The Volvo timing belt kit consists of the belt, tensioner and idler pulley. It doesn't include the water pump as these very rarely need changing and Volvo don't regard this as a service item. When checking the water pump for leaks or roughness and deciding it does need changing only fit a Genuine Volvo pump as after market are guaranteed to leak in the not too distant future.
Edit: Your local dealer is pathetic if they can't be ar*ed to order the kit for you - it isn't rocket science. Try FRF at Swansea - Volvo main dealers - Very helpful and post parts and also offer a discount to forum members.
