Replied.
Just though I'd mention i've got a pretty nearly brand new one for sale, it was in my C70 for about 2 months. Fits nicely in the glove box and definately in the boot, pm me if interested. Has...
Jeez Aeroresh, your car is on those ramps more than anything else :)
LOL took my breath away reading that :mischievo
My T5 was done at 160k I think thereabouts (310 not 280). Superb. Obviously, with new turbo, etm and the rest probably faster, but it dont do no harm if you look after it. After all the thrashing...
Its even more annoying on the German autobahn and realising that 135 is really as fast as your gonna get, wishing you never parted with the T5 RICA, wishing only for a 6 gear. Mind you, if it had...
Not being very clever at all but I wonder if that rattle noise I hear now and then (infrequently) could be something worn on the suspension. Its a weird noise, hard to explain, almost vibraty type...
Second Gathy, if only it had gear number 6 it would be a cracking car...
Gald you asked that, because my last set of tyres were pretty much the same, except for about 4mm difference from the inside to the outside, I thought it might be rubbing (Ive got 18" pegs on) but...
C70 T5 Manual with RICA was getting about 250 - 300 miles with average moderate driving most of the time (ish). In my new Volvo I get 600 :-) although the rate diesel is going up probably soon work...
Agreed, when I was raking through the brochure you could basically start with an S and end up with same specs as an SE plus more.
Mines the SE but has a lot more options on it, think the only...
Yeah you cant beat a bit of BP Ultimate. Prob why mines not so noisy on first start in the morning.
I've got the 18" Nebula's on my S60, looks a treat, cept you cannot put the car into full lock as they rub. This makes the turning circle even larger than standard.
I was going to suggest pollen filter, but too late, and already been tried. It did help me when i had that problem thouugh, only happened on auto and putting temp above 21 C
Yep, it sure is a quick car with that tuning box in and its diesel, its the way forward!!!
Without the tuning box though, its rather pants.
Yep, a little too much for my liking ;-)
Andy,
Is that the same box some ppl have in their Vectra's? It sounds like it, and it makes a helluva difference to my mates Veccie.
LOL, no idea sorry, but your comment made me laugh :-)
That confused me for a moment when I fitted my changer, it already had a something plugged into the CD DIN, although I be damned if I knew where the other end was.
Goes outside to check beside the...
How could I have forgotten playing football with the dog! That definately kept me enthusied for a while when I was down there.
Good luck with finishing off the work tomorrow.
Glad your okay. Since the other driver was uninsured hope you got the police involved or give him/her a good kicking!
See, that's what I thought, but people ive spoken to are sure its the clutch worn out.
Since its not slipping, I though it might just be missing some fluid for some reason or another.
Problem...
Sh*t Dave, glad your okay! The C70 really can take a beating, I think youve certainly proven that. She was a great car and I am sure you will miss her...
My girlfriend rolled her Ford Ka not so...
I use firefox and i can download it, then I use Nokia software to view it.
Ah okay, will investigate more, my back street garage guy dont kow much about Volvo's, he got qa quote from his supplier and they said £250 for the clutch kit apparantely one that a local force uses...
