hello everyone, i am having probs stopping oil coming out of the return pipe at the block end when i boot my s60 t5 and race others, i dont have any probs if i keep it gentle and dont race her around but when i dump my foot down for more than 15/20 mins on the motorway i get the smoke pour out the wheel arch when i stop, have had it up in the air and volvo told me its the flat band O ring at the bottom, i got one, which is different to the part i took out but volvo tech said its the replacement for the part in question. seems ok some days but i still had some smoke the other day after the new one was fitted....... starting to become a real pain in the arse as i cant race the focus ST's when they fly up behind me....... has anyone else had an oil leak prob from that part that didnt seem to want to go away before !!!!!!!!
