If you drive a Volvo V50, you should know that it comes with a timing belt rather than a timing chain. It is important to get the timing belt checked and possibly replaced every 12 months or after driving 10,000 miles. While it is uncommon, most replacements happen around 60,000 miles. If the belt is faulty, it should be replaced early, which could cost between $120 and $240 for parts alone. If you opt for a professional mechanic or automotive service technician to do the job, expect to pay an extra $50 to $240 for labor.
Replacing the timing belt in a Volvo V50 typically ranges from $480 to $560, including both parts and labor.
