This week my son has been ill so the planned video got cancelled and this is what i had time for. I will always put my family's well being before RUclips and sometimes, like this week, I will have to scale things down.
Running a RUclips channel outside of a normal life with a fulltime job is VERY hard and time consuming and it doesn't take much for the deck of cards to collapse. But don't get me wrong, I love doing this even if it gets tough sometimes.
Anyway, I got a comment on the belt tensioner while assembling the engine a few videos back. Apparently I installed the tensioner in the wrong way (Yes, I Am human and make mistakes..)
I was going to correct that in the video while fitting the engine in the car (And that was the original plan for this weeks video) but then, BOOM, life happens and you got to scale things down. So, why not do the whole VVT thing from the beginning to end while adjusting the tensioner in the correct way.
Now, the VVT is something that I avoided in the disassembling and assembling of the engine simply because I have never done it before, it is quite sensitive, and I didn't have the special tools required. But I got hold of some documents from Volvo on how to do it, and in this video I try to share that experience with you.
This video hopefully covers the VVT on the B5254T engine with the Single Exhaust VVT. In the future, we might run the dual VVT engine. Maybe I will cover that in a future video.
If you have any questions or concerns, please leave a comment.

I think your way to put the belt on is just perfect! Thanks for the video.
Excellent video. Helps visualize the instructions very nicely. Only thing I wanted to offer is that the 3 locking bolts on the VVT sprocket and the 3 bolts on the intake cam sprocket should all be left about 1/2 turn loose till after the final belt tension is set or sometimes the belt tension indicator will move to a different spot after turning the motor and you will have to apply the locking tools and loosen the locking bolts again and readjust it. Keeping them loose till just before removing the locking tools helps nail the belt tension first try.
Great video explanation of how to do this job, I would have been lost without it. Excellent instruction showing the engine out of the car really helps.
I had no problem in the past with just changing just the timing belt on my B5254T. This time I had a clogged PVC breather system over pressurize the crankcase and push a cam seal out on the intake side. Decided to change out all camshaft seals and crank seal along with resealing the cam cover and replacing the PCV. Thanks!!
Hey any chance did your car idle very rough, and have a very rough acceleration? Just trying to diagnose my problem.
@@ryanplaistek9501
Not on my engine, just a massive oil leak due to the cam seal being blown out of its seat.
Fricking awesome video. Thank you. I have dual VVTs and I am doing a complete seal job (cams and crank), timing belt, accessory belt, water pump, all idlers, tensioner, etc. 2005 S60 2.5T AWD with 256,000 miles. It's is a decent level of difficulty! Your video was key to me understanding the specifics of installing the VVTs.
Thank you for your very clear instructions in this video. Having the engine out of the car certainly makes everything easier to see. and understand.
Thank you so much for the complete procedure with some good explanations
Thanks a lot for that !! I am working on a swap on a 2005 xc70 and am still practicing locking the cams on the old engine! Waiting on the other kind of cam locking tool the one like a slab of aluminum with 4 smooth pins on it!
This was extremely helpful. Thank you so much!
Hello Thank you for your Video. I have a 2,4T with the T7 Engine. It has hydraulic vvt. I watched many videos and read the Volvo manual. Your Video really helps. My fault was that I fixed the 3 scews in the end position in the pulley after fixing the center srew. For the hydraulic I did exact like you - one Notch bevor the mark. And then you can see that the mark let's the gear move one in both directions. Then the belt to the marks at the cover.
I didn't find ONE description that explains it the right way.
Thanks!!!
Snyggt jobbat 🤘🏻
I have to do cam seals and the book is not accurate. This video fills in all the gaps. The use of the crank and cam locking tools is great. Setting the VVT sprocket is what I was wondering about. So helpful👍👍👍👍.
Thanks 👍
Thank you Sir! This was quite helpful.
thanks bro is so easy you explain!!!!!
Great Video!! Excellent instructions
Thank You !!
Super great, clearly video. Thanks
bravo...good work
Well done.
Greetings from Poland.
Thanks! //Backman
Great videos....
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
👍
Excellent step by step video thanks….I found this video after I replaced my cambelt( it’s so much more difficult when engines is in vehicle). If replacing belt in engine, I would also suggest taking a photo and counting the teeth on the old belt between the marks before it is removed , especially if you don’t have the cam locking tools.make your own scribe marks will also help on all the pulleys,
Thanks
Ja det va ett par år sedan du la upp denna videon, men den hjälpte mej big time nu när jag monterade ihop motorn till min XC70! Enkel video att förstå, sen att det är mer än lovligt trångt att göra det med motorn i bilen e en helt annan sak 😂
Tack, kul att den va till hjälp. Och ja, det kan va lite tightare irl så att säga. 😀
Grymt jobbat 😎👍🏻
Tackar 👍
Good video. I will refer to this in the coming days to reassemble the timing on my 2001 Volvo V70 XC with the 2.4 turbo. The water pump bearing failed causing the timing belt to jump and resulted in bent valves in the head. I diasassembled the enging last fall and am only now putting it back together with a rebuilt head and all new timing components. I've just subscribed to your channel. Thanks for posting this video !
