Looking good there bud, reminds me I need to get my paintwork sorted as it looks a mess.
The AWD grip is quite exciting :D
You can't beat a bit of shiny olive paintwork, she's looking fantastic Rob
Having seen this in the flesh at the weekend, I have to agree 100%!!
Even joked if Rob goes to a meet, he'll need to roll the car over on its side to show off his hard work!
Excellent work...
great work Rob, you'll have to keep the tread depths even front and back now to stop the awd wanting to kill itself, unless you where to fit a haldex unit somehow........???? Steve should soon have a...

Rob I have used the part no. of the box you put up and done some checking and found a foreign supplier with one for sale which they list the engine code for and checking back with the info Harvey put...
It would have been nice if they'd made all the other labels that clear on what the final drive is.
The cross reference comes back as 8252344, seems to only be linked with the D5244T4 in the XC70 so probably the M66E XC box with the 4.53:1 final drive
Looks like the M66 box with the 4.00 fd...
Having done some digging, the replacement PN for 9482432 is 8252153. Seems to be matched with with engine codes D5244T4/T5 2006-2009. Can't find any info on ratios though, looking at the image above...
Going by this info .

I look at it this way, people who don't know Volvos as well as us, now think we drive about in potentially 700bhp cars with just a few simple mods :)
Am I the only one who wasn't overly impressed with the program?
It was a good watch, but just disappointed in the lack of details on the build and the lack of the original engine used.
I wouldn't normally comment on this as we all know T5's aren't usually renowned for their economy, and that's not why we buy them, however someone may be mildly interested...

Good fun getting the rear doorcards off whilst the doors are locked shut eh!?! Just had to do it on the old man's 850 to replace the n/s lock unit. Pain in the derriere. Glad you got it sorted...
Just cover the postage mate I won't be able to get it posted till the end of next week though as I'm away until then. I'll check the garage in a minute mate to make sure it's what you want
Oblark I haven't got an olive green handle but I have got a ph1 V70 turquoise drivers door handle with 2 keys if you need it
