Thanks, I will give that a shot. I really appreciate the response.

Crazy and almost as stupid as it sounds, all the lights are computer controlled and your problem might be in the UEC / AKA the big fuse box under the...

I already checked the fuse, and it’s good (sunroof is on the same fuse, fwiw). When you say pull battery ground, do you mean simply disconnecting the...

Check fuse 10 for power to receiver first, if fuse is good pull battery ground cable to reset entire car and hope for best. Odds of both keys being...

The 9-5 cam cover has a textured surface which makes getting it to look anything like new very difficult. On the 9000 the same part was painted black...

I plan on getting a hirsch y pipe dual silencer exhaust. Not sure on the specs of that.

Might I suggest replacing the broken terminal end. Crimping a new terminal end on the existing wire is the most cost effective fix.

I also get a 3/4 reading when the tank is full. I believe the aftermarket fuel pump sender might have a different voltage range than the original...

I got a high flow 2.5 inch cat back from Simons exhausts on my 2006 9-3 aero v6. High flow means that your gas gets blown faster out of the engine....

With built-in SatNav in the NG and the Volvo I only use the TomTom when in the OG or hire cars when abroad. While landmarks etc are still there the...

I appreciate people's concern at having out of date maps, yes it is annoying. Equally however, just how annoying, all the major landmarks are still...

properly scandalous nothing more to say

Year road licence - OG 9-5 2.3t Auto £525, NG 9-5 Ttid manual £195, V40 D2 manual NIL! First to be replaced will be with petrol and then...

European union willing to have more restrictive regulations for the future, objectives remains to ban the diesels at least, and having petrol...

Good - I was looking at the Q3 but difficult to get the spec I needed for an affordable price - puts it on a par with dearer / larger SUVs which...

There's no substitute. For me, it's Audi or BMW.
