I am replacing the timing belt (for the second time) on my T-5R. A local, reputable, independent repair shop quoted me a price for replacing the timing belt but also suggested that I replace the drive belt, water pump, and do a coolant flush at the same time. It nearly doubles the price. The local Volvo dealer made no recommendation. Do I need to replace the water pump at the same time or is it just extra work/$$ for no benefit. Thanks.
