anywhere else. The pistons might well suffer a headache after partying with the valves, and the valves might well have suffered. It was not stationary when the fan belt let go, but as for speed, I would not like to estimate that based on so little information. More to come, but more to be revealed I feel, I hope I am wrong. An extensive to-do list is incoming. Have a great Easter break.

@phillip1211 Год назад

Exactly what happened to mine XC60. The aux belt on my £16,000 fully serviced Volvo snapped, it dropped down and got dragged into the cam belt housing (there's a gap apparently) got caught up in the cam belt and junked the engine. COSTOF REPAIR £3700. Sometime later I was telling someone about it in a pub when a guy leaned across and said it was quite common. He rebuilt engines for a living. He said it was a known design flaw.

@williamnellist2555 Год назад

Yes the design flaw is the lower cam pulley is a floating pulley 😮 99% of vehicles have a woodruff key. Poor engineering from volvo 👎

It happened to me also, 2008 V70 D5 136kw, the aux belt was changed 10k ago. Allegedly it happened to previous owner also and the seller fixed everything. So this happened to my current car twice in a 10k km period. Fixed it up but i didn´t change hydrotappets and i left the old camshafts, from this day, my car smokes, has bad fuel economy, vibrates a little too much on idle. Just a sad experience overall since the cars has beige ventilated leather seats, distronic, sunroof etc, all the nice extras you could ever want on a family car. Been looking at other brands but.. i can´t sit in a Škoda after owning a Volvo. Rather a older volvo than a newer cheap-plastic Škoda.

Huge carbon build up, torn belt…it may of only done 54k, but unloved and not looked after. So, would you prefer an engine that’s done 150k but impeccable service or 50k no love or attention at all. And now the head it scrap. Just shows how important timely services are.

I thought it looked very unloved for just 54k, looks like its had a hard life!

More fantastic in depth content, love these big failures and your diagnosis and repair. As a footnote, I find modern engine architecture a nightmare, aux belt failure = trashed engine 😡 No wonder PCP’s are so popular, Ditch them as they come out of warranty! An old OHV Volvo motor would run for hundreds of thousands of miles without a blink?

Really enjoyable, like the in-depth approach, like a murder mystery, how did it happen, keep it up your going from strength to strength

As already mentioned - shocking amount of damage caused by that belt going. I like that it needs a new head and you guys are utterly not phased... walk in the park for you lads ;) Over to the Rob parts ferret now ;) This is where Rob earns his keep - finding a nice new head for it. Deffo worth saving, as you said - when the engine is back running, that will be a lovely car for someone. PS -that carbon build up !!!! My Q7 is at 58K miles - wonder what lies under the nice engine cover...
