2002 V70 D5 Just Need Some Advice
I've just bought a 52 plate V70 D5 to use as a daily hack but it has the dreaded clock fault, I have a man lined up to help with that though. My question is, can the clock fault cause limp mode & cutting out issues or is it likely to be something else?
Also how do you get the heater switch panel out? I've pulled the pen holder off & removed the 2 screws at the bottom but can't work out how to get any further |

Pull the heater module down and forward at the same time, you may need to wriggle it round a bit, and it will pop off 2 spring clips at the top. Disconnect car battery before removing cables to that module or you’ll set an airbag warning.
Clock fault won’t cause the cutting out and limp mode. I’d check fuel filter first for that as it often gets missed at services |

Clocks unlikely to be the cause of limp. However, the clocks are a sort of clearing house for all sorts of signals and if it is acting up a lot of troubleshooting will be futile. The SRS system in particular.
Try pulling the bottom of the climate panel outwards. It should come out and it hangs from hooky things at the top edge. Make sure your battery is disconnected for at least 10 minutes before opening any connectors in the cabin. Otherwise you risk setting an SRS lamp that needs high end kit to reset. |

Thankyou chaps, I'll wait until the clocks are sorted before I start digging any further

Well, progress has been made, the clocks are fixed which has cleared a lot of fault messages, interrogated the engine ECU & it came up with EGR insufficient flow detected, Fuel rail pressure too high, fuel rail pressure too low & another one about the turbo actuator. I've cleared them all off & we'll just see what returns.
I've got a set of filters coming for it today & also a seal for the in-tank pump, as it's leaking since I've fuelled it up |

Some people tried fitting EGR blanking plates to these cars and depending on the year they throw a fault code.

Well! I gave it a good service last night & the fuel filter had been a fuel filter for a very long time, it appears to have completely eradicated (is that right?) the limping & cutting out. Flaming clocks have gone off again though
Also it's got a fuel leak from the top of the tank, I've got the new seal but the locking ring wont budge so I'll order a ring & be rough with this one to get it off. As for the heater panel, I see what you mean but I can only get one side to release at the top....................maybe more roughness is required |

Make sure that the leak on the top of the tank is from the seal. If the fuel pump hasn't been out, I'd say it's unlikely to be a seal leak. If the pump has been out, it's possible that there is some debris around the seal (I have that particular tee shirt). I've never had to replace a seal, just the locking rings. Make or buy a tool similar to this (I adapted a three leg adjustable remover) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07BH363...a-465847552048 to remove and replace the lock ring.
Check the fuel line outgoing and return lines to the in-tank pump - I've had two failures due to stress fractures.

Nice one I will purchase one right away thanks.
I'm pretty sure it is the pump that's leaking rather than pipes as it was fine when it was low on fuel & only started leaking once I'd brimmed it, also the fuel collects on top of the pump |
