Might be ok, my neighbour does mine, he's got a 854 t5 manual, so like seeing them on the road, he'd never do anything dodgy though, a good fair inspector who knows about the rubbing wheels
Tick, tock....
There's a few v70 in the local breaker if you need much
[QUOTE=Ettienne;745305]There's a few v70 in the local breaker if you need much[/QUOTE] Probably be another one in there soon lol
Good luck mate these old volvo's are good tho when it comes to mot time
I've got first dibs on the ecu :)
[QUOTE=M-R-P;745307]Probably be another one in there soon lol[/QUOTE] Yours finally going then? :D
Hate mot time, just had mine done last week, must say it seems worse when you have only had the car a few days as dont know what will be wrong.
Let us know mate, you never know it may sail through.
[QUOTE=stribo;745310]Yours finally going then? :D[/QUOTE] not a chance :D
Only 2 pages of failures, and a section of advisories, looks like I'm going to be busy.
Two pages of failures?? oh dear.....lol
[QUOTE=stephenevans99;745334]Two pages of failures?? oh dear.....lol[/QUOTE] Rachel's just sent a photo over, not bad at all, needs new headlights, I have spare headlights, needs new front struts, I have spare front struts, needs a new back box, got a spare one, needs new rear brakes, got spare discs, just needs new pads, shoes lower arm, and track rod end, all in all quite pleased, the main issue is an oil leak, keeping my fingers crossed it's not the RMS.
Certainly not the end of the world then....sounds like a weekends worth of graft. Rear main seal is the achilles....hopefully it'll be something else.
Yeah, will be checking the turbo oil return seal, and cam seal, hopefully it's one of them.
Check the dipstick tube and oil filter housing too.
[QUOTE=M-R-P;745341]Check the dipstick tube and oil filter housing too.[/QUOTE] Will do, though it has a proper oil filter ;) will make sure it's done up properly.
Sounds a bit but if you have most of the parts it's a start.
Could be front main seal behind crank pulley
