Overview
This is a comprehensive timing system rebuild kit for Volvo and Land Rover 3.2L petrol engines—specifically engineered for the S60, S80, V70, XC70, XC90, and Freelander 2 / LR2. The timing chain, tensioner, and guide arms work as an integrated system to maintain precise valve timing and engine synchronization.
Over time, timing chains stretch and tensioners wear, leading to slack, noise, and eventual performance loss. This Partsmost kit replaces all three components to OE specifications, restoring proper chain tension and engine harmony. Each part is manufactured to strict tolerances and tested for durability.
Installation requires engine work and technical skill—professional labour is strongly recommended. Once fitted, the system is backed by a 12-month warranty, giving you confidence in long-term reliability and peace of mind on every journey.
