Does anyone know a rough price I should be paying for a cambelt change on one of these things? Just had a rough cost with a brake fluid change and the price was starting from £600+ which seems a little steep.

I have no idea about a 2.0T, but my S60 D5 cost around £200 using OEM parts at an indy for the cambelt alone.
The brake fluid change wouldnt be more then £50 in my eyes but willing to be told wrong.

They are piss to fit - even with a genuine Volvo kit inc tensioner - no more than 300-350 - chuck a water pump on maybe 400 max and that includes 150-200 on parts depending if you go for genuine or patent - always go genuine with a cambelt kit
