Does anyone here know or can make a downpipe + decat? S70 T5 ME7 so I believe it is an angle flanged.
Can't see none off of the self!
Well I'm not really on a budget as the car is just off the road now and I'm just collecting bits as I go along. My ideal finished set up would be 19T, injector upgrade, downpipe, decat and exhaust,...
Basically what I needed to hear, thanks! A scrape of the knuckles won't kill me. I don't know if I'm being over cautious but will it not be safe to drive after bolting it straight on because fueling,...
My S70 T5 is coming off the road for a while so I can get it to where I want it without running it. I plan on doing the full works such an exhaust, decat, intercooler, etc.
I do have hands on...
Hey guys, thanks for the replies!
Picked up this gem for my girlfriend. Volvo 340 1.4 DL in grey, 3 door, 50,000 miles with a 12 month MOT with no advisories. Can't spot any rust and the 3 owners...
Yes that's the one mate, I've tried that and garage has tried that and seems to be the source!
It's not your usual release bearing noise though, it's very loud and noticeable . I've been told by a garage it's the CV boot on the drivers side (where the noise is coming from). Also makes the...
Very hard to describe it. You accelerate and it's fine, come off the pedal and it will tap/knock on down revs but if you put the clutch down, it stops? I'm assuming it's clutch/gear box related?!...
Thank you mate! I am tempted to sell my T5 (S70 T5 manual in green if anyone's interested) and get something a bit older. Like I say, my girlfriend doesn't want it for drifting where as me......
Cheers mate! Have noticed some do suffer from rust which is a shame. Not really looking for a cheap one but don't want too expensive either if you know what I mean?! Thanks for the heads up though,...
Can any body here help me on a Volvo 340? Reliabilty, economy, etc? Ideally looking for a 1.4 for running costs. It is my girlfriend who wants one and wants one for her first car. Very cheap for her...
Is this worth a shout to sort the O2 problems?...
thanks guys! Forgot to mention mine is an S70 T5 ME7! Want a downpipe but not with a sports cat, it's annoying me trying to find one!
As the title says guys. I've been cautious with custom exhausts since I had a horrendous one made up on one of my cars which on a dyno reduced my power... Anything you guys recommend?
Unfortunately these aren't my photos of the car :smirk:
Mine is ME7, it's a 98er but I've got over it now! Mine is a manual mate :D
I want mine without a spoiler! Love the look without it.
Well I've finally managed to find the effort to upload some photos of my S70 T5!

I would've thought the car would've gone into limp mode though at least? My Colt CZT used to kill itself if a vacuum was off
Don't want to sound like a numpty but I had a very close inspection last night. I saw the vacuum hose from the actuator was actually floating about not connected to anything. I've connected it to...
Thanks guys, don't know if i'll be fitting this due to mine being an ME7. I'm not all there with Volvos yet and I am a young noobie.
I'm just the very anxious type and making sure I have bought the right car! I'm in the process of stage 0 as we speak!
Got you! What sort mods would you need to get mapped in then? Have I made a bad choice with an ME7?
Cheers mate! What makes it cost more?!
Just double checked that, reason for posting this. Ahh that's not good :( Am I limited tuning wise at all? Heard they don't like decats, BOVs, etc.
