Default 1998 V70R spark plugs....someone help lol

Hi all,

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what plugs go into a 2.3 V70R? I cannot remember which I purchased for my V70 T5 either!

The owners book just says 'spark plugs - 20'.

Anyone have an exact Bosch code for it? It's a standard engine.

Thanks!

Hi NewbieV70T5,

I have the same year and model car, so our engine's code is B5234T. According to my Haynes manual, the spark plug type you need is Bosch FR 7DPP 10.

Hope this helps.

Fit genuine plugs on these - P/N 8692071. Manufactured by Bosch to Volvo specifications.

Caffyns have a sale on https://volvo.caffynsparts.co.uk/par...turbo-8692071/ or you could try FRF Swansea for a price.
