Now I know I am getting old when something seems fairly recent but turns out to be seven years ago. I'm turning into my Dad!

Took the car to my local Volvo dealer because a) they are within walking distance and b) there was another job that needed diagnostics and I only had a cheap hand-held OBD11 at the time.

Parts were:
31251439 Sealing Ring (Turbo Pipe)
31251456 Gasket Turbo Oil Pipe

Parts cost back then was £3.20 so maybe £6.40 in today's costs.

No labour time listed on the invoice (just a total) but I'm guessing that they charged me an hour.

If you are planning on doing the job yourself and do not have a local Volvo dealer to get the parts from then I would recommend either phone (or probably emailing) FRF Swansea who I cannot recommend highly enough, or alternatively Parts for Volvos Online).
