probably no one:regular_smile: But driving a diesel Volvo 2007-2017 without a timing belt shield is as risky as racing

Its never been tested and proved to work has it ..... There are massive forces involved when the belt gets tangled . for example it can rip the tensioner off and take part of the block with it ..

"racing part, not suitable for highway use"

I guess this is a get out clause when it doesn't work ...

In fact, it works. There are good experiences with the functionality of the product. The product has not been applied for E-approval, so it is not sold for a highway use. This is reason why "racing part"
Those Volvos have poor original timing cover protection. There is major risk if serpentine belt snapped it can go to the under the timing cover and broke the engine.

Good God, and there's me driven 3 of them to over half a million combined miles without one, relying only on genuine parts and diligent maintenance. Im clearly a maniac!

I know i have been fixing them for years how have you tested them?

they only break if not changed at 54000 miles

137 Euros will buy a couple or three new v-belts, so is it not better just to change them when they are due (or before)?

I absolutely agree with you, this is not the money to save on such an important detail!

So it isn’t suitable for “ordinary” cars, only race cars? I don’t see many V70’s or S80’s flying around Silverstone.

The force when a belt snaps is huge. I can’t see how that metal will do anything & it hasn’t been proven to work either. If it did, I’m sure Volvo would have come up with a solution via recall.
