As a native English speaker I had to Google it too.

How does Scrabble work if there's no board and no numbers on the tiles?

My new thermostat housing from Skandix was due to arrive today so I started preparing while it was still daylight.

I had already swapped to hex bolts for the temporary repair so it wasn't too hard to get the top off this time ...

On Sunday I attempted to change my thermostat and discovered that some gorilla had been in there before. The first torx socket I tried wasn't as good a fit as it should have been and by the time I tried a better one the damage had been done. The bolts resisted all attempts to undo them until the ...

It's likely that the solder joints inside the ECU have failed again. It will have temporarily worked itself into a position where it's making contact but I think the problem will return. My light came and went several times before I fixed it.

I managed to get a spare key for my 1996 850 from Timpsons. I think it was something like £54, which is still quite a lot but about as cheap as you'll get for a chipped key. Not all Timpsons branches have the same gear so try a few if the first one doesn't work.

I've put a four bolt front hub on my '96 850 when an eBay seller sent the wrong part. Everything fitted perfectly, I didn't even notice it was the wrong part until I tried to put the wheel back on.

Something else I just noticed is that my clock is staying on constantly now, and the clock is the only thing that works other than the boost gauge. It’s odd to me that the clock will appear, but the info screens will not.


The boost gauge is mechanical and I assume the clock would normally be ...

I was lucky with those. Somebody local to me on the UK Volvo forum advertised the floor panel for sale just after I got the car. I then realised you needed the bracket too, and forgot about it for a while. Eventually I got round to fitting the changer with the bracket I did have, which fitted around ...

I fitted a brand new one (25 GBP including shipping from the US to the UK) to my 855 earlier this year.