Thanks!
Great !
Very very informative. I have already changed my timing belt water pump alternator serpentine belt and was getting ready to put on a new starter and I do believe I have a leaky head gasket. Smoke just pouring out the back and water seems to be going right through
Make sure you don't have a cracked cylinder instead. cracking is common on the 2.5 liter block and it mimics the symptoms of a blown head gasket.
@@GoldenGrenadier What about the 2.4T? I have combustion gas from cylinder 3 and have approximately 212k miles on the engine. it is bone stock low pressure turbo. do those commonly have cylinder cracks form? engine was turned off when it overheated once. now it will run all day if you disconnect cyl 3 coil plug and injector plug.
@@robbiewilson157 It's rare with the 2.4 block because of the thicker cylinder walls but it can happen.
What was it? If u overheat the 2.4t the head will warp.been there three times 2 different engines....but one thing I also had was a friggin new felpro head gasket fail 6 months after the job and started burning coolant ....white tailpipe smoke..
Your procedure for this is the best one on YT. How about doing a vid for the same thing on a dual VVT white block volvo engine.
Thanks! I would love to, but no such opportunity has presented itself yet. But as soon as it does, im on it . /Mattias
Discovered watching MOTOCARNUT's video the clue about turning the hub counterclockwise first about 4 teeth before mark before turning clockwise to 1&1/2 before helped me. But I followed most all your other steps. Thanks!!
I find myself in the position that I need to rebuild my 2.5L turbo engine in my ‘06 XC70 due to pcv failure leaving me a lot of metal in my oil filter. Being that you built your engine what did you find as a good resource for the instructions you’re reading in your video?
the pulley in front of the crankshaft gear has a hole with a steel sleeve insert it is at 12:00 when the timing marks on the camshafts align with the timing marks on the cover. is that hole an accurate mark alternative ? i can't make out the timing marks on the oil pump gear and i have tried so many ways of breaking loose the 30mm nut with no results at all .i wouldn't even need to take it off if i didn't need to see the timing marks behind it
turning the exhaust camshaft so the slot lines up with the slot in the intake camshaft so the tool will fit . will this also help to the verify timing is correct?
👍👍👍
Hi there, is the timing proces for the B5244T3 engine with exhaust VVT the same as your B5254T? And can i use both VVT's (spring or not spring loaded).
Greets Robert
Any update on the written instructions?
Actually, there are at least two different tensioners that were used on these engines based on their serial number and one tensions clockwise and the other is counterclockwise. Part number T43173 tensions clockwise and part number T43139 tensions counterclockwise. T43173 is Engine No. 3188689 & After and it tensions clockwise and part number T43139 is for Engine No. 3188688 & Before. People also need to know that the procedure is quite a bit different for the engines that use the VVT on the intake and exhaust.
Nice video, if u install a new vvt does it matters how it should be installed? I mean like there 4 holes, should they match the holes in the vvt or it doesnt matters?
I’m a bit lost on my Volvo my vvt hub doesn’t have tension is that normal I just got a new one from the dealer still the same no tension and I’m getting p0014 code for exhaust side timing
Did the volvos80 2.0t vvt give the same p0014 code error?
Hello., what is the difference between the volvo s, v 40 b4204s and b4204t motors, and is it possible to replace the b4204T with a b4204s motor that has broken from another volvo ???
Thank you 😉
Hi.
I love your project and your videos. You really explain things in an understandable way.
I just replaced timingbelt on a B5254T engine and when I took the old belt of, I noticed that there was no tension on the VVT-wheel. If I moved it, it sat where I released it. I then put the new belt on and lined everything up and started the engine, and it runs fine.
What is your opinion on the VVT? Is it ok or do I need to replace it?
Your VVT is probably not a spring-loaded model .
What happened there between 11:46 and 11:47 ??? Alot has changed there in just a split of a second. Explain please?
Здравствуйте., какая разница между моторов volvo s,v 40 b4204s и b4204т, и можно ли поставить вместо b4204T какторый поломался с другого volvo мотор b4204s???
