Can you tell the difference between a v70 r engine and a t5 engine by looking at it, also what miles should timing belt be done and miles the second time.

Timing belt is every 70 or 80k.

The code on the side of the cambelt cover will read B5234T3 or B5234T4

I believe the T3 is the standard S70 whilst the T4 is the R.

Cheers guys, how much to get belt changed roughly ?

Mechanically both engines are the same. Only the sticker tells them apart, signifying a different turbo. V70R 2WD auto is identical to a T5 manual and auto. Even the VIN code shows that the cars are the same.
