Codes were read a couple of weeks ago, can't remember what they were, not very useful I know. Lost my code reader a while ago, but a couple of mates have some. Wasn't really top priority at the time,...

Hey guys,

So managed to fracture an ankle on one foot and my metatarsals on the other. Obviously couldn't drive whilst they were healing about 2 months altogether, started it up a few times and...

Yeah you would think simples, but it wasn't the last time. Had a driveshaft split on me a few years ago and it was months before I got my money back, not entirely the AAs fault, partly the dealers...

Thanks, the dealer won't take direct payment and I got burnt pretty badly the last time I used it.

Got prices this morning and I think it will end up working out cheaper if I just go down the 2nd...

Lol more issues...

Driving home from work on the motorway when my A/C pump decides to seize up causing my aux belt to spontaneously combust and snap... Good times... :(

So anyways, going to...

Sounds about right... So around the cost of a further 2 second hand S60R's (if you could find two, sales getting pretty rare these days).

I am in kind of a similar position, self employed and do...

Yeah good call, the AA are pretty useful, it's great too, any car you sit in is covered for breakdown.

Wouldn't have expected their parts cover to cover you for the windscreen to be fair as it's...

Also got to thinking, maybe I might only need the one load resistor as like I said I got no errors running one halogen and one HID.

They come in pairs but worth a shot and might save me from...

Yeah nice, think I'll mount mine there too.

The bays are so cluttered in the s60s, really want to relocate some of the stuff in there if possible. Think I'll actually start with the factory airbox...

Yeah really don't want to do that. Would be the end of the car, still it would look much cleaner and remove hot resistors from the bay. Will prob go with your idea though.

Ended up returning both...

Thanks again for your help, you've been an absolute legend.

I did doubt your first post as I assumed these canbus kits had the resistors built in. Both kits did, the first kit I also added caps...

Ahh my heads ruined with this, made lots of other little tweaks so the car is sitting quite nice now. Just need my springs and bumper without the headlight wiper slots and it should at least look the...

Okay the issue is definitely down to the kit itself it seems. I think it's just cheap components. Looked like one of the better ebay kits tbh though.

Could anyone who has fitted a kit to their...

Cool guys well I'll have a little play about here and see what happens and I'll post my results in case anyone else has this issue. Might just be a cheap kit, works great though in terms of output.
...

I assume you guys had no issues then? Maybe I just got a bad kit. Quite a few threads online talking about similar issues to mine. All US spec models I think as it was on swedespeed. Hmm... I'm going...

Thanks any li ks for the type I need and what wire would I plug into?

Also is there PWM on an s60? Would that still not be an issue?

Hi folks,

Noob question again. Bought an HID kit off eBay for my 2001 S60 T5, they are 35W 6000k.

I know I should really have auto levelers and projectors, but did a road test and they aren't...

I don't necessarily have any intention of doing this, but would the T5 engine from an s60, lets say 2012 model fit into a P2 car?

I'm sure the answer is it's possible with money, but what would be...

Just an update, I hate it when you are searching the net and a thread goes cold before you figure out the solution.

Got the correct rods and ends installed and the car is now aligned perfectly,...

Thanks, yeah I initially thought it might have been the wishbone bushes, a bit of a testament to Volvo build quality they are actually all pretty good, not bad considering it must have been like this...

Thanks, probably just being lazy. Will have to get under the car today and have a look before I make a move. Just want to get it right, only have access to a ramp and alignment machine at certain...

Thanks, great info.

I suppose if there are only two options it should be fairly easy to deduce the correct type. Is there a quick way of telling what steering rack I have visually or by part...

Car in question is a 2001 S60 t5.

Just noticed a massive issue on the car, it's toe-in on both sides quite badly, +/-3 deg each side. The real issue is that the ends are adjusted as far as they...
