Trust me this works!

Followed your advice re bump stop after repairing my arm and so far so good.

Hi, i really could do with the spare arm as the ball end on mine looks tired. Unfortunately i cannot PM you until i hit 30 posts.

Here is a photo link to my rubber bump stop following Bic1's advice.

All,
The pipes and injector kit comes to £291 Not including labour.
I have no idea how many hours were used as i wasn't charged since it should have been done properly first time.

Total for one small retaining clip going on the socket : £372 + labour (5/6 hours with all the parts?)

Hope this helps others not get ripped off!!

Provided that the repaired arm is doing it's job FULLY i believe that the car should not be in limp mode. No doubt someone who knows will shed more light.

As for the message, mine disappered ( apparently normal ) after a day or so once the arm was working properly again.

I got the "Engine service required" message and yellow triangle when my arm failed, but all I noticed was sluggish performance and worse fuel consumption. I'm pretty sure it never went into limp mode - could there be another fault? My V70 is an 06 D5 185bhp.

I have repaired mine with a pin and it seems ok so far, there is however a bit of oil around the engine part anyone know where this is coming from and why ??
