    Top engine mount, MAF and thermostat

    Guys,
    Had my car to Volvo dealers the other day to see why ETS and EML where lit on dash, and why fans kept coming on when i turned it off.
    They suspect the fan issue is due to faulty thermostat and ETS and EML light due to MAF sensor being faulty.
    My top engine mount is shot too, are these an easy enough job to do myself, i'm fairly competent when it comes to cars. does the original bush just push out or is it glued in? i've got a poly bush to replace it.
    also, i notice you can buy thermostat housings fairly cheap, is it advised to replace these when changing thermostat?
    Replacing the MAF seems a no-brainer to do, just got to save the pennies to get one, £275 from Rufe!
    oh, the cars a '99 V70 T5

    Thanks

    I guess the car is most likely an ME7 engine being a 99. If it not ME7, I have a good MAF available removed from a 98 pre-me7 C70 T5.

    VXR Injectors : ME7 Manifold : TWR Throttle Body : Blackbeast IC : AEM Progressive WI : Ferrita 3" Downpipe
