Timing belt OEM Honda or OEM Volvo

I know I’m in the UK but a Volvo dealership changed the timing belt, auxiliary belt and kit last year on my V60 D5 and I had change from £300.

I have a 2009 C30 with 80k miles and I just did the timing belt and serpentine belts. The timing belt had noticeable cracks and the tensioner was pretty worn out. Better to get it done and spend the money now than have it snap and have a bricked car.

I changed the timing belt on my girlfriend's 99 accord last year for a grand total of 24 years and 110k miles. To be honest it looked really good and I wouldn't be surprised if it lasted another 15 years

233,000 mi. 2007 accord with 2.4L vtech. Sold the car to a buddy and it is still going strong.

My sister ran her Honda Odyssey 3.5 to 245k miles. Never had a belt.

I had a 2002 Honda civic at 230K and never changed the timing belt.

Use a genuine Honda belt if you decide to replace it, a new auto parts store belt will likely fail before that old Honda belt.

Timing belt is only issue with these.

Mine has been unreliable. The timing belt blew, both lower control arms and shocks needed to be replaced, and also both wheel bearings. Just my experience, I got mine at 130k and I'm at 155k now. Im getting rid of it. \n\n\nSo if anyone wants a c30 with a ton of work done feel free to message me lol. Its perfectly good now, fun to drive and I bet thats about everything that needed to be replaced.

I have a 2007 S60 and the timing belt was replaced by a non-specialist soon after I purchased it. The tension on the belt has to be just right, and the non-specialist mechanic way over-torqued it. Had I not noticed the issue and taken the car to a specialist, it could have pulled the engine apart.
