Removing sump

osullivant · May 19th, 2017, 18:51

Has anyone removed the sump on an xc90 185 d5. If so was it easy, do you really need the special removal tool volvo no 999?????.

I believe if you pour a litre of unleaded into the engine bay and drop a match in there it will have the same affect. Your car will still be fecked ;-)

They are still quiet tight even with all bolts out but it can be removed without special tool

such negativity....The head and sump are coming off, even if I have to use a can opener and an angle grinder, (the digger is on standby) ,,,, Unless I have 320 psi compression on a hot engine tomorrow.....

certain nettles must be grabbed.....
