Booked in for the 18th July
Prob because I foolishly believed i could fix it myself, i did have a go a few times trying to find it and failed.
This volvo passion makes you do/think crazy things
Will keep you posted. ...
Hi Lee,
Sorry didn't mean to offend, but I can see how my comment got on the wrong side of you and other members.
I guess where I was coming from is that I want help to diagnose and fix the...
Oh yeh, I've not pressure tested the coolent system yet, I forgot you mentioned that before ..
But entertain me a little, could the turbo or coolent lines running to the turbo leak coolent into...
Current boost pressure is 33 PSI (so it says on the Torque app on my phone which hooks up to obd2 wifi connector).
Not sure if that is high or low? Feels low
I have pressure tested all 5 cylinders and sniffer tested the coolent expension tank and all looks fine. Solid 13bar pressure and no exhaust gases in the coolent.
So, I can only believe that...
Thanks Morgan - that was helpful
I found a very large crack in the charge pipe after I posted, which no doubt is contributing to boost leakage. The current MAF reading is 255 g/s, I'm sure when I...
Hi all,
My T506 is down on a little power.
The exhaust is blowing and as you accelerate harder it seems like the exhaust is getting over loaded, trying to force things out.
It does sound...
if anyone is in the Birmingham area with a cooling system pressure tester I could borrower, id be happy to bribe you with beer

sniffer test was solid blue, no change. There no exhaust gases in coolent.
compression test without any oil dropped into spark plugs hole was 6 bar for all 5...

Hi,
I currently have another thread open "Mysterious Coolent Leak", but rather then corrupt that with talk of engine rebuilds I thought I'd start this one. I'm probably getting ahead of my self...

I have isolated it a little...
only when the car is upto temperature does the coolent burn off out the exhaust (you can...
Still no luck in finding it.
Good point about the bars leak being in the system even though I have changed the coolent. This is not what I'm experiencing tho..
I cant help but think it's...
When cold, I put in 50 50 coolent and water started car and when it got to temperature the coolent low stop engine light came on, so losing it pretty fast
Hi,
I have a mysterious coolent leak only my T5 06.
There are no visible leaks.
If I put in bars leak or anything simular it will cure it, but having just drained the coolent and topped it...
Hi Dave,
Thanks for replying.
982819 looks like the part but I will check when I'm back home.
It's only two bolts which are screwed horizontally from the oil pan to the gear box which I...
Hi,
Long shot.... but any one know of the part number for the oil sump to gear box bolts (x2) on a V70 2006 T5.
Volvo parts department cant find them on their system.
Thanks
Sanj
Hi have a similar problem on my 850 and it's due to a dodgy ignition switch. Once the car has started I need to turn the key back slightly to engage all the electrics, if I don't do this the abs...
I just broke a bolt on my oil pan (v70 t5 2006)... after tightening it too much, I had a oil leak.
Came across this thread, thanks for the write up - it seems like the instructions would apply to...
Good Job. I am just starting on that road. My p2 t5 is being declared sorn.... First thing to fix is an oil leak, but I think that's due overfilling, let's see.
Enjoy your motor dude
