Filany got her washed up. And took some pics :) http://static1.album.ee/files/761/0/large_19025113_cS6W.jpg http://static1.album.ee/files/761/0/large_19025123_74n7.jpg http://static1.album.ee/files/761/0/large_19025137_aOEw.jpg http://static1.album.ee/files/761/0/large_19025147_vUbv.jpg http://stati...

next oil the inside of the sill. It keeps the rust from forming inside and the thing then last a long long time.

mine is just 2 weeks away

do the exhaust yourself Cheapest option. Also the turbo I think is restrictive on the exhaust side.

Soon going to get her out of her winter hideout to get her MOT ready. Exhaust needs some repairs.

I haven't also been stoped because of that. The norm by the police is that if you are enough visable to others, then they don't care. I drive around all day long with my DRL's. I have used pup-ups, and been pulled over, for driving with my "fog" lights on. But they understud that they are DRL's and ...

there is a cut @ 1bar pressure. Richmod runs the car @ 1 bar with the fuelcut dissabled. And the stock turbo is a T2

this little snow and you are complaining all ready? This is the stuff Volvo is made to drive in all day long. We got -17 C in here, with as much snow. Have driven in much worse. But well, you don't get that much snow every winter. All I have is a suggestion to you. Get a snow showel, but it your car...

useless on a turbo engine, have tried one, stock housing and filter is way better. There is no performance in that. It might work on an N/A engine a bit, but not on a turbo.

you can always use the old washer. File it level, then heat up the washer so its golden red color. And drop it in a cup of cold water. This makes copper so soft that you can bentit with your hand. Then screw it in place. Then it seals everything up. It takes its strength back in about 1-2 months max.

I'll kill you, HUMAN!

on bad roads like in here, the original shock tend to bottom out. Just change them to a bit stiffer and thats it. The ride is harsh after that but it does stick to the ground.

its just started. She is still @ 1000 rpm

DaKyy what was it in Finland?

I'd go B234FT with a M90 box, but hell, who can afford one to be made

has anyone tryed to but a volvo whiteblock under hood of a 480?

check the exhaust hangers in the rear. As the pipes go over a metal beam in the back. Mine is hitting there a little some times ( I have 2,5" one also :p
