Volvo 480 Club Europe

They're not vicious at all
It's just when I reach 90 and it starts making this high pitched buzz sound that fluctuates in volume (Like a sin wave)

It's coming from the rear of the car so I'm guessing it is the exhaust, I'll still have a goose at the engine mounts though
Cheers guys ^_^

OK! Got the car back from the garage today. Had the front and middle exhaust sections replaced, 'cos they was dicked. All is fine now, 'cept there's something vibrating that wasn't vibrating before and it's doing my fucking nut in... Still, "no vibrations" and "480" hardly ever appear in the same se...

This 480 has been going round and round ebay parts listing for weeks

I feel like buying it, just to put it out of its misery...

Ok... so there are footsteps leading up to the door, but the snow on the car is perfect
Hell, even if the footsteps were coming /away/ from the car it'd be weird.

...What the hell?

Blah! So, my car is all running fine, I come off a roundabout and rev it a little high in 3rd, and it goes "Pkt!" Now it sounds like a lawnmower, putting away whenever I rev, (sounds fine at idle) It does have a split in the middle exhaust, but it sounds more like it's coming from the engine, which ...

I meant pics of where it goes on the car

Ohp, I've got it now...
A rather overkill example - right?

Any pics around to show which bit you're referring to?
(I'm not that clued up on it all yet)

Howdy I'd just finished replacing the bulb in my car's ('89 ES) headlight this morning , and when I opened my (unlocked) car, the horn sounded (continuous honk). I never got in the car, but shut the door So uh, it did it again when I opened it the 2nd time >.> Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone ...

I was driving home the other day with a range rover behind me, and we stopped at some lights and he actually dipped his headlights down to his sidelights while we waited the most curteous range rover driver /ever/ - of course, he's still a douchebag for driving a range rover in a suit on his own, wi...

My left bulb blew the other day so I'm replacing it over the weekend...

Anyways, as much as I hate driving at cars with halogens, I was wondering how they look on the 480, if anyone has put any in yet? (and are they better to drive with?)

Sooo... yeah ;D

No.
The video.

Howday Not sure if anyone has posted about this yet, so I will... Fifth Gear review of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnrOFlNfzc0 I hate fifth gear, and I hate him for some of his comments... it sure looks tasty, and 60mph in just over 6 seconds? That's goin' some, that Moved to Wastegate - volv...

My handbrake has been playing up for a while now... about 3 weeks ago I took it down to F1-Garages (After being recommended there by ATS, who are usually my first choice) Anyway, they tightened the calipers or somesuch and the handbrake was sorted for a bit Aaaand then it all went tits up again, so ...

Since I've started driving on the A50, I've been able to let rip a bit About a month ago, I noticed my car vibrated at around 90mph (the dash, everything) and it sounded rather horrid... if I went up to 100, it settled out OK and everything But then about a week ago I noticed it had started doing it...

Nah, I don't fancy doing that :/

Well I finally got round to getting the side panel things up, to discover that there were no cables under there. (Only the strip-type ones, and I figured they go through for the lights and such) Sooo, it looks like I'm gonna have to put my own wires in from the dash following the same line that the ...

The same happened to my mum a few years back, some inept gypo reversed into us while traffic lights were on red. False deets, 'can't remember the insurance company', etc etc.
'course, fucked us over right royal :/

What's the deal with these Momos? I've noticed a few of you have them...

That is, what's so special about them?

Neat! I hope I get one under my window
