This piggin car has got something against me!
Two weeks ago it needed new tyres, last week a new maf, this week the exhaust fell off and for the weekend boost has dropped!
I look after it, spend...
Thanks for the replies, £150 would suit me better at the moment, also if i went for the ferrita or a BSR i would have to tell my insurance company wouldn't I?
Any links would be helpful
The tail pipe has fallen off! Rusted thru, i have tried to have a look underneath but it is cold and wet out there, is there a joint after the silencer?
Any recomendations on a new one, cash is a...
Thanks for the info, i ended up buying one of ebay, about £35 delivered, new. Had to save some cash as the car has cost me thousands this year. All fitted and working a treat, it might not last as...
Hi All.
My 1998 V70R needs a new MAF, no way am i paying £250 for a volvo / Bosch one, seen some very cheap ones on ebay, what part number should mine be? Are the ebay ones any good, anybody got...
thanks for the info, yes crush washers are there and ok, i always fit the plugs on a cold engine also and it has happened when it was garage serviced so i am sure my torque wrench is not the prob.

You should all think yourselves lucky, my wife drives my V70R most of the time and does the daily commute of 15 miles half bypass miles, she is lucky to see 17mpg, she doesnt use the A/C cos it dries...
Hi All.
My 1998 R has the white injectors, are these standard for the car?
Also i have a strange thing happening with my spark plugs, 1 & 2 slowly undue themselves, they are torqued up properly...
On holiday and have finaly got a bit of time to myself so thought i would think about the car and ask for a bit of advice.
My R has the standard front end lights, they look a bit tired and the...
That wAs me with the autobox probs, got thru 3 in just over a year. Problem is you never know the miles and driving style of the donor car. I got fed up with it and coughed up £1600 for a full recon,...
Thanks for the replies.
The lambda was on due to the missus putting in cheap petrol, she didnt tell me, it always comes on after cheap low octane fuel is put in.
I have removed the snow guard...
Hi Everybody.
I know this is going to start the debate off again on drilled air boxes but here goes.
My V70r had a drilled air box when i got it, it has been tuned with a BSR re-map and had some...
I had a drilled box on mine, was like it when I bought it. It was heavily drilled and did sound good but the heat soak was so bad it would stall if stuck in traffic say on a motorway after hoofing...
Check for a huge air leak, when I exploded my intercooler I got exactly the sAme, rough as a dog and proper black smoke.
Thanks, I will get a new oem as about £100 but wanted to fit it myself if poss, spent £2500 on the gearbox and suspension in the last month and getting pissed off with money pit. I have been told...
I have a water leak on the rad and need to stick in a new one. The car is an auto, is this an easy job bearing in mind the Air con, auto box oil cooler etc. If anybody has any info i would appreciate...
Yes, just the standard cooler, the oil upto a few weeks ago when i last checked was good, as it should have been as it has only been in 6 months since the last change, checked on the breakdown and...
Thanks for the info, once i get the codes which should be today i will give them a bell, i would be interested in any possible upgrades they can do to toughen it up a bit.
Many autos run...
Well, the R has eaten yet another box, its fourth! It was early this morning so i guess it wanted it for breakfast!
This weak box is really beginning to get me down. Since i had the last one...
Have a look at the wishbone bushes.
