wow, for that price it may be best to get an actual strut brace. Out of curiosity, does anyone know if a brace that fits a v70 2000 - 2007 would also fit my s60 (52 plate)?

Sorry to hijack the thread, but does anyone know if you can get these 'QBM' strut bar conversion kits anywhere in the UK?
Would it be best to pay more and go for a proper front strut bar? Or are...
Sorry, I should have updated this post to say what happened.
Got the car jump started and the battery lasted a week until it died again. During this time I have been checking the power using a...
Just managed to get some jump leads and after a while we got it started.
Cant figure out why they battery light indicator was showing green even though the symptoms are of a very low/dead...
Hi
s60 2.0T has been working fine. Was sat in car for 5mins with ignition on whilst letting my phone charge via 12v socket. Got a message on dashboard saying something along the lines of 'warning...
Oops!
New S60 gets off to a good start...
Just a heads up with those of you who have McGuard locking wheel nuts and key (key has collar on).
My collar snapped on the locking nut which were stuck solid (probably due to over-tightening)...
the front (501) sidelights only work on passesnger side and not drivers side (same as rear).
The car has popped bulbs in the past but now the bulbs are fine but just not lighting up - on drivers...
Contacts look clean (im looking at the unit that 'unclicks' and pulls out of the rear cluster.)
No rust and condition of bulbs is good. The filaments are in place but still dont work.
Cant see...
UPDATE:
Right, it seems that the sidelights for both the front and rear drivers side dont want to work. Checked and swapped the bulbs but to no avail so the problem is not the bulb(s).
The...
Hi all.
I remember reading something on here about people having problems with the front sidelights and blowing bulbs. Ive gone through 2 or 3 sets of front sidelights in the past year and looking...
Ahh..I see what you mean. Not too sure about getting LED sidelights now, as I prefer the stock sidelights during the day but at night LED looks far better.
I've like the fact the Volvo has DRLs as...
Hey fandango, any chance of posting some pics of how the LED sidelights look in daylight? Just want to see how noticable they are compare to stock.
Thanks mate.
I guess its because the LEDs are white light and the light is less noticable during daylight than the standard 'yellow' bulbs.
So are you keeping your fog lights standard? Just thought matching...
Just about to get a set of parking sidelight LEDs and was wondering if it might be better to go for the 9 LED light rather than the 5 LED?
I want to get the right balance and keep them as...
hey fandango, could I ask which bulb type power & temp you chose when ordering your HID kit from this guy?

Also, if the bulbs...
Yes I seem to have realised this is the case most of the time. But the problem is the 'tapping'/'hitting' gets the light working again until it starts becoming more frequent and then the bulb...
I'm thinking of maybe doing the same but I'm put off by a few things
1 - my s60 always seems to blow its bulbs and have a bulb out. This can range from main beam to sidelight to rear cluster...
Just to update;
Decided to take it to Dave at DPA Notts after the new Turbo and he put in Valvoline 5w30 fully synth. Its been running fine however it has been using some oil and needs topping up...

Hi all,
Well the story goes...bought s60 2.0T a while back and had timing belt changed by DPA in Notts.
When picking the car up the yellow engine management light comes on after driving for 10...
