Update: Engine shut down described in last post turned out to be due to the plug coming loose on fuel injector relay. As soon as I pushed the plug snug, the engine started. Exhaust still smoking burning oil when engine is warmed up and idling, but somehow barely any oil consumption after a couple of...

Thanks. Volvo confirmed it fits but @ $250!, it sell for over 10x FCP Euro price.

Update: The engine shut down that I described in my last post was entirely due to the fact that the plug connected to the fuel injection relay that sits just above the radiator worked itself loose. The module was repaired at a shop (for a ridiculous amount I might add, given that Parts Geek is curre...

Could someone please confirm if the lower right engine mount listed on the FCP Euro web site as "Corteco 9135178" fits the manual drive (I only see the automatic listed. Thank you.

Update: Since my last post, I have been driving the car and simply monitoring the engine oil level. I was surprised that a recent 1000 km round trip did not result in any noticeable oil consumption. The car ran perfectly at highway speeds and by that I mean the power from the engine felt as it shoul...

One more thing. I bought a front passenger side door to replace the side mirror and decided to take the whole door as the donor car had practically no rust. I have installed the door only to find it does not fit snuggly along the top of the door frame and part way down the middle pillar between the ...

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions. Definitely going to have to get the mount under the crank pulley replaced asap. Hopefully this can be easily sourced. FCP EURO or IPDUSA I suppose, but do you know if there is any place I can order it from (besides a Volvo dealership) in Canada? The whomp whom...

Yes, my car has the SRS air pump under the battery tray. Speaking of the battery I recently began to experience difficulties starting the engine. The starter was replaced with a used starter four of five years ago. It worked fine although it often required me to turn the key twice before the starter...

Thanks Neil! Turns out the top radiator has a fresh tear in it at the clamp ... an engine mount needs to be replaced and that has put a strain on that hose. Doesn't explain yellow residue on the rear spoiler but you have provided a possible explanation. I will check the turbo lines. The dip stick do...

I have been having problems with my engine. What I imagine is a tell-tale sign of a coolant leak (and perhaps a blown head gasket?), there is yellow powder residue (as seen in the attached pictures below) that has sprayed onto the oil cap and the some of the nearby pipes and hoses. This residue is a...
