Volvo 480 Club Europe

So the centre section is £50.00 and the rear part if £77 plus £40 for fitting, that's going to be £167.00, maybe a bit more if there's VAT on the labour. Halfords have quoted me £201 for getting the whole lot done including warranties for the parts and labour; it's only another £34 so I may as well ...

Yep, 1.7 litre K Reg.

Here is a link to pictures of my current exhaust.

Hey Gltease,

Thanks for the update, is this a company you've used before? Does that item represent the middle and back section for my model?

Sorry, I'm pretty clueless about these things!

Cheers

Hi Folks, Just found out that I need the middle and back section for my car, it's blowing pretty badly. The garage have quoted me £400 for the parts because they'll need to be custom made. Does anyone have any sensible suggestions for where I can get a decent quality exhaust? Cheers and many thanks!...

I think I'll need a replacement front part of the lock won't I? How will I get one of those?

Hey all, My 480 was attacked the other night by some hooigan with a sharpish impliment. It looks like they've jabbed something and given it a good wrench around. Anyone got ideas on the best way to get it fixed? https://db.tt/9tdfC0Fn https://db.tt/1snxAvm1 I've been able to lock and unlock the door...

how much do you want for them including postage. can you fit them for me if I drive down and what would you charge please?

Both my window regulators are broken, any one got a good suggestion for replacements?


Cheers

Which dealer? Sorry, I've never bought new parts before, except from Halfords.

A website or company name would be absolutely awesome!

Cheers

Hi and thanks for this, where can I actually order the parts from though. Sorry, I realise this mus be a nooby question.

Also, how can I get them the correct colour to match my car?

Thanks so much!

Hiya Harriet and thanks for the reply, The left hand one is completely gone so I need the back colour coded section. However, i think i can probably fix the one on the right hand side. How can I order one from the main dealers, sorry to be such a noob, but I usually let the garage do this sort of th...

Hey all, For some reason the plastic cowlings around my two wing mirrors have decided to fall apart and I need to replace. My car is a 1992 special edition with green top and grey bottom and the wing mirrors cowlings are colour coded to the green colour. Does anyone know where I might be able to get...

Hiya Jim,

It's the 448082 version I have. How can I get the cash to you?

Cheers

Hey guys, I have a K reg 480, one of the hoses is bust and I need to replace it, can you tell me the name for this and where I can get one from please.

Is this the caliper I need?

Nice one Glasgowjim, you're awesome!

Ok, the things I need and was quoted:

Offside rear caliper : Aprox £180
Offside rear handbrake cable : Aprox £130
Rear Pads Aprrox £80.

All these prices include fitting and VAT.

Does this seem reasonable?

Mot failed on Offside Rear Parking brake recording little or no effort. [3.7.A.7A]. Garage is saying that the Pads are breaking up as well so they need to be replaced. He said there was a problem associated with the fulcrum. His suggested ball park figure for repairs was about £186 plus £50 if the...

Well, it looks like it's the battery that's gone, does not look like it's a leak. But with just ignition turned on , no blowers, only sidelights, it's drained the battery from over 12 Volts down to 11 in less then 1 minute which apparently is not good. Does anyone have any recommendations for good b...
