New timing belt-sluggish performance? V70-XC70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Esch on  Thu Jan 16 00:25 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I recently had my 70K mile reaming at the dealer which included the installation of a new timing belt (which I think is an OK thing to do having had one snap on a previous vehicle). I was in there anyway getting a multitude of other problems fixed before my VIP warranty runs out at 74K. BTW, I have had at least $7K worth of work done in the last 2 years that was covered by the VIP extended warranty....not bad...or not good depending on how you look at things. Anyway, back to the story. Now that I have the car back, it seems to have lost some zip. Would it be possible that they didn't get the timing set back right....other than that the engine seems to run smoothly.
