If the OBD2 is reading the correct ECT temperature then we can eliminate a lot of the remainder of the system.

I do not think these sensors differ between T5 to NA AFAIK.

@Abscate, on the volvo website it shows that these are the same through the P2 series. FCP differs from the volvo oem parts website. Any chance you have a spare P2 sensor you could stick in temporarily to see if it works?

I have a confession to make. After some research i have come to terms that messing up the mixture of coolant to water after applying a head gasket treatment led to the demise of my much beloved wagon. I looked at the pulley today and it took damage from the -33 C night when the engine block froze. T...

I am able to do it with a foxwell scanner with the Volvo liscense. Does not require a software load or purchase, it’s just a configuration switch. A dealership s...

My 08 s60 2.5T does not vibrate that much in idle. My motor mounts looked "good" but were sagging (hydraulic ones) and one was replaced which made it a bit better. How is your top mount? Is it a rubber or poly mount, i have heard the poly mounts can transfer more vibrations through the whe...

Thor wheels with 225/45R17 Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 removed ready to be cleaned and stored. Thor.jpeg Replaced with Mimas wheels with 205/...

Not to familiar with electronic methods but just run a dry pump. It should show no resistance. Worst case you remove the internals and leave it just with the bearing and pulley

Why do you want an electric pump?
