there are spongy rubber type grommets holding the engine cover in place , on mine 2003 V70 D5 126k miles these have deteriorated , the one that fits around the oil filler cap I think due to oil leaking out into the material possibly during prolonged high speed driving which is not often as I am more interested in getting high mpg , have had my D5 since new and the average mpg over its life has been 54 calculated from the fill ups and not the trip computer , I would like a T5 and seriously considered buying one but my bean counter brain got the better of me , reading these posts over 126k miles it would have cost an extra £7k in fuel even if I could acheive an average 35mpg which I probably couldnt .
