I think you should establish if its gearbox oil that s leaking first!! Could be engine oil. Thou it does look very clean. Tranny oil has a destinct smell as does gearbox oil. Is your car an auto? Use...

i have a very simular problem with my P1 V70, just today we have found the problem, my intercooler is cracked so i would suggest a pressure test on your intake side of things and it was throwing up...

The rettling noise is the camera bouncing off the A-piller - aoplogies :D

right, hold on... I'lk go get a vid of mine which has been calibrated...

Mine only goes to "0" if i squeeze the load pedal a bit to create positive vacuum, normal driving it stays negative and thats with a AEM digital gauge and it definatly not poo lol :)

No, it should come out of vacuum and at least stay at 0 until boost reaches a positive pressure. If your just pootling around off boost it shouldn't hardly move off 0. If it does, I'd say your gauge...

it can relate to any evolution of the engine, software, turbo, power level etc

You cannot adjust the idle on a P2 ME7.1 motronic unless you remap.

If I were you I would take the car to an Indy and have them check live readings when it's running let's not waste anymore time...

Sounds about right to me, vacuum on idle is spot on and yes it will be in vacuum when crusing I'm guessing yours is not mapped as the boost comes in late but all looks good.

Doesn't sound right mate, boost should start before 2000 rpm, though you will get vacuum at idle.I'd check the pipework doesn't have any leaks.;)

yes mate, you can ;)

No mate, you need the one that goes from the inlet manifold to the recirc valve.

Looks like a tidy job there Mitch. The cigerette lighter is a good one to splice into for the power supply. Save...

LOL, 300quid will cover the beer....

Now, to the left of the pic (I appreciate it's upside down) you'll see a big bolt - that's the drain plug. I would give everything a really good clean, make...

Won't be the srs warning.
Ok, follow closely...

Key position I,
Hold the reset and within 2 seconds, turn to position II.
Keep holding the reset for a few seconds and release.
That should do...

If the pcv is blocked and left to get on with it, it can blow your RMS (rear main seal) - crank seal. That's a gearbox and flywheel off job.
To check the pcv, go for a drive for 15-20 minutes, pull...

Had you checked it warm or cold? Are you consistent when you check?
I believe that if your engine is hot the levels will be higher than when stone cold.
If you check directly after running the oil...

James's car is a 2.3 and ME7 (let's not forget the ME7 bit as they are supposed to be smoother so aggression is kept to a minimum ;))
My engine is in tip-top shape and is dull before 2300 rpm,...

here is the data of MTE and SHARK PERFORMANCE REMAPS side by side.

Well... I just phoned them (cos it's been all bloody day)
They've been out for a test drive in her and they're waiting for her to cool down so they can check the fluid levels :)
...

Just don't dump 4L of coolant on it tho - put the laptop somewhere safe and don't confuse it with a washing-up bowl lol.

Hi

Ok, so I've been out and changed the radiator coolant with some lovely fresh stuff from Volvo. At less than £10 for 2 litres it was cheaper than Halfords stuff. For those who know how to do...

Mr Peachey, I'm afraid we have some bad news, the 'Big Sweed' passed away early this afternoon.....

Just disconnect the battery before removing your wheel, that way you won't get an airbag error.

I swapped the wheel in my v70 for one out of an s80 without any problems.

If you do trigger a...
