thanks Martin. I'm going to the Tank Museum on Saturday,hope to see you there.

Having just upgraded from a fairly "iffy and mediocre" mechanical to a fairly top of the range electronic / stepper motor boost gauge, quite amazingly the boost has gone up from 6 to 14 psi.

I...

Don't know if this is any good to you, but there is a firm on ebay (in Poland) supplying for p2 V70 splitters a superb fit on mine. They may do something for your S60.

Just got back from a weekend away. Thanks for all of the replies chaps, I'll be doing that later on and I'll report back.

Sorry chaps I’m back again with more mundane questions. As you could possibly tell from my earlier post about the compressor, I’m a total newbie about all things turbo-istic. I know it’s a B5244T5...

Thanks for that Ettienne, only trouble is I haven't got a welder and couldn't weld to save my life.

Hi W D, yes there were two marks on top of the cam cover put on by Plod or other owner. It's VVT on both shafts, but don't understand what you mean by marking with reference to the solenoids. And...

Anybody can change the timing belt on a V70 T5 can't they? It's a piece of p**s isn't it?............Well I've managed to bugger it up.

I've just changed both belts, all the pulleys and the pump....

I haven't got my head totally round Vida/Dice yet. Does it do those kind of checks in the Diagnostics Tab?

Brian

I apologize if this question has been asked before. I've got an ex-Plod V70 T5, the front brakes fitted by Volvo Specialist Vehicles are (the standard Plod spec) XC90. They're massive....good.

Hi every one.

I've just read a post that mentioned resetting fault codes. Can anybody tell me how you do it? Is it that Vida/Dice can't program but can reset. Thanks for help.
