1990 240 DL Timing Belt Replacement

Discussion in 'Volvo 240' started by totallyludicrous, Aug 30, 2005.

  1. What should the average cost (parts and labor) be for a timing belt
    replacement on a 1990 240 DL (sedan)?

    Don't want to get ripped off at a shop...

    I've replaced the timing belt twice on my '89 240 wagon... the belt was
    around $15-20 at an autoparts store (AutoZone, I think), and the job took me
    maybe 2 hours, working slowly. Easiest timing belt I've ever replaced on any
    of my previous cars!

    Couple hundred bucks at most, or you can do it yourself for about $30 if
    you've got the time and some standard tools.

    Check the water pump too, if there's any play in the shaft have it replaced
    while they're in there.
