Hey I checked skandix, they are on the site but unavailable and no longer stocked it seems. Does anybody know if a Renault gt5 sensor would work or not? When I took mine out no oil came out but there was a smidge on the end of it. The sensor is located just at the starter motor I checked on here and...

Hey it has been a while since I have been on but things are still ticking along slowly. So got the car running now, turned out it needed a distributor cap and that fixed the running problems. Also changed the lambada sensor and put new brake cables in. Got wheels and other parts from arthuy all fitt...

So it’s been a busy couple of weeks Thanks for all the advice and guidance but rather than fiddle around weeks on end checking everthing as suggested and maybe still having no luck, I caved in and took it to a Volvo specialist to have a look and see what they can diagnose, hopefully it will sort the...

So have been trying to sort out an issue with the fuel system. The car starts and runs for about 2O minutes or so then splutters to a stop and will not start. I think the problem is with the fuel system when I check the spark plugs after cranking a few times after it has stopped they are dry and don...

Thought I would give some sort of update. Work has slowed coming into the winter but have managed to replace the front suspension units on both sides after much much effort.

Good idea would never have thought of that I shall try doing it that way but I might change the shocks in the near future so could be easier to just do all the donkey work now but we’ll see how it works out. I think it is coming from the boot, on filling it up it started to come out in the middle of...

Thought I would add some sort of update. Work has been slow but have got the water pump changed along with the fuel filter. Went to change the gearbox oil and found very little oil so went to top it up and found a leak round the driveshaft boot :( so I am in the middle of try to get the driveshaft o...

Thanks for all the replies. I shall see about getting a few pictures stuck up if I can work out how. i’m about 20 miles from Belfast so no that far. It would be great if could work something out on the wheels just looking a standard set of Volvo wheels, Rosslare is a good 5hour drive just to far but...

Hey all Thought I should stick a post on. Joined back in November and I am new to the world of 480’s that was until last March when I managed to pick up a 1993 red 480s Car had the usual rust round the rear wheel arches and bottom of driver door but nothing to terminal or bad. Some things worked oth...
