Volvo 480 Club Europe

I put some -40mm Intrax springs under my car and i must say, i love them. It is a lot firmer now, doesn't roll anymore like a boat while the comfort didn't suffer much really. i used a bit cheaper way of compressing the springs instead of a spring compressor, works great: http://i30.tinypic.com/keb4...

i can't find your pictures, can you post them here? i was at that meeting too btw

A little vid I got out of my crappy cell.

And the crappiest video ever award goes to... !

:p

damn i just can't get over 23.96 seconds

I think its normal really. I bought my 2.0 almost new and the fuel consumption when i'm driving 60km/h has always been (on a flat road with no wind) around 5 to 5.5 l / 100km according to my infocentre. or mine has the same problem since it came from the factory :p

I feel stupid now, lol

does anyone know a good and reasonably priced web shop for Volvo 480 parts? (I’m looking for some -40mm springs) don't know if i posted it here in the right subsection but i hope so

drive between 80 and 100 miles a week. probably see one about once a month if i'm lucky

When i was checking the fluids i got a call from someone so i ansered and after that i layed my fone somewhere on the engine, then i checked the oil and was happy that it didn't use a single drop of oil in the past 5000km and closed the bonnet, so i happily went to work the next day and when i got b...

I have only 1 car, my 480. Never had any problems with it (yet :P) but that's probably because of the low milage :P (it hit 55.555km 2 days ago :P, bought it with 34.000km from the owner of a Volvo dealership but had to sell it when they got kids and it turned out you can't put child seats in the re...

all what is said here is why we love it, it has character. It's something other then the ordinary. If it didn't had that this discussion wouldn't be here in the first place.

anyone spotted this T4 at the meet?

29.000 years ago?

did volvo run out of clay or something?

I had the same when replacing my cambelt 2 weeks ago. I don't think it really matters as the cambelt sprocket is wider than the cambelt itself.

The 4 step guide to screw up your 480! In stores now!

turtle wax your rims, saves you a lot of cleaning

Damn, thats

I like what he's got under the bonnet though (could be just a F7P, but if it's a F7R engine than it's quite fast )

I actually don't know the color code for the red on my car but mr Milosz knows i'm absolutely sure its a 95er, so it must be 235 red then

Well, that kinda sucks. What part of the exhaust is lower than the 1,7 version? What exactly is different about the 2.0 than an 1.7 or a turbo (wheelarches? suspension? exhaust?)?
