    240 Radio Wiring

    Hello there! I wondered if anyone might know the pin configuration on this 240 radio? It's model number CR-4024, there are nine pins (eight of which are in use) but the loom has been chopped! I can work out the car side of things no problem, but the head unit remains a mystery... They're...

    Purchased This 360 GLT SE Yesterday.

    Purchased This 360 GLEi SE Yesterday. This 360 has 35,000 genuine miles on it, 1 owner car, 2.0, 25 service stamps in the book, interior is great! Full leather as you can see and also air-con! The exterior is probably the best I've seen in terms of having little to no rust or damage. It also...

    Dual mass flywheel issues on a D5

    Hello to all. I?m recently having issues with the D5 that I suspect are being caused by the dual mass flywheel. It?s rougher on tick over (intermittently shakes the seats a bit) snatches into gears more (quite like that bit to be honest) and has now started to rumble on acceleration. I was told...

    Hello to all. I'm just about to service my D5 and am told that it's Castrol 0W-30 A5/B5 that needs to be used. I understand the 0w-30 part but am not sure about the A/B side of it. The oil I have purchased is Castrol edge fully synthetic turbo diesel 0W-30 API SM/CF;ACEA A3/B3/B4, C3. No...

    Can anyone help fit a NOS kit (will pay)

    Hello there. I have had a dry NOS kit sat around for my S60 D5 for a few weeks now and it's not fitted itself as yet. Think it's fairly basic, 11IB bottle/bottle warmer, works off of a micro switch that senses full throttle, taps in after the air intake. I know little about this stuff but have...

    D5 question, any advice please!

    Hello to all. 740 running sweet as ever....S60 has a very small issue. It's a 2005 S60 D5 SE (believe it's a euro 3). Only engine mods are race tune re-map and a K&N Cone. It's just the daily driver and this isn't a big issue but.....Recently, every now and then (maybe 1 in 200 times) when I...

    Fixed it!

    Thanks again to all who advised on the 740 randomly not starting. It even started cutting out all together while driving! Not much fun round bends. Only got round to looking at it last night and it turned out to be a dry solder joint on the first coil of the fuel pump relay. Got my trusty Weller...
