The Hooded Claw · May 12th, 2011, 19:04

I KNEW IT I really did Knew summot like this would happen .....

As you know I blew the Rad on the "C" yesterday & Brian collected it & ordered me a new one for fitting today...

SIMPLE???? ..... Yer kidding right....

I booted up VADIS on Weds nite & (as yer do) stuck in my VIN Number up pops my details (No probs there then) ... But Wait..... Anomolies (I like that word lots, ANOMOLIES!!!!) crop up..

Digging deep into VADIS I find that it THINKS my car is NOT ME7 it is I KNOW IT IS I can SEE IT IS!!!

Brian is now awaiting the FORTH radiator as the first three didn't fit!!!!! ...

OH BUM!!!!! Mucho digging & Phone calls followed & finally we arrived at a "Possible" solution My engine No ends in 760 the very first ME7 engine ended in 701 making mine the 59th ME7 engine Volvo fitted.

Don't Know whether thats GOOD or BAD really !!!
