Not sure if this is what you are after but there is a P/N. I am sure somebody will add to this thread soon.

You are going all technical on me

True, I will scan it but I am off tomorrow and super busy, if someone can tell me how to add it that would be great.

Hi all

Let me know if you would like the VC802-VC602 manual. The manual was in the paperwork but the radio itself is long gone.

Historically I have owner many classic cars with at best marginal cooling. Over the years I have explored many avenues of releasing excess heat from the engine bay. It can even make a difference if the cooling fan blows the air through the radiator or sucks its out of it. Asbestos sheets stopped th...

it does keep debris off and a wee bitty warmer in winter, not a problem if a fair weather motor . . . .

PS there is NO under-tray on the C30 (except on diesel versions)

There are a couple of nice C30 2.5 on Auto Trader at the moment

Hi all

Skip does not have the engine undertray, can it do without considering the low mileage it will do?

Enjoy the meet all.

Unfortunately I am away 5th-11th so cannot make it but Skip will be at the Volvo specialist 4-12th for a good look around. Lots of S40 and a few 850s in there but he promised me that he worked on a lot of 480s so fingers crossed

You are right and I stand corrected. This is a BMW, early 90s 3 series by the look of it.

Well, I am not sure what else it could be. It looks suspiciously like a 480 to me

looks like it

Worst case scanario, it seems to be 34mm high and it is for sale on Ebay, has anyone ever tried this solution?

Good point. TBH the leak probably comes from the passenger side tail light as it seems to come from underneath the plastic cover in the corner but replacing a 25 year old seal is not wasted

Hi all

Can I buy a generic rubber gasket for the boot (by the metre) and if "yes" is there something specific I need to look at? If the answer is "no" can they still be found?

I have already asked for parts on it last week, so far it is all or nothing but there is hope

Cool

I will keep an eye on this. Skip might be reliable by then

Hi all

I found this pic on the forum but could you confirm that this is the temperature sensor which reports to the Infocenter?



Thanks in advance

Hello

Ship has decided to develop the same fault, do you have a pic of where I can find this "double sensor" for me to toggle it and see what happens please?

Depends who you talk to - some will say that the specific brand of bulb will either enable or prevent the pop ups from functioning correctly, others will say that they are completely unrelated. So yes, it's a known phenomenon, the explanation, however, is unclear... The brand was "Other". £2.45 for...

Problem solved I think.

Skip is picky when it comes to bulbs. I bought 2 and my problems stopped when I tried the second new buld. Tried again with the first new bulb and the same problem occured.

Have you heard of that before?
