It's the one that sits on top of engine that usually gets replaced with a poly bush does that help ?

try www.partsforvolvosonline.com they are in the region of £300 IIRC.

on my v70 when I stipped the strut down there was a little cross type nut which was difficult to shift (volvo special tool required). I ended up with an adjustable spanner on it which worked a...

hi mate

The turbo off a 2.5 will not be the right one, you will be down on power. Volvo never made a 2.5 t5 until later than that.

The one you are after is a 16t I think its called, if you can...

If he had no antifreeze in it and it froze there is a chance he has knackered the water pump. That's the first thing I would be checking.

I have this exact same problem at the mo but I left my oil cap off and went for a drive. And yes I do know I'm a pleb lol

I only did mine last week and managed to do it all from the top. If u remove the top two bolts you can rotate the recirc to get to the bottom bolt. Do the reverse when fitting the blanking plate....

There is also the snap on man lee. Get all the tools you need and pay him on the drip! Good luck with the trial I hope it all goes well matey.

My car recently had a similar problem mate after I jet washed the engine. I ended up replacing coil, rotor arm, plugs, dizzy and it finally turned out to be the leads. Once swapped it runs like a...

I have since removed the sound deadening from under my bonet, it made sense as I thought I would hear the engine better and warm the washer jets quicker. Oh and save weight too!

as above, leave the ignition switched on for 1 hour in the first position, the radio should be switched on so it says off lol (that sounds weird), after 1 hour it will say code on the front and you...

I recently replaced my stereo and as suggested if it says offyou need to leave the ignition is pos 1 for an hour. It should then say code which is when you enter the code. If u don't know the code...

I have no connections to anyone on here but if map isn't copyright protected and someone has the same product then it's fair game in my opinion. Also if someone is selling it cheaper then the...
