WTB: a favour from a UK bod

I need one of you (martin? lee? jamo?) who at the April meet quoted sub fiver prices for the tailgate washer nozzle fitting to do me a favour and get me one - my local dealership, despite being seemingly good on other parts prices, still want a silly amount of money for one (I'm sure they think I want the pump or something) - anyone got the part number as an alternative?

Isn't part listed on your CD?

Failing that phone Becklands Parts (Volvo Dealer in Birmingham)

01216224491

Either that or Lee can pick one up i should imagine as he'll be able to get one before me at Ring a Bells Volvo in Solihull

yes, it almost certainly is, but I am not near that atr the moment , and besides, I'm hoping _someone_ will just get me one *hint*

Would love too but i at he moment i aint getting lunch breaks.

Lee's the man, he got time on his hands (when you can get him away from his mrs)

Dragon, I'll see about getting you one from Volvo Slough. Will be Friday if it's OK.

Martin, cheers mate - no mega rush - I've not had one for at least 6 months, but I'd like to get one before the weather turns really bad and wintery

I'm fairly certain it must have been Lee. Last time I saw him, he commented that he still had it rattling around in the storage box of his 480!

Dragon, The part number is 3432106 & I paid Â£5.90 + VAT at Evans Halshaw Volvo in Stockport.

Cheers Scott - I'll try a different dealer for this part if Martin can't get me one

Thanks mate.

Still got an album by them, and he was a killer guitarist.

Hi Dragonlord,

Is it the new 'toblerone' type as I had a cunning little fix for the old 'water pistol' type ones?

Cheers Martin mate

johnd: How do you mean toblerone style - I thought they all were back from the start of time? whats the water pistol style?

My borken one gets glued on and works fine, but keeps getting
knocked off at the jetwash by careless hose action!!

Hi Gaz,

Maybe the one I had on my ES was non-Standard. It was basically a little L-shaped nozzle that could be pivoted about. It broke off quite easily though and I fixed the broken plastic pipe with a short length of brass tube.

My Turbo has the triangular jobby though.

Never seen one like that - an oddity indeed - shame there's no pic. All my 480s have been Toblerones
