C30 Engine : - 2.0d Timing belt replaced: less performance - Page 3

Car ran up to 4500rpm.. Don't know where you got the info that it didn't.. No errors at all showed up in vida so I think what they offered was the best thing I could hope for... No cost in parts while they do at some point will notice what the problem is..

They have found the problem btw, after switching the injectors with the ones in the other car it now does 0-100 in 10seconds which sounds reasonable coming from a car that should do it in 9seconds but has 200000km. They now have sent the injectors to a place where they can diagnose which one is broken.. Hope they know more tomorrow.. Bit weird though since testing the injectors with vida did not bring up any problems..

All this replacing parts cost me about 350 euros up till now so don't think an official Volvo dealer would have been able to do this for this amount of money..

Car was not smokey btw:-)

Just heard back from the garage: result from the test of the injectors, all of them are within the limits but barely.. So they said it's be best to replace all of the.. I find this really weird though.. The cars performance changed over weekend (when changing timing belt) I can't believe that all 4 injectors degraded to much that I can feel it just over a weekend.. Is this even possible?

Final update: I just replaced all 4 injectors, got a pretty good deal at pfjones.co.uk, 4 new original injectors from siemens for 179euro each. At first car drove exactly the same, only with much higher fuel consumption.. Then I remembered I probably should have reset the adaptation values of the ecm. And what do you know, car drives like a charm again with lower fuel consumption. Thanks everyone for the help!