Спасибо 😉
Bra jobbat. tur motorn är i ett motorstativ det underlättar
nice vid. while you're in there, don't forget to change the oil seals.. also recommend making your own cam locking tool (if you have the possibility to do so).
Really helpful video, one question though. After you tension it and rotate engine, should cam locking tool fit on the back side or just refer to the marks on the cover and sprockets? In my case marks align but exhaust cam is off by 2 cogs on the locking tool
PLEASE HELP
Its only the marks at the front that will matter. Exhaust vill be slightly off in the back of the engine.
THANK YOU 🙏
Hi Sir, I missed some parts of the video since part 1. What transmission you are going to couple with this T5 engine. Are you going to use Volvo's 960 automatic transmissions? WIll you adapter plate? Thanks before for your reply
Hi! I will be using a Volvo M90 transmission from a Volvo S90 (1998)
Very nice video and nice work. Im doing this to my S80 2.4T with VVT on exhaust only. I´ve done everything the same but after i turn the engine over 2 times again to TDC all 3 marks aline but den exhaust camshaft doesnt aline on the other side, where you put the tool inside.
I´ve set timing belt while the VVT bottoms out on the right side/clockwise and the marks are matching. It is spring loaded like yours.
Is this normal or did i do something wrong?
Cheers
It should be slitghtly off so it sounds about right 👍
I was able to properly install timing belt with correct tension. I turned crank clockwise, then noticed the exhaust VVT CAM had play, it actually popped forward and back in... kept cranking then no more play, another quarter crank and I could pull the VVT cam in and out 1/8 inch (3mm) by hand. Could it be a worn bearing? What would cause the lateral play?
I know that the vvt can get worn out and cause lateral play, but exactly how to fix the vvt hub play is out of my current knowledge. I do believe you have to buy a new unit.
ruclips.net/video/eWRjFumpzkA/видео.html
Yes you have to buy a new hub......
It's a piston inside that wears excessively
Very nice! Where can I find the instruction you are reading from and also, is there a instruction version with double vvts?
Thanks! Unfortunately, the instructions in its original form is copyrighted and I cannot link it here, and I did not find it linked online anywhere. Its is however available in the Volvo VIDA service program. I got help from a friend who found the program online somewhere in order to get a printout. Sorry I can't help you more than that. But yes It does cover the dual vvt as well //Backman
Great Video explanation..... 👍
Thanks! 🙂
I did the same style as you did with cat install. Mine is double vvt, however after torque tight on the center and plug on both, none of them has spring action. Still free rotation around the cam. Could those hubs need to be replaced??
Not cat, I mean vvt install. I didn’t know how to edit this.
Some vvts are spring loaded and some are not. I think all of the dual vvts or cvvt is allways non spring loaded. But I have 0 experience with those and dont know alot about them. I will make a video on that type once i get one by the garage 👍
Is the b5234t9 exhaust vvt the same? Not sure which have preloaded hubs and which don't.
Me neither, i think there are about 80 variants of this engine type with different setups on the cams.
Saludos disculpen que no entiendo su idioma sin embargo vaje un traductor y a través de los suptitulos los entiendo, estoy buscando un video que muestre la cincronizacion de un motor 6 cilindros de volvo Cx60 t6 diésel año 2013, xda se los agradeceré y muchas bendiciones para todos su equipo
So when you mention the “low-quality” tool, what about the cheap knock-off makes it a pain? Does it not align easily? *I just bought one of the eBay ones for $50, but I believe the Volvo one is in the $150-200 range.
Its probably fine for use now and then but it was just the feel of it that was a bit of a letdown. Threads are weak, and the fitment of the parts is not pleasant, but yes it will get the job done.
Tjena! Försöker överraska farsan, som är mekaniker, men jag själv har noll koll. Har fastnat vid biten där du fäster tillbaka remmen. Fjädringen för min VVT vill inte dra tillbaks alls, jag misstänker att det inte är helt normalt och undrar om det finns något man kan göra åt det?
Vad jag har fått läst mig till är att det är fjädrande VVT på äldre modeller. Dock är det fortfarande lite dimmigt för mig. Detta är en 850 tror jag? Jag har en V70 2000 sugis med VVT på insuget som inte är fjädrande. Är i full gång med att försöka få dit den på rätt sätt.
Am I the only one that finds these instructions extremely confusing?
...if you set everything in the most-forward position ( cog slots and internal hub rotation ) approximately one tooth before and tighten everything ,how are you moving that hub one extra toothy if it has already been set to be 1 tooth off and the hub rotated to the max clockwise position ?..... I just don't get it . Please clarify
Hello
why do you have to turn it a quarter clockwise and then back? is the markings not ok when you turn it clockwise the first time good enough i don't understand that part
It is to relieve the tension created by the spring in the VVT hub.
