S40 caught on fire in timing belt area help???
Volvo Gurus! My 2001 S40 caught on fire. The damage looks like it came from the timing belt area as the timing belt cover is melted. Fire Department out and put the fire. Any clue as to what could have caused the fire? Insurance adjuster coming out tomorrow to take a look...

Did you have the timing belt cover off recently? I could imagine if it didn't go on nicely you could get some pretty bad rubbing and heat up, but fire? Bad news right there. Any pics of the damage?
FWIW I didn't have a fire, but I did have the rear cover on the enginecome loose somehow and melt all over the heat shield next to the heater core connections.
