I have done this. What a ballache of a job!
It would be just my luck that one would snap as I torqued it up. :scared:
Job done! Was not looking forward to doing it but was a lot easier than expected.
Just waiting for some new driveshaft bolts from the dealer to arrive on Monday and I'm finished.
...
Yep, agreed!
Got a cracked OSfront reluctor ring on my V70. I assume Volvo will want to sell me a complete driveshaft, so what can I do?
Can I buy just the ring, if so who do you recommend?
Secondly, is it a...
Happy days Dave!! Glad you are sorted. Start saving your pennies for a genuine Bosch or Piezo MAF though, don't think those cheapy MAFs last too long!
Exactly the same reason my local indie has given RICA the boot
I got caught in the wrong gear in a dice with a new Fiesta ST. Came down a dual carriage sliproad in 3rd instead of second and he was gone! Quick little buggers they are. Caught up with him just as...
Where abouts in Norfolk are you?
Gaz made bespoke suspension for my old Mk2 Astra GTE 16V racing car. Good bits of kit and reasonably priced too.
Are you looking at upgrading your headlight units, or just the bulbs?
I have just bought from HID4U. 55w dipped and the guaranteed error free starters. And they actually are error free as well! Not...
No, ran it for a day then did it again.
Yep Did the above 3 times. Nice and green now.
How cheap? It was 15 quid a litre at Volvo........
Used the big syringe method. Got through a bottle and a quarter of new fluid before it was clean. Was trying to put up pics but photobucket is being an arse
Done a PAS fluid flush. Problem solved! Glad about that bearing in mind the cost of a steering rack...
Old fluid was black and gloopy. Definately needed changing.
Hello mate. welcome to the forum BTW!
You can reset all codes, do live readings and diagnostics and alter a few settings but you cannot do software upgrades or alterations unless you subscribe to...
Reckon Harvey could be right with unmetered air.
Get yourself a smoke test done. There can be unmetered air getting in the system at a thousand different places and it will take you ages to stumble...
Hello mate,
I changed the direction of the one nearest the MAF, not the one under the fuel injection rail. That's where they were on my engine anyway.
When you take them off, check that they...
I had this problem for a while. When you lock the car, do the flashers flash once? If not, the alarm has not set.
Mine turned out to be the bonnet not fully clicking shut. I pressed the bonnet down...
I suppose more of the fluid would come out using this method, but I would be worried about knackering the pump. It would be just my luck!
Main beam and dipped are separate bulbs. Main is halogen and dipped is HID. The dipped motors up when you put the main beam on and down when you turn main beam off.
I have these on my V70 and am...
Cheers Stephen. I reckon that is probably the easiest way. Will give it a go
I have seen a few methods on Youtube. Big syringe and suck it out. Undo pump return pipe and turn on engine so fluid pumps out (seems a bit risky to me) and there was mention of a drain plug on the...
Just fitted 55W HID's to the wifes 2008 C70. They are pretty amazing, but the standard halogen Volvo items were dreadful, and as we live in the countryside, she does actually need them! Car has...
