Re: 2006 S60 How to clean turbocharger?

Thanks again vtl. Just read up on DICE VIDA. Nice little tool for Volvos. I'm going to think about getting one soon. I just spent about 300 bucks on parts like all 5 engine and torque mounts, oil trap, PCV breather hose, etc for the Volvo so I'll have to wait a little bit to buy one. Definitely grat...

I don't really have a nice code reader that does real time sensor readings. I was also thinking there's a possibility that the turbo actuator might be stuc...

Re: 2006 S60 How to clean turbocharger?

Also, what does the VVT solenoid do? Not sure what you mean by if it gets better. Does that mean that di...

Re: 2006 S60 How to clean turbocharger?

Thanks for the reply vtl. I'm going to have to try replacing that. BTW, at which RPM is the turbo supposed to kick in?

2006 S60 How to clean turbocharger?

Hey guys, Thanks in advance. I've been searching online on how to clean the turbocharger without removing it to no avail. I found a guy who was cleaning his Audi's turbocharger with some oven cleaner from the UK. I don't know if I should try that with my 2006 S60 or not. The reason why I want to do ...
