Well this year has been a bit of a write off (or maybe it hasn't depending on how you tackled it).

Lets hope 2021 is going to be better than 2020, where we will be able to visit our families and...

I was surprised to find out just how cheap the rear bumper trims are from Volvo. All 3 parts for a little under £100.
Takes 5 minutes to remove old trim using a Boning tool (no need to remove rear...

Day at Tim William yesterday. Now done.

Yesterday - Oil change (bin that std 0-30 crap the dealers put in - death these things!), now on Gulf Race 5w-40 and will be...

Sorted the misfire. Just a coil pack :)

Lambda light has now gone off.

Fitted a new expansion tank to solve the sinking float issue.

All good!!! for the moment........

The other thing would be is the limited supply of aftermarket springs and shocks for the AWD suspension.

Another good day until rain stopped play.

I managed to get the 4 mounting plates welded...

Hi guys,

not posted in a LONG time! Sold my S70 2.5T couple years ago, was a great car (S908 RBE)....anyone here got it?

I bought a 2008 S40 2.0D R Design SE Sport (needed the economy!), also a...

And it's still going strong :)

Will not be going crazy (mild tune and something like IPD nothing extreme). It just need waking up a bit. No rush and if and when it get done will be step by step, just something like the IPD or...

Spot on, plenty planned just need funds! Have Pegs and S60R bumper to fit - I would like to go 400+ though aware upgraded internals required. Did stage 0 prior to map and a pipercross element , best...

Hi all, seems appropriate my first post is a positive one!

Recently installed the S1 BSR map on my 2003 V70 T5, I was very sceptical having read lots of slightly negative posts on other forums but...

Thanks for the suggestions. The code reader I had at home the other day at can't do the live readings, hence why only going off the codes.

Anyway, I've now tried a different (known good) front...

The first thing you'll want to do is a full stage zero ( plenty of posts on here and other forums). Once your confident the car is running tip top with fresh fluids & and renewed ignition components...

I believe you have some experience of this issue Martin :) , I also seem to remember you have a video of the solution.

Nothing major to report, just enjoying the car.

Last week the car went to PTA Valeting for a couple of days for a full interior/exterior/engine bay detail and Williams ceramic coat. ££££ty phone...

Hinges? Plural? I was surprised to find one intact, have you seen many? I expected it to be akin to finding an alarm siren with battery still in a scrapper!

I wasn't being ultra careful when I...

If you are one of the "money no object" types who only use Volvo parts, look away now or forever be disgusted!

The problem:
Plastic teeth on the filler flap hinge break off/wear away so the...

This note will probably apply to any 5-button key, not just P2 ones.
