Re: Word on iRoll tuning chips in 850 turbos ?

Re: Question related to Alignment - 1994 855T

Re: Options to fix a rear main seal leak

150K The car still runs great but I can buy another used one for what it wold cost to make the repair. I can't even sell it.
I don't know where you live but you can't find a great running turbo volvos around here for 850 bucks. Time to have it fixed or scrap it.

I wondered if it meant starting problems,but its never given me any trouble. I couldn't for the life of me figure out what it was there for. This thread makes a likely reas...
