[Hsustyle]

Looking At this tomorrow and I'm new to volvos.
I'm after the 5 cylinder T5 250bhp.

Its listed as 2.5? I thought they were 2.3 or 2.4?

What am I looking at here?

That is the 2.3-litre T5 with 250bhp.

The 2.5T (210bhp) is badged "2.5T", whereas the 250bhp 2.3 T5 is badged "T5".

There was also a 2.4 T5 with 260bhp.

Looking at the photo of the dash, looks like it's due a service and is that the air bag warning light on ?

This section is for 07 upwards you should try asking in the 00 - 07 section.
I jumped straight from P1 to P3 and know nothing about P2......

Good Luck......

Oops just noticed I'm in the wrong section.
Airbag light and service is OK with me, I'll sort that.

I think you will find the 2.5 is low pressure turbo LPT. I had one of these in the classic P1 V70 . Great engine but not nearly as quick as the T5 2.3 . A costly problem with both models and one to be aware of is the rear crank oil seal leaking. This is a common fault on high milage cars . Oil drips when parked up and really makes a mess. It's a gearbox out job to repair/ replace the crank . If seal has worn a groove in the crank then set the seal at a different level to avoid the groove. This problem usually only occurs with cars that have neglected or poor oil change intervals.
Hope it helps.
