Worked out mpg post-MAF change, not significantly different. But the car now drives as it should and wants to go faster! It's never done that since I had it...

Getting clutch squawk almost every time I move off now. I think I was probably naive in thinking it would last cconsidering the miles I'm doing.

I've done 50,000 miles over 3 years with clutch squawk and a whining gearbox. Still no issues other than noise....

Replaced the MAF £96+vat from eurocarparts (should've haggled). Its less than that on the website!
It came in box with Renault group genuine parts written on it although its made by Siemens. Exactly the same visually. Got 5 litres of Helix Ultra 5w 40 for £17.99+vat but they tried to charge me £24.99 plus vat when its £24.99 retail at the moment! Sounds like you need to talk to the right person at eurocarparts! Get the wrong one and they rip you off all day long! Also found a slow puncture and took it to be repaired. Damn farmers and their hedge trimming!

The how to is here http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=85607
I did find it easier for the A/C controls to remove the radio housing. You need T4 neo wedge LED's for them both. You should use T4 tall neo wedge for the A/C, but i found the ones i used in the headlight / dimmer controls were fine http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10pcs-T4-N.../191528702617?

Well my car recently had a shock and top mount replaced and went back in today for the same on the other side!
All done I took the car back to work at lunch . When leaving at 5 I noticed the T4 decided to dump a load of oil. Took it back to the local who are going to look and fix over the weekend . Very annoying as I was going to see Alex tomorrow to fit the cruise and meet Lee at the same time too. Grrrrr Still no oil light so hopefully the car is unscathed .
