1999 s70 t5 timing belt
1999 s70 t5 timing belt
my s70 t5 has the hydraulic tensioner timing belt but all the listings at the autoparts seem to be with the mechanical tensioner because my car was made before a certain date. would I be safe to get the full kit from a 1998

Are you sure it is a 1999? Is there a VVT actuator on the exhaust cam or an electronic throttle body?

i was considering doing the timing belt because even though it is about 40 000km away from needing to be done it has been sitting for a year without running, i took the cover off and the belt looks good with no cracks and some real miner rust on the pulley surfaces but it makes no bearing noises or anything so i think i will hold off till i get some extra cash in the bank and do the full job in the spring with all the seals and water pump. i only do about 10k km a year .
