It had been riding particularly harshly over potholes on that side, and despite passing an MOT in August it was continuing to bounce once or twice after a firm compression. I asked a friend […]

It had been squeaking for some time, and neither WD-40 nor 3-in-1 light oil was helping long-term. I found a new one listed on eBay as a Renault Laguna/Safrane part. It’s identical to the one several Volvos (including my 850). I paid £15 […]

Here’s the outcome… Here’s a shot of 2 different TD04 refurb kits off eBay. I ended up using the […]

As I’d imagined, this wasn’t as easy as the fronts 🙂 I chocked the front wheels, put it in park (optional for those with manual boxes!), loosened the wheel bolts and jacked up the car, placing an axle […]

I fabricated a tool from sheet aluminium to hold the aux belt pulley while undoing the 36mm crankshaft nut. With the nut off, I used a cheapo Laser 6″ puller to draw the pulley […]
