Mine isn't treated quite so nicely and gets serviced once a year so generally around every 14K.

Glad you've found the cause, interesting that nothing was found in VIDA for the faulty injector.

Let us all know how it goes when the repair is done.

Whilst it can be hard to tell such things at the side of the road you have bought a car that is not legal. You are responsible for making sure the vehicle you drive is legal. You now need to make it legal to continue using it. You may also have invalidated your insurance due to the modifications so could be in real trouble if you had a bump and they cancel your policy. I would go back to the seller and tell him to buy it back or cover the cost of returning it to standard. Even in a private sale you can make a miss sold claim.

You are entitled to your opinion.... however humble it may be.

I couldn't agree more. I try to shy away from any form of conflict or taking any sides on forums but some of the content of this thread has become completely unnecessary and pretty depressing really and the tone in the last few of my 13yrs of participation here seems to be declining. This is supposed to be a car forum for Volvo owners and enthusiasts. Whilst some of the points made may have a very valid argument behind them perhaps we should all be thinking about how we convey it when written down. There's certainly never a good reason for name calling and insults.

Hopefully the above is taken in the spirit it was written with which was good intention.
