1998 V70 2.5T CD Auto - spares or repair.
For sale due to no compression on #4 cylinder caused by a suspected exhaust valve fault, (only my own assessment, however).
1997/98 V70 2.5T CD Auto, 200k, dark blue, leather/alcantara grey? interior. Stage zeroed 2 years ago with Volvo/OEM parts. Driveable but very shaky at idle and around 2000rpm or low rpm under load. Is almost normal above 3000rpm. The car has done about 700 miles out of necessity on 4 cylinders without change. For MOT history, current reg is OUI 1225 but is absolutely not included and will revert to R969MJF. MOT due August. It’s not rare or a future classic!! It’s going to the scrap yard if no-one wants it but it would be a shame for it not to be harvested or maybe saved at a push. I’ve listed what I think will be of interest outside of the main bulk as they are recent parts. It used to go to garages and the dealership until I lost faith and have done all the work myself since including regular servicing. 2 sets (x4) of Perfos; one set with Crossclimate+ and one with Crossclimate 2. Tyres are good but all wheels need a refurb. Witter tow bar. Used twice (to tow a sailing dinghy ½ mile). Volvo rubber mats and hard boot tray. SC901 stereo with the amp setup. Work +parts from last couple of years: Cat back exhaust – Volvo Heater matrix - Behr A/c compressor – unknown brand as fitted by French garage Power steering pump – Meyle Leads – Magnecore reds. Cap and rotor - Bosch Full Volvo cambelt kit including water pump. Aux belt and tensioner pulley – Conti/Volvo Volvo PCV kit. All vacuum lines including NRVs and vapour solenoid –Bosch. Turbo bypass valve diaphragm – FCP TCV – Pierburg Headlights and front indicators – PFV Swedish Front and Rear callipers – PFV Swedish All disks and pads – Volvo Hand brake shoes – Volvo The usual 3 engine mounts/ bushes - Volvo ABS unit re-soldered. Only by me but it’s lasting well Cam seals by main dealer for the big MOT oil leak. Rear wiper mechanism. Driver’s door switch pack – Volvo Both delta link bushes Both front drop links Both rear shock mounts/bushes. Fuel cap + stay- Volvo Parts included: Front coil top mounts and and bearings – Meyle + Lemforder (right side bearing failed). The car is scruffy outside but clean, dog and smoke free inside. I’ve used it as a normal car but most of the last 100k has been motorway driving. It was rigged for motability at some point and the front right control for the front left window was the raising and lowering button for the lift. As such, you can’t lower the front left from the right but you can raise it. It needs a new Cat and it has an exhaust/manifold leak ivo the flange. Everything else works as it should except the headlamp washers, which I’ve removed, but it also has lots of imperfections. The driver’s door strap is disconnected as the wing mount needs the usual weld; the driver’s door latch isn’t perfect but hasn’t changed for 5 years. The load cover doesn’t retract. There is a decent area of rust bubbling on the front wing behind the indicator. It has a minor oil seap/leak that I can’t find. Nivomats and or rear coils are getting a bit tired. I don’t want to break it for parts yet but may do if no-one wants it as a whole. That said, the Perfos with CC+s are available for collection independently for £100. £500 for a lot of car or a lot of parts (scrap value alone is nearly £300 now). Please feel free to ask any questions, ask for particular photographs or pass comment. The car is in Bath. |
