Having owned my s60 2.0t auto for a few months now I've got a decent idea on the mpg it gets from different types of journeys. For stop start driving around town it manages about 25mpg, for the 10...

The thermistor required is a 10kohm NTC thermistor, you can get them from places like Maplin or Farnell (though maplin don't have any 10k in stock)

or some on ebay...

the bulbs are T5 wedge bulbs mate. they don't come with the bases but you can reuse the old bases by wrapping tape around the bulb and pulling it from the base. you'll find this a lot cheaper than...

Good work Ed, another victory for the persistent home mechanic! :beer: :B_thumb:

Cheers. So the sport refers to a bit of fake aluminium trim and possibly the rear wing.........thats classic lol

The ones we put on the S60 have done about 20k since and are still silent.

Food for thought: The pattern bearings we fitted had the same markings as OEM........................

My only thought here - I fitted a pattern wheel bearing once and it lasted 10k. I'd only fit gen Volvo again - just to avoid the expense of doing the job twice! Pattern parts work for some stuff...

Ed, i admire your optimism, but I reckon that was definitely second hand!!!

I've never been thrown anywhere (too fat)

A/T ECU is removed - Engine ECU cares not.

I see failure as not bothering in the first place. Trying to sort issues and not doing so is not failing in my opinion. At least you tried !!!

Post 63 :)

Ed, remember we tested my reasonably healthy (as it turns out), ETM in your car it we still encountered problems. I have a feeling the ETM is not therefore at fault and my money is still sitting...

Sticking to my guns like I always do has paid off, ebay have awarded me with a full refund and rightly so! The seller was messing me around and I had him by the bo***cks! :beer: :B_thumb:

Right, my turn now. I got after 11pm and was up for work at 4.30am today so this is the first chance I've had to give my verdict.

To me it seemed like a Boost problem, most likely the BCS or...

Good effort chaps.

HLM will get to the bottom of it at some cost. I'm offering my help at no cost and Ed and I won't do anything we're not 150% sure on I'll say that now. Not everybody wants to throw cash down the...

Perhaps the two of you can get together and build one good p2 out of the two you have :D

James, I'm sure you've probably checked and double checked this but it sounds to me like you have an air leak.
My P1 V70 T% ME7 was throwing similar problems to what you are having, i suspected a...

It`s the headlamp up and down adjuster motor malfunctioning. Move them where you have them adjusted to then disconnect the connector to it.

x3 10mm bolts to the turbo. treat these with respect. i striped one of mine. ended up removing the turbo so could tap it. it dont exactly the same next time i removed the down pipe. its now fitted...

He'd charge his usual.....half a can of warm beer lol
He does it for the love of the cars, I'm sure if you went down he'd look after you, as he has me.

Try a chap called Philip joy, I know him reasonably well. What he doesn't know isn't worth knowing. Kent cams go to him with there problems.

Joy engineering in bishops stortford, I won't give you...
