vented disks

Post by V480TI » Sun Dec 25, 2005 10:41 pm

from wich year did Volvo mount the vented brakes on the turbo's????
I now seen a 1991 turbo with orange clusters, but new type mirrors and good condition overall, and it has ABS, will this be ABS 2 or the first one ?!?

Maybe wanna buy it as a replacement for my "new" 480
(see pics on the belgian 480 club).
(and don't get a hardattack....)

When it's an original ABS system, it would be the first version ABS. I've got a simmilar car but from '92 and it has ABS, but it's a version 1.

By the way, how long do the ABS and brake-warning light stay on when you start the car? Mine stay on for about 30 seconds and I think that there's something wrong with the system.
