I've replaced the rad now, So it's just a case of seeing if that was the cause of my oily water.
Few questions though,
1. The clips that hold the oil hoses in place, two of them (bottonm 2) weren't brilliant. If they fail obviously this could cause major failure. They are holding the hoses in place okay and I've also cable tied them on tight. Would you still replace them?
2. Is there a certain way of refilling the rad with water, Or just fill the system through the header tank? I did this on a Citroen ZX and melted the head gasket. Apparently the rads too low to just fill and you have to make an extension funnel, To make sure the rear of the engine's filled...bloody french cars.
3. Why did Volvo make it like a Rubix cube getting the 3 rads and mounting plates lined up? LOL.
