Hi everybody,

I just joined your forum and this is my first post - so please be patient with me ;-)
We just purchased a beautiful 2005 V50 T5 Automatic with 105.000 miles on the clock and we canīt figure out the timing belt interval.
The car was first registered in California so I was wondering if itīs a PZEV with longer intervals or not?!
Is it save to post the VIN here?

Best,
Mayk - aka "Ze German"

 

what's the engine code? should be listed on a build plate or you can use a VIN decoder to map the 6/7 digits in the VIN. Look the the link below - this suggests all T5s are on the 10 year/ 120K miles schedule.

Ay 105k spend the few bucks for a new belt ect and stop worrying
