Hi, sadly I couldn't really capture it on camera so it isn't shown, sorry! If you slap the caliper like in the clip I inserted you can see if it has excess movement, it should be very stiff! It was like a thumping at times, on rough or cobbled streets it was so bad and constant budumdumdumdum, and if I dragged the brakes it went away (probably cos when braking it clamps and stabilises itself against the disc if that makes sense. Good luck man, it's a nightmare tryna find rattles!

I went for the recommended Tein settings, it's in the middle so 11/10 I think! When I get my wheels on and lower the car I'll likely go stiffer to prevent excess rubbing

bro 11/10 setting from max 16 click anti-clockwise to 11/10 click?

@@Tommy-wo4hg mine's got up to 20 i think? I can't remember precisely and dont have the book to hand, I just did it in the middle between soft and stiff :)

Bro idk

Man, what a great first car this will be for you! Thanks, stay tuned for next video, I fix the biggest issue these cars suffer with (there's not many to be honest they're great!)

Well, short of draining it there's not really a way to do so. Just make sure you're changing it every 8k miles and you'll be fine!

A lot of the e-torx stuff is hard to get annoyingly, luckily my halfords toolkit form 2011 still has it haha

Hi, it's a 2007! Would highly recommend one, I love this to be honest

M272 E25 your engine code if you have a V6 petrol mate, when you cycle through it with the up and down arrow is there nothing else? You can switch menus with the square icon button and then from each screen set you can cycle through those settings with the arrows or the plus button I can't remember which off the top of my head

Do you get any of the menus? Can you cycle through to anywhere other than Speedo or temp?

@@Enginesetc yes, I’ve got settings for lights and etc., everything except oil measurement

@@fifo0gaming934 Does yours maybe have a physical dipstick then? Some models do seem to have them!

I'll get round to doing one for you :)

@@Enginesetc thanks!

Hello, yes it's at: we.tl/t-iF7noqsVvr sorry for the delay in responding!

I believe it's either a 4 or 5 yes :)

You're right, de ioned water is best to use, however the coolant itself has properties that helps stop corrosion and gunk etc so if you're mixing tap water with an equal amount of coolant, it'll be fine. I've never had an issue and not really heard of any issues from it. If you were to use a heavily dilute coolant i.e. mostly tap water then yes, you may have issues you're right :) also I know, I was meant to get a bucket under it or something but as you can see it took me by surprise, nearly drowned myself so sadly it did spill. I rinsed it away with plenty of water to dilute it though so did what I could in the situation, I have 3 cats of my own so I didn't want any wildlife being harmed!

Either way works fella, doesn't matter either way I've always got a good pedal this way :)

In my opinion you should get a proper smoke test done, to look for any microscopic leaks (I've seen a pinhole in the intercooler on this one which caused issues but wasnt visible to the eye). Then also get a proper workshop to diagnose it with live data etc. they should be able to use the diagnostic machine to see WHY the boost pressure is low, the cause of it not just the symptom. Rather than changing parts and spending money for no reason

Glad I could help :) Hope the car is ok now

Thanks for the kind words and glad it helped you do your first service yourself 🫡

Yes it can cause this as if it's massively clogged up you're reducing air intake

@@Enginesetc thankyou soo much, will work on it asap

@@shadabtambe6122 good luck man, let me know how it goes! There could be other issues of course but this is a good thing to check anyway :)

Yes it's om646, the 2.2 online 4 diesel

@@Enginesetc om 646,981

Thank you, I really appreciate that! I've got plenty of plans so stick around 😎

I don't 😂 you can feel when its bottomed out and therefore tightened fully so no real need for a correct torque down really, as long as it's fully tightened

Probably not, there is however a coolant temperature sensor which could if you google where that is :)

I've researched everywhere I don't know where to find the coolant temperature sensor on this engine , its doing my head in now

I must admit I'm loving it! Congrats on picking one up

Get a 350 or isf

@@carlbrooks90 350 not possible here in the Netherlands, ISF too expensive. Will get a low mileage manual IS250.

@@thijs5931 same here, no IS350's here and I'm not rich 😂

Glad to hear you found it helpful, give it a go it's really not that hard! :)

To be honest sometimes I've had this come up, I thought it would've warmed me before that! But I added 1 litre, re-checked and it seemed ok and the car lives so it's not the end of the world 😎

I used blue coolant, G-48 specification is ideal but any blue coolant should be fine. Comma G-48 is specifically what I used

Glad to hear it helped and thanks for commenting :)

Hey fella, if I remember correctly it was baffle out for the video, 95% sure

It is, I like to give details, it seems to help people :)

Hi, I honestly just typed into ebay "volvo v70 rear wiper motor" and they're all pretty much the same :)

Thank you for the kind words!

Castrol is great but honestly any name brand synthetic oil of the correct grade will be fine. Check the oil specifications to see if it meets VW spec (whatever it states in cars handbook) and you're golden!

Good to hear it helped :)

Thank you, really appreciate that!

Sorry to say the car is gone, it kept breaking down every single month and was draining me financially and mentally 😂 Didn't seem to gain much traction here either so I cut my losses

That's a shame...I'm gonna treat myself to a 220 sport for Christmas...what problems did it give you?

@@roderickjones7479 220 sport will be mint. The 220 engine in my wifes is bulletproof. The main issues were either bushes (heavy engine up front) but I kept getting fuel pressure issues. Changed high pressure fuel pump, regulator, all lines etc and couldn't pinpoint the issue sadly. But I think that was engine specific being the 270. You'll be fine with a 220!

@Enginesetc cheers dude... When I eventually buy 🙄it I'll let you know how I get on.

You tried the trick I mentioned here dude? Backing bolts out and revving? Persistence, soaking with penetrant, revving, twisting etc it will be possible man just keep at it!!

There was no error, so why does it need to be? Car is still driving fine to this day on 130k miles now 🫡

I knew what I meant 👀😂

Thank you matey

I am short

Think it was just straight Phillips, either way, got it out 🫡

Thanks man, I really appreciate that :)

Thank you! I don't sorry, should be able to find online somewhere perhaps?

@@Enginesetc Difficult. There may be some behind paywalls, but the sites seem scetchy. Thought there maybe would be some for free but i'll keep looking.

@@henrik.johnsen I see, sorry you're struggling!

Thanks for the kind comment!

Have to make sure it's the right colour with the correct options etc so I just grabbed this one whilst I was at the scrap yard getting other bits, it probably owed me £5 each mirror 🫡

Thanks for the kind comment :)

Thanks, glad it helped
