OEM Volvo Belts

What Do Belts Do in a Car?

As you may know, your Volvo model comes equipped with belts and hoses under the hood. More specifically, belts help move parts in different systems. For example, your Volvo timing belt connects the crankshaft and camshaft. If your Volvo is a newer model, it might come equipped with a timing chain.

Serpentine belts help move the power steering as well as the alternator. Drive belts are responsible for the water pump, radiator fan, and other parts to function properly.

When Should I Replace My Belts?

You're going to want to check your belts regularly for any tears. If you need to replace your belts, you may come across some of these warning signs:

• Cracked belt material
• Belts that hang too loosely
• Belts have been tightened too much

Your owner's manual will have the maintenance schedule for your Volvo model. Usually, the timing belt will need to be replaced between 60,000 and 90,000 miles. On the other hand, timing chains can typically last the entire life of your engine. Serpentine and drive belts should be checked every 60,000 miles and changed every 90,000 miles.
