    What chewed up my timing belt?

    I have a 2001 V70XC, and I was replacing the VVT solenoid when I noticed the timing belt was all chewed up, as shown in the pictures.

    Forgot to mention that I'm running the VM on Parallels on a MacBook Pro. Not sure if that is part of the problem.

    The DICE connects to the Mac via a USB 3 dongle.
