A fairly accurate way to see if it's the turbo oil seals is to let it idle for around five minutes then 'blip' the throttle with someone watching the exhaust.
Blue smoke when this happens is a...

Might be worth looking at the "high pressure" oil line. It attaches to the turbo with a banjo connector:

Mine's leaking...

That's the one alright!

Does anyone know if these can be replaced? Think mine are on the way out and can only find replacements listed for older models. Mines a late '96 btw.
Cheers

Nice motor Marty. Well wear.

BTW did you ever own SAZ 7265 855R ??

Badum-tish! I asked for that didn't I?
I brought it to a garage yesterday and they said the alignment cannot be done on the rear!
I was hoping it wasn't the outer delta link bush as iirc that's a...

Ok here's an odd problem I've just noticed on my car:

I had the o/s/r wheel off last night and noticed that it's scrubbing the inner arch approxomately from 9 o'clock to 2 o'clock..if you get me....

Thanks guys. What cost are white injectors roughly?
Was considering the £150 remap but have to keep an eye on costs.
The replacement engine arrived from Salvo this morning and the car needs new...

I've just bought a 16G turbo from another member on here (cheers Russell) and was wondering about setting it up on my 850r auto. The auto uses a 15G with "overboost" on kickdown. Do I meed to do...

Yep I love the more defined sound (That's what the Mrs was told!) Produced by the PowerFlex bushing!
The trick installing these is to compress them slightly with a Jubilee clip when fitting. It...

Honestly don't bother repairing the engine!
Mine's had a big end knock for >3k miles!
Cheapest option is a good nick "long bare" engine i.e. one with no ancilliaries/turbo etc.
You'd pick up a...

Don't think the op's symptoms stem from a borked top mount. The usual sign is a "thunk" when you let out the clutch/ reverse etc.



For the massive reduction in ball-ache quotient I've always...

Hi,
You could try contact NADS on here I think he has my old car: an '02 V70 P2 for sale.
It was a smashing car, geartronic, heated leather interior, split climate control and a RICA 310 remap....

Hi TC,
it's quite possible that it's fooling something somewhere. The higher the wattage bulb the lower the resistance but higher the current so maybe something somewhere is getting confused.
Or...

Silver T5......nope. Red 855R!
Seeing as you're local might be just easier to repair it and hope for the best!

The vibration is usually the abs self testing. Usually happens around 15mph ish.
Where abouts are you located?
John, sent you pm

I've heard that they were utter pish too from a few mates who run Jap stuff.
How sad is the banner on the home page??
Kinda says it all ;

I'd say there are three real options for you: 1. Leave as standard, 2. Blank standard and fit something like a DV26, 3. Fit a "high performance recirculating i.e non atmospheric, dump valve like...

Hi and welcome. I'm not 100% sure but it may be an ETM issue, use search on here to help.
It might be a good idea to get the codes read too as it may shed some light on the situation.

You might be able to pick up the missing bits from Salvo or flea bay.

That looks like the fixed half of a factory Volvo detachable tow hitch, I'd almost swear it.
My old 855 had a factory fit detachable and it looked very similar to that.

Hi Pete, I do agree that this is not something that should be used as a permanent set up.
However I never really noticed any significant stall in terms of reduced performance but as I said I only...

If all above fails check the cam position and flywheel sensor too.

Hope this helps.
This is the relay and connections. Excuse the drawing skills!
The connection diagram is supposed to be looking at the female sockets on the connector with the relay removed.
Don,t...

I'll definitely second that.
They do sound cool with none though I bet someone will say that is more likely to f up the turbo.
