Sweet. Will pop down methinks once the bank balance allows it! Does a decent air filter do anything on a diesel?

Is hamish still about? HLM tuning still the best bet? Don't think nat or hamish will remember me...it's been about 7 years.

So after a looking stint away from volvos and having a fad on early 90's hondas mixed with §§§§ repmobiles for work, I've now persuaded the powers that be to drop monies on a 62 plate 2.0T D4.

As...

touchscreen dvd/tv/freeview double din unit, satnav linked up to the video input, ipod in aux, vibe front top components, blaupunkt lower front components, blaupunkt rear components, pro-sound 12"...

keep looking matey..i have a 1.8 s40 and there's nowt for them anywhere unless you start messing with cams and big stuff. but then mine's an lpg, so i get pretty good mileage!

I want your wheels.

And your engine.

IT's not fair mavv..you used to be on corsa sport right? i'm sure your corsa was pretty fast IIRC. Always beating me aren't you?!

no worries!:)

id love to say original volvo stuff, but they failed to release any nice 4-stud's for the s40. Apart from some nice 17's...but ive only seen them twice..?

jbl gto 6 channel is a good bet. I can get them for about £140. 570 watt per channel, good quality and has a built-in crossover.

bet the gear box has 'popped'. which means the clip or weld has broken, pushing the gears to the left. can you put it into gear without it stalling? or hear anything when in gear?

I got the most immense sound from what i did - Take a look

STAGE 1

Preliminaries and removal of airbox

sure its not just a warped brake disk? or something simple?

Take the alloy off, look at the back of the alloy (as in, the inside which conncets to the hub). There will be a recess where the o-rings go, there usually white plastic things. If you cant see them,...

Its a "no brand" one. But at the mo mines broke. IT decided last night to die on me and go all black and white with a fuzzy screen.

Tried to contact seller last night but no response so far. He...

NOt that i know of. Id say just buy an iso for an 850, then go to the scrappys and cut the end off an s40. Unless you can find one?

I had a 605 in mine. It's ok i guess..Then i ripped it out and put in a dvd touchscreen! IT wont play mp3's and doesn't really like copied cd's. Oh and the phone mute tends to screw up as well.

All the previous owners done is swap the speaker wires into an iso block. Just take them out and fit them back into the "empty" block (one with the yellow wire only). Does the HU turn on at all? If...

Think i've just been sick in the mouth.

clutch release bearing. If its only doing it when the clutch is engaged then i would have thought it was that. Unless you'vechipped a few teeth in the box? which would be unlucky!

you do realise pretty much whatever head unit you buy, it'll have a tele-mute line on it? shouldn't be a problem connecting a sony handset to a bluetooth password set at 0000?

I have that crazy...

s40!! ordered the s80 adapter..so it says anyway. it should fit. if it doesnt..ill make it.

Ordered the tv aerial as well today. Hardcore gmtv on the way to work in the morning. Next up is a...

possibly faulty transistor pack?
