Picture 5 - ignore - its for a part not fitted.


Hope this is of help and my advise re the issues is to just steadily work through them one by one.

My Cheap volvo was bought with 11 faults on VIDA and I spent a grand sorting all of them.

Well worth it as you will have a great car once you have got to the bottom of each fault.

The blocked off vacuum line implies someone discovered a cavuum leak and just disconnected and blocked the line, instead of fixing the vacuum leak.
Often the engine mounts, being vacuum controlled, leak. So check the 3 x engine mounts and their vacuum lines.
Well this is interesting. I wonder why this was done?
I didn't notice it when I took it out to clean the EGR.
Faulty switch?
At the moment they are all connected at the same time with a t price that had one bit with nothing on it.
That will be leaking i assume.
I'll get to the bottom of it all.
Does any one know which one of the inlets is the inlet and outlet to the mounts ?....lol
