Hello Everyone,

I have an early-850 front left side light (the short version) to give away... It got sent in error by supplier and does not fit our 1994 850.

Hello,

Hey can you point me towards the model of boroscope that you bought? I'm intrigued as it seems you can "look back up to the spark plug hole that the wire has come through... Did you get it from Aliexpress?

Cheers, John.

So an update to my previous update...

I mentioned that a squeaking noise still persisted after changing the tensioner and idler pulley on the serpentine (accessory) belt. I thought it might be the water pump as other possibilities had been "eliminated".

I am in France so can ...

Hello Everyone,

Hello,

Thanks for the replies! Indeed full marks to those who proposed a vacuum leak. Phew. Well, it wasn't so much a leak as a "pinch"... the rubber elbow from the intake manifold fitting buried behind/under the power steering pump had weakened to the point of pinching. As vacuum increased it got ...

Hello,

We have a rather strange noise that has just started on on 1997 V70 (B5254FS).
It could be described, by my wife, like a cheap alarm clock buzzer... whine?
Not a whistle... It does change with revs. It disappears on acceleration and is most
apparent at idle revs.

I would say that it is ...

Thanks! I figured this had to be the case... I go and take a closer look at where these are to be attached.
