Replace Seatbelt Volvo S40 2005 Sign up here! Search this forum this category all forums for All words Any words Whole Phrase (search options) Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Car Troubleshooting KaraB New User Jun 20, 2012, 3:14 PM Post #1 of 5 (3095 views) Replace Seatbelt Volvo S40 2005 Sign In Hi there, My lovely dog decided to chew through the drivers' side seatbelt of my 2005 Volvo S40. It is just the belt itself that is damaged, and I was hoping someone might be able to tell me what my best options would be for replacement. Is it possible to just replace the belt and not the whole system? Am I likely going to be able to replace the seat belt myself with the airbags and the seatbelt alarm system, or is this something that really needs to be done by a mechanic? Any suggestions on the best place to get replacement parts? Looking forward to hearing any suggestions that any of you may have! Thanks in advance.

You're only option would be to order a complete belt assembly from the dealer in the color you need and pray it is still available. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

I'm sure it isn't cheap because it has a explosive seat belt tensioner that is controlled by the SIR system incorporated with it. You might be able to find one in the salvage yard, if you can find one that hasn't gone off, but when it comes to safety I suggest getting a new one from the dealer. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

Several places told me that some seat belts come with a life time warranty. Maybe in your country. In the US they don't warranty dog damage and nothing is guaranteed for life from the manufacturer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
