+1 on that.

His videos helped me number of times, too.
Most recent- rear brakes- pads, shoes, discs...

Sadly, I think he's moved on from his S60 has I haven't seen a post on his Youtube channel for a while. Kudos to you - and thanks for all the great info and instruction. I did offer to buy ya a few beers on your channel but you never responded - offer remains.
That's very kind of you to say.
I still have the S60 (6 years this year and 200k miles) but there haven't been any new videos because there's been nothing to do on the car that hasn't already been filmed..... Thankfully, 80+ videos have covered the common issues, which sounds like they're unreliable but they're not.
They're just just quirky to get running right but I wouldn't change it for the world and my children wouldn't allow me anyway.
