If you use a screwdriver, you'll mark the dash/switch! Use a plastic boning tool.

Had the privilege attending the VolvoDrive meet in the Netherlands last weekend, a short but amazing trip accompanied by a few good friends from VolvoTuning.
The event is in it's second year and...
Well, I've finally started this project. Matilda (1992 240SE estate) is in the newly extended man-cave ready to have her heart transplant.
I've got a B5234T3 to go in her and have provisionally...
Bloody hell... Hello stranger!
They're pretty underpowered, but passable with a manual 'box. (Father in law has one)
With an auto, they're pretty slow. (Test drove one but couldn't stand it)...
:wallbash:
but to rub salt into the wounds, it could even power itself when I went to view and the garage then fitted a brand new alternator and battery......lucky me
Not long after I got it back from Tim, I noticed a small drip of fluid under the car, plus the air con had packed up again. I took it to my local specialist (Just Volvo, highly recommended), and he...
Final attempt. iPad correct way up this time. 31329
I will have a DMF from my 99 C70 coming available soon. It is virtually new. I also have a 2nd hand clutch that will work with it which you can have FOC.
They are dual mass, but can be converted to single mass.
Looks good, Fella :)
What size spacers did you use in the end?
I had the original system on so needed to cut it off, or you would have to swing the rear axle down. But pretty standard exhaust swap!! Bit louder then the standard exhaust at idle, but when you give...
This week the R got a new cat back, after pestering Don for the last month about Ferrita exhausts he told me he had them in stock. So ordered it up and Don said he would ship overnight. Then about 3...
5w30 is absolutely fine, just don't use the Volvo (Now recommended) 0W30.
After owning Volvos for about 30yrs Volvo seemed to only recommend 5W 30 oil when they started using the VVT system ?
Before that they only said 10W 40 so i always used the thicker oil. Of course...
If it clears pretty quickly after being laid up for a while without actually driving it , it sounds very like valve stem seals, the oil that has seeped in while it was standing idle will give you a...
Does sound like stem seals to me
OP, may I suggest that you inspect the PCV hose at the Intake pipe end. Check to make sure that the Intake hose PCV nipple is not blocked and/or that there is not excessive accumulation of oil in...
I'm not looking for an argument, just pointing out that a map and a catback (filters do diddly-squat in reality) won't make 300bhp on that engine. The 16t will be way over its limits well before then...
Cheers.
That's what made me decide to keep this one tbh.
It does need some bodywork though.
The rear arches have been filled to death and the back end of the cills are very poorly, but that's...
So, been a while.
Truth be told, I found myself in a bit of a pickle.
Too many projects and had to face reality that I can't do them all.
The two that were facing the chop were either this or...
Think it's the tyres more than anything.
235/45/18 is a big arsed tyre with a huge side wall.
Like I said earlier, they work out at around an inch bigger in diameter than your 19s with 235/35s.
...
I have C70 GT with the Dolby Pro Logic & rear sub woofers behind the seat. I thought the same thing when I bought mine, considering everyone was praising the stereo in this car. So I decided to do...
Hmm...
That WILL be close.
Only one way to find out!
Edit:
Just done the calcs and a 235/35/19 is just over an inch smaller in diameter than a 235/45/18.
I reckon they'll bolt on alright....
