volvo 850 tdi 220000 N REG

I have just bought 2003 V70 diesel auto with 230,400 miles. seems to run OK only renewed discs and pads, Starts fine and and really wonder how many miles these D5 engines can do.

V70 D5 SE 52 plate... 78K miles, but rapidly gaining now
Had fuel injector problem :( at aroun 60K miles; had two replaced by a local diesel injection specialist (Doctor Diesel, Oswestry)... cost about £650, main dealer wanted >£1K, plus they were rude.
Had adjustable steering column lock break at 4yrs of age, so steering telescoped in and out whilst driving, made for an interesting experience (and must have looked a little strange), net result was around £600 of expense, Volvo foot half the bill. Had discs changed and new pads at about 65K miles by main dealer, shortly thereafter one of back brakes seized. Took it to local Volvo specialist and the drum mechanism had been punctured and had then corroded (strange it was only a few months after main dealer had 'renewed all necessary components and changed hydraulic fluid'). I believe the brake inside the handbrake drum had separated. The fuel economy was down, there was a build up of brake dust all over the wheel and you could smell burning! I don't think the wheel had completely seized. There is more written on this subject elsewhere on this forum. Fuel economy around 46mpg (manual), mixed driving |
2000 s40 1.9D
160,000 miles just came up and still starts and runs perfect.
Replaced discs and pads and a handbrake caliper recently. Also got timing belt done. Second time in its lifespan. Expecting another 100K out of it anyway.... |
My v70 yr 2000 2.5 diesel has 183,000 and climing by about 3k to 4k a month
|
Now then, have a '51 plate D5 chipped tp 200 bhp, just passed 171,500, first real problem is the Split in Intercooler feed pipe from Air Intake. Oh the tensioner on the back of the Alternator went at around 160,000-was £160 replacement. But apart from that awesome Svensk Engineering !! I drive 1250 miles per week, up and down the A1, sits at 80 ish, usually get 40-45 mpg, you really cannot fault it with this level of comfort and reliabilty-Cheeooors
