When I had a wrong type of coil installed, the rev counter didn't work. However the speedo did. And those two don't work from the same signal.

15" is also common size on these cars. There is a lot of different 15" original alloys for 480. I've got 16" wheels, they fit quite easily. Even 17" is an option and I've seen a 480 with 18" wheels :D But go with 15", you'll get decent size tires in there aswell. http://www.volvo-480-europe.org/volv...

Funny thing is, while it is legal to lower your car - it is illegal to make the panhard rod adjustable.

Did it fix the problem?

I had a similar problem with my old pug, although the brakelights were on all the time - even if I took the key out and locked the car :D

Does the car have a towbar? -> I'm thinking it might be the connector/s at the rear?

But yeah, sound like an earthing problem.

I'm currently pondering what clutch I should fit to the -89 B18FT. It probably has the 200mm clutch at the moment, but will it slip? I'm going to put a new one in anyway so does the 215mm fit on it or do I need the newer flywheel? And slip-wise, which one of these two clutch sizes is better? Is bigg...
