put the winters on the wagon and put the s70 trunk protector in the v70. it does not fit perfectly but has a nice lip to keep dirt and debris on the matt.

Was up a bit too early for this, seems I thought one thing and wrote the other. Heading to the mechanic tomorrow to get the brake leak fixed.yanga001 wrote: 16 May 2022, 04:38 put the winters on the wagon and put the s70 trunk protector in the v70. it does not fit perfectly but has a nice lip to keep dirt and debris on the matt.

I've seen enough of the bottom end of my engine to know it has to come out of the car, either to fix it or get another engine in.
Managed to do it in less than 3h30 today after work, was done before sunset
Had to load the engine in the 940 to cross the gravel on the way to my garage 25m away

Did you slide it in with that plywood? That doesn’t look like an easy insertion.
I extracted the last value from my rear brake pads on the T5 …..ooooof