Intressanta grejer ifrån Pela. Är det nått man använder för att göra en 100% nollning av motorn? Är det bara för när man ska installera ny VVT? Du råkar inte ha en ECU borttagar verktyg också?
Joo det skulle man kunna säga. Bara för att säkerställa att kam och vev står rätt och att du kan jobba med dom utan att dom rör sig. Men vid ett vanligt kamremsbyte tycker jag att det är lite overkill. Bättre att bara köra en egen märkning på kamdreven mot tex kåpan medans veven står på noll och se till att det ser lika dant ut efter byte av remmen.
Ecu borttagarverktyg är inget jag känner till tyvärr :)
Jag har ju ett sånt VVT drev på nya motorn jag köpte. Kommer sätta på ny kamrem när jag ändå har den på stativ men jag behöver alltså inte göra nån inställning på VVT drevet om jag bara ska byta remmen?
Jag har aldrig använt kamlåsning vid ett kamremsbyte i alla fall. Men frågar man volvo så har dom säkerligen ett 100% vattentätt tillvägagångssätt för alla möjliga omständigheter. Så det bästa jag kan råda dig till är att dubbelkolla i vida 👍
Hi I am from France and I saw your video that I just liked it. I have same engine but when I try to remove the 30 mm nut of crankshaft pulley I turned counter clockwise and ear 3 times a click like something broke inside, I didn't have the tool to lock the crankshaft. It's my first time doing Volvo timing belt and now my engine is out of timing do you think I broked something , and can I reset timing like before. No I try to start but nothing's happen. My car was running perfectly and smoothly before that.
Thank you for reply
To answer your question, I don't know.
All that I can tell you is that these engines are interference engines and if the timing is off too much the piston will hit the valves. And since the valves are installed at an angle they will bend and the valve stems will probably break.
If the valves are broke you will not have any compression in the engine. And since you have already tried to start the engine, I would suggest doing a compression test on all the cylinders. If that is OK, then you can reset the timing correctly. If you don't have any compression, then you have more problems than I can help you with in the comments section.
@@BackmansGarage so I can do test compression with engine out of timing you mean?
@@Adam19832 If you have tried to start the engine with the timing off the damage will already have been done. But yes, if you can set the timing right then do that first.
@@BackmansGarage thank you for your help will try
hey i like to paint the belt and count teeth on new and paint it make better to see in car
3:38 - no links in description :)
Its on the way 😄
Helou. How much on moment?
Although I understand your ideology, I'm not comfortable with the entire engine block being painted red along with the a/c compressor, alternator and power steering pump being painted black. Furthermore, it looks like a good time to replace the cam seals while you're in there.
True
I did exactly same way as you explained. Car didn't start. Is turning but no start. Any idea what can be?
Im assuming the car started before you changed the belt and in that case check the cam trigger and wheel so that is all in the right place. Get some fault codes read out of the ecu and see if the signal is missing or implaussible.
Thx
Is it apply to B4204T3 vvt camshaft settings...last time i changed the timing belt the check engine light illuminates...
It best to check får that engine specifically since i have never worked on one of those.
Who told you to turn the engine backwards ?? I've done these engines multiple times and NEVER rotated the engine backwards? What was the reason for that?
I thought that was a little wierd at first too and i guss i have never read the instructions closely enough to notice that it says to overturn it and reverse it. Volvo original instructions.
But after thinking about it for a while I realized it's to remove the tension on the vvt hub spring, I guess the camshaft rides just hard enough to load the spring when approaching TDC to put tension on the vvt. You can hear the vvt snap when the tension in the vvt let's go when the cam rides over the load. I don't think that this is as apparent when the vvt is filled with oil.
It's probably more of a safety thing rater than something that is necessary to do for proper function/timing of the vvt/cam transmission. But if you don't overturn the engine the cam locking tool may suddently snap under the force of the vvt hub spring, at least that's my guesstimation.
I'm thinking now that I re read your original reply that mine simply wasn't spring loaded...I do recall it spun freely without tension on both my v70 and xc 70 .maybe that's the differenceI dunno....thanks anyway for explaining.

What transmission are you going to use???
I will use the M90 transmission from the Volvo S90
Do you know of this similar 2,5T swap done in a Volvo Amazon?
I have seen it done, but not on a series on RUclips unfortunately. Would be a reallly nice project 👍
@@BackmansGarage Found one - Sadly a LS swap but very nice US Amazon! ruclips.net/video/_EiyyjrSjCU/видео.html
what do you use for a an instruction manual? i have a v50 2.4
The instructions come from a program called vida that the volvo technichians used in the volvo workshops. Should be avalible for download after some googeling since its a obsolete program, somewhere 2014/2015 the vida program became cloud based insted of "application" based.
