It does seem a short time for the alternator belt, age is also a factor. At least you can see it and determine when to replace it unlike the timing belt. Volvo sell two special tools, one needed and one nice to have. The needed one is a special puller to get the bottom pulley off of the crankshaft and the nice one is fitted to the bottom pulley to stop the engine rotating. Instead you can remove the starter motor and jamb something in there to stop the flywheel rotating, a bit crude but it will work. IMO it is worth replacing the tensioner, idle pulley and water pump when doing the belt replacement. Volvo sell a kit excluding the water pump. Denis Aventura A54-113 Cleopatra marina -Greece
