    Precaution. Car has done 141K and the consensus appears to be that it should be changed around 100K.

    Just wish I could find some detailed info on a catch can system to see what's involved.

    Rear abs sensor

    Hi folks. I wonder if anyone knows the cheapest place in the UK to get a rear abs sensor for a 1997 V70 T5.
    So far everywhere I've looked seems to be £100+.
    Hopoing I can find it a little cheaper.

    It's not the heater matrix as I changed that a few months ago, and, as stribo said, it wouldn't smell fo screenwash.

    Is there anything in the screenwash system that might leak into the footwell?
