Putting a second hand motor in my freelander v6 . Snapped timing belt.

wow,,
was the Belt overdue for replacement?

My D2 belt had bits of the V's missing everywhere when I replaced it,,

Hasn't the D2 got a chain??

Hasn't the D2 got a chain??
It does , Pedro is confusing timing belt with serpentine belt.

That's the confusing part. Manuel says 70,000 miles so 110 k should be belt mine had only done 75k I believe the car had low K's because it sat for a while.if the tension bearing dries out all will go wrong and the belts apparently deteriate after 5 years.
