All this talk of timing belt and tensioner issues has me a bit edgy.. I bought my s80 as a great deal with 97,000 miles.... now im just over 100,000 miles 5 months later and im genuinely worried about the timing belt. I planned to hold off for the reccomended 105,000 miles but is this reccomended... I dont know if it makes a difference, but im a 'spirited' driver to say the least hahah

Hey tech are you in orlando, I have a misfire issue after putting in a 90,000 engine, and i think that the misfire is because I didn't put the module from the car that it came from which is 2 years new then mine. Engine looks the same but somethings off. I have changed spark plugs, and o2 sensors and 1-6 on the scanner reads multiple misfire. The next thing is to put in 6 new ignition coils but I think I'm wasting $. I can do alot of stuff on the car but this is the stuff that kills me.

it cost me $398 at a machine shop. That's cleaning, pressure checking, recutting seats, back cutting valves, replacing seals, and skimming the surface. Granted it cost me another $300 in seals and hardware to put everything back together. Longest part was removing the anaerobic seal on the cam cover. Boy was that a P.I.T.A.!!!

Ohh..That seems to be very very expensive,You must use the used one so they can be more cheaper and long term. I was having the same problem, and now i replaced them with new one cost($680). They are old but perfect and genuine. Windshield Replacement League City
