d5 cambelt tensioner failed at 35k miles!!
just had to have the car recoverd as the tensoiner has failed at 35k miles the belt has cut throught the plastic casing and then fallen off!!!
Have been in touch with volvo who say it might be under warrantry but i think they will try and get out of it even though the belt doesn't need changing until 9ok miles acorrding to volvo I know a few others have had the same problem any one had any joy for volvo in the past want to be armed before I go into the main dealers |

warranty
If you ask your dealer I think you will find there will be a full waranty echange in your case.

warranty 'rules'
We've got a D5 in at the moment with 40k on clock - tensioner failed, engine killed. New engine coming from Volvo under warranty. If car is under 4 years and less tha something like 150k on clock (obviously on 2nd belt/tensioner by then) the full cost should be covered. Otherwise - argue!
