Hi guys as you may know already my clocks no longer register miles, the speedo and rev counter work and so does the computer. What could be wrong? Is it the clocks or a sensor on the gearbox?

Yeah buddy that's me lol cheers ;-)

Gearbox coming tonight ready for new one to go in tomorrow hopefully

I'm not to sure matey :-(

Hi mate it's always wise to while the pistons are out, if money is limited you can always do a compression test before you strip the engine to see the condition of them.

It's alive! Rewired and now running, time for another oil change I think ;-)

Lol I had 4 replies within 30mins of advertising lol sorry I never replied but was waiting for the first person to get back as it was sold pretty much sold within 1 reply lol glad I never replied now...

Ok first sale fell through which to be honest has done me a favour as it's made me realise I love this car lol

Back in the garage today to fit a radiator sourced from my man with the Akita lol...

Looks really nice mate, think I'm fairly young to have an 850 t5 ESTATE! Lol which my mates took the piss out until they were wooped by it! Lol wise choice in car you won't regret it lol keep us...

Haha to mr2 should be about 700fpt so could try lol

Ok guys due to lack of funds and a long hard reality check the car could possibly be up for sale, needs a gearbox as second gear is pretty much gone, it's there but you gotta put it in firm and...

Guys what's the most a 15g will push? Boost wise?

That sounds awesome!

I do hope so! The 2 T3/T4 turbo should help me see the 500bhp mark. Saying that the volvo is close to 300bhp and it half the size!

Hi mate I think I had that fault! Mine was lambda sensor played havoc with power at low revs! And mpg was fubar!

Not a problem as I've bought a lock and key :-) I'll just get it painted.

I keep wanting to make the 850 faster and better too! But then I remember..... No! 1 project at a time lol

Cheers James! Erm £15 posted????

Cheers Tomkat but I put my double din in my MR ;-)

I hope so lol the twin turbos will finish it of nicely, try to keep the T5 going and do this isn't doing any wonders for my bank balance lol

Yeah the Volvo was meant to be my run around till the MR2 is back. Using a 750 BMW engine matched with a 2010 Audi gearbox ;-) thinking I could keep the Volvo to toe the mr2 to track days lol

I say "one day for sale" as I should get rid of it as it's impractical for me but for some unknown reason...... I love the damned thing! I say damned also cause as some of you may know I've had lots...

Ok as soon as I turn the ignition on the alarm and immobiliser go off????

Wicked! This is what I need! Will try when the fob arrives! Although does it matter that the alarm goes off when the ignition is turned on??? Been trying to bypass the immobiliser with no success :-(
