general help
Hi guys,
I recently bought a 2.5 10v S70, cheap. Its done around 180k. I've just replaced the cv joints and a previous owner has done lower wishbones recently. What other points should I check out? Any common faults? I'm new to these motors lol. Cheers |

Crank ventilation system commonly known as the PCV system. if blocked causes excess pressure which after time blow's seals. when the car is idling pull the dipstick out. if its puffing like a train its blocked and needs to be cleaned/replaced.

Have a look at the buyer's guide in the Sales section at the top - a bit more info there, all good stuff.
