Or better still find the maker of the belt supplied to Volvo and buy it from them.

Volvo do NOT make timing belts. Goodyear, Gates, Dayco, Continental, Optibelt and I'm sure there are loads more....

Boost pressure sensor uses vacuum and/or positive pressure to signal the ECM.

Dirty contact or corrosion in the plug could cause the low voltage signal, as could a perished vacuum hose. Loss of...

Get it tight enough and you can shift anything.

Try loosening the other four and then driving around half a mile or so before jacking the wheel up again and hammering the socket on. That's loose...

Felt a tinge of sadness as the V70 was driven away yesterday. The new one ain't got 170bhp but gets down the road OK.Acres of glass! Panoramic windscreen and roof. Already checked with Axa that it's...

Buy the genuine cabin filter cos it's the only one that fits.

-> MY '04 (YV1SW7***4*******) & Euro 3. 10w40 Semi.

MY '05 -> (YV1SW7***5*******) & Euro 4. Longlife. SLX.

Euro 4 cars have a DPF which regenerates using engine oil.

THE WRONG OIL WILL...

Yeah, whatever.

You have a nice day too . . .

My guess would be the voice coil of the bass speaker is damaged. Polly just worn out but the only option is to replace the speaker.

IMHO you've bought the wrong size tyres old bean.

S60 & V70 with factory Nebulas used 235s.

Worry not, you can rectify it in about 12 months time when they've all worn out . . .

The guy who wrote the book on this, for me, is Tom.

His S60 'T5R' is beautiful, subtle and well thought out.

JMHO but gold cars should have silver wheels - perfect but silver. Just sayin'

Three days on from the software and it had its first 'proper' test in rush hour traffic.

No missed shifts and all symptoms gone.

I'm still expecting to be disappointed . . .

That's the whole point. I didn't change the valve body!

I just told them I'd changed it. Makes no difference anyway. The garage don't have to offer any kind of warranty, they just blanked the 'box...

I'd get a hinge anyway. They're very fragile and don't cost a lot.

BTW this is one part that I would buy from the stealer. Not because 'genuine' parts are superior quality - like I said they're...

V70 D5SE '03. AW55-50SN box, not that it matters. Auto & geartronic are the same box with different wiring looms.

BTW

I'm still NOT happy with Volvo - you should've heard the phone call I got the other night when they asked me, now that I'd finished paying for the damn thing, if I was interested in chopping...

I have ranted en passim at length recently about Volvo's inability to fix their auto boxes, a problem of their own making due to inadequate oil capacity and a totally deficient/non-existant...

Just a selection of rants - sorry - recent posts on the subject.







Sorry for the hijack.

Faced with the looming prospect of having the transmission die I can share your pain.

Weep.

Or at least prepare to . . .

it is a 2007 MY car but you wouldn't want it, Dave.

It's an auto . . .

Poetic justice if the visibility was greater than 100 yards!

The WORST and most misused 'innovation' ever! Bar none!

In 30 years driving and over half a million miles driven I can't think of a...

SRSLY

One's the right fluid and the other isn't. :)

Don't worry. It's just another 'quirky' Volvo-ism.

You know. Like the throttle body that 'We've never had a problem' with, the DIM that can't be fitted second hand (that's a hoot, that one! 700...

ATF-U is the correct fluid.

Don't bother buying it from Volvo, that's just an exercise in spending money.

Carlube is as good as any 'From all good car shops and most crap ones!'

Get about...

Its a common thing, alarm siren module has died at a guess.

Thank your lucky stars the siren failed, when mine went we'd just driven back from central France - about 18 hrs - and I ended up...
