Volvo 480 Club Europe

Forgot to add mileage 40k!

History and explanation of cause of sale ( as I would rather keep ) as follows- I bought this car a little over a year ago it had been sat 7 years in a private drive. After swapping all wheels ( I kept my previous 480ES for parts ) the front light clusters, one headlamp motor and running the rust of...

If it was an air leak wouldn't it be juddering just the same whilst in reverse?

Yes Jim, in the Borders. Not too far from yourself.

Thank you Ade for you lengthy and detailed reply. Sadly my machanical knowledge is not much more than basic however I do have a Haynes to keep me right and have sorted a few things myself. The engine recently had a core plug that had rusted through replaced and I am wondering if this has anything to...

A 1991 1.7 Turbo Auto. I have two problems although they may be connected, engine on idle will surge ( hunting ) and car has started juddering when accelerating from a slow speed or from stopping at for example a roundabout. Seems to run fine when cold. Could this be cold star sensor? The car has re...

Any seatbelt arms left and if not perchance the wee rollers that always bloody pop out? Thanking you

Does anyone have a driveshaft oil seal ( Offside) and if not does anyone know where I can get one, bit of a major oil leak. Thank you

Thanks Van, no joy yet so might just do that.

Does anyone have a spare nozzle as avoiding a lot of police spot check spots at the mo! Thank you.

Very sad to hear of a wee 480 being scrapped. However seems sadder to not utilse the parts. I am looking for a front screen wash nozzle as been gluing mine in every few weeks. Also passenger fog lamp glass, if no one has claimed the seat belt extension arms would love those. Thank you. Might be a fe...

Thanks for that. It's the glass that's broken and the car is Jan 92.

Sorry I'm in the Scottish Borders

Looking for - passenger side front fog light. Passenger side rear mud flap. Yet again it's passenger side ! A front seat belt extension arm. Perhaps if anyone is close enough a new drivers side door card. Thanks very much. R.e. Passenger door. I have now used papier mâché to sort my drivers door poc...
