My wife took the `04 XC70 into the dealer this morning to have the T belt, etc changed. She just called to say that the tech had found the timing belt in excellent condition but the water pump is leaking a little. And as always happens in these situations, they don't seem have a water pump in stock.
The previous owner had the tbelt/water pump changed at an "indie shop" so after market parts were used so I`m guessing that`s likely why the pump is leaking at this point.
Breaking news!! Just had another call & they do have a pump in stock so I gave my wife the "go-ahead".
Maybe I should have had them replace the Tbelt with a Volvo belt??
Thanks,
Rich
