The bushes underneath the grey engine covers are perished & they are rattling around on idle. I've rang Volvo & they want £25 for a set of new bushes, so it'll cost £50 for a few pieces of rubber!

So I need to take the engine covers off, give them a good clean where the tape will be sticking & then apply the tape? Presumably, the cover will need some tape all around to keep it stable/secure? Will this tape actually last though, taking into consideration how hot the engine bay gets?
I cut along a length of thin rubber tubing and slipped that over the edge of the cover at the back between the fixing /locating hooks.

Never budged and better than tape.

Here you go. Thin rubber tube with a cut along it's length and eased over REAR edge of engine cover.

Thanks for the pictures. Did you use anything to hold the tubing in place, or does it fit snug enough that it holds itself?

No, I just slid it over and it has remained in situ by itself.