@@BackmansGarage ty mate
What is special tool name for hold the crank shaft
I have a link in the description to the tool in the video 👍I don't really know the specific word for the tool 😄
It says in Volvo VIDA that you need to kinda center the 3 bolts on the exhaust side, they can't be too much on either side, because you know it needs to be able to adjust itself.
And you CAN NOT let go of the tension on the CVVT untill you have torqued down bothe the exhaust and intake cams .
Btw I did it the Volvo way alone ;p it's just 5nm of force to hold down the cvvt ,just kinda lean on it with the right arm while adjusting the intake then do the rest with ur left :p
Anywho nice video, this one is the most accurate to what you need to do.
Nvm this way works just as well,
Done this 4 times in a row now trying to get a best possible timing.
Turned out i had a shitty cvvt-hub and the wrong vvt-actuator. Cause I got 25 to 30 ° timing over advanced, now after I changed the vvt-actuator and cleaned the vvt-hub I got 8-15° , so I gotta buy a new hub.
Hard sometimes when you second guess your own work.
Nice video btw.
Where do I find the instructions??? Thanks!
Volvo Vida instructions. You need to get a computer program for it. Sometimes its avalible throu ebay and other such sites.
@@BackmansGarage thanks!
So if the lines (grooves) at the back from the camshaft and the valve cover align it means there on time?? Doing this w/o the special tools
Basically. The parts number on the exhaust cam should be on top and on the intake cam on the bottom.
You will however have a hard time torqeing down the vvt bolt without some sort of cam lock in place.
how do I do that with my engine inside my car???
Same same but different.
Crank pulley / harmonic balancer ....same thing.
has anyone seen the VVT pulley get some axial slop and fail to properly engage the seal?
Yes, Its the most common failure
7:21 The tool you have, can you write me the measurements from instagram
After replacing it has a P0015 code now... Help...😢
Did you turn the engine over about a quarter of a turn before backing it up again ?
Har ingen återfjädring i min hub , men funktionen är densamma. Volvo v70 2.4t 2001. Huben är helt ny ? Bra eller anus ?
Det är ingen fjädring i dom nyare från -00.

Can this be done with the engine in car?
Might be a little bit more challenging, but absolutely 👍
Where did you get the directions to replace the hub?

@@BackmansGarage where do you find it on the vida software? I am having trouble locating it
I have a friend who has it installed. But I've heard that you can get one on ebay with the obd scanner.
@@BackmansGarage I have the software. I found it and I will try it today. I did a test on it and it seemed to be a little off. Can I still drive it this way?
I wouldn't drive anything if it seems a little off. Are u sure you have the spring loaded vvt and not some of the other variants?
Where can I find that plug for the intake side?

Hello
This is the same procedure as the 2,4t engine right?
I cant say since I have never done the VVT on a 2,4t. I think that the procedure is different on the dual cvvt systems. //Backman
Seriously though, where would you order an oil pump from?
I would order one from Volvo, or the same brand from another supplyer.
is this the same as vtec or am i dumb
No vtec is something different. They operate kind of like a vvt but also alter the valve lift and it's a much more complicated system. Also vtec is only found on Honda engines.
it does alter the valve timing but the vtec does it a different way.
dont see any marks on cam wheels ow u find te rigt spot
They are on there, but like i said. They are very subtile and hard to see, especially when the engine is in the car.
So i see it doese’t look tha hard i olny have 1 year of experients has a mechanic and i understand beacuse i warched twice this video
I have a question for most Swedish / English Bilingual people. Are you able to read Swedish text or Shop manuals and on the fly translate that into English in your mind and spit out Verbal English? I can speak 2 languages but I don't think I ever tried reading another language and then translating to English on the fly. That must take a bit of practice and brain power.
Just a random thought I had as I noticed that some languages are backwards to Forwards to English. So there as you read , it is not word for word translation like machine text translators via a table. But active syntax translation.
Do any of you find that hard or does it come naturally?
Reason why I am curious is that I can't tell of the bat Backman's is Swedish. In fact the accent sounds almost British in a way. Still really cool! No doubt about that. But Dang, this is like English Professor levels or an Actor thespian level of verbage. E.G. , it sounds like he's right down the street from the Plaid Pantry.
I cant speak for everyone but I find translations to be easy from Swe to Eng and vice versa but it can have something to do with the fact that i grew up in the US.
You instagram?
