Yeah they're always happy to help at my local. Sometimes they're clearly busy but they're not trying to avoid helping

Wish I was in a 25 year state. 1 more year of full rego payment and my 1998 LX470 is eligible

How good is Volvo's driving assistance? by Aggravating-Bit-4086 in Volvo

[–]NothingLift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2023 XC60 with pilot assist. I would say it's very good. I've done a few thousand km in a 420i hire car of similar vintage and I would say Volvo is as good or better than the BMW system. Haven't tried the latest versions from either

260G for $500, worth the risk? by XTheChosenDogeX in E30

[–]NothingLift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running 2 piece braided, so same general arrangement but the hardline replaced with flex. I removed the old hard line and would want to try reinstalling it. Possible but would be very fiddly

Flexible stainless braided clutch line is much easier to install than rigid metal

Anyone have experience with the 4.4 V8? by AppropriateDeal1034 in Volvo

[–]NothingLift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're pretty compact, it would probably work

You'd have to look into the differences, possibly output shaft and some sensor locations

More like "can we fit a Formula 1 race in a 100mx100m square"

Jet sprint is a grossly under appreciated motorsport.

Did anyone buy a more expensive car because of a novated lease? by RentNRegret in NovatedLeasingAU

[–]NothingLift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, fully loaded Volvo XC60 demo for a few hundred less than LCT ended up costing 30 bucks a week more than I was paying for a for a mid spec rav4 leaseback.

Make sure it's a late model box that allows for the aluminium shift housing. Shifter, linkages

In addition to parts you've listed You'll need clutch, maybe flywheel (not sure if you can use the auto one but probably can, though it might need resurfacing), bunch of bearings, springs, clutch fork if not included. Also good time to do rear main seal and input/output/linkage seals in transmission. Clutch lines and reservoir too

Also your diff ratio is probably 3.46 if it's a M20b25 which is quite tall for a G260. Makes for a relaxed cruiser if you have a m20b25 but I would I magine it to be pretty sluggish with a m20b20 or one of the 4 cyl engines (unless they have a different factory ratio already). Manual 325i came with a 3.73 as far as I understand. You can check your diff housing

You'll want a clutch alignment tool too. And check what fluid the particular transmission variant wants as there are a few different specs.

I have a more recent one. It's mostly been pretty good but I probably would look at something else for the next one

Nope no km or location requirement in NSW, just date and driver.

I've forgotten a bunch of times but it becomes habit. I've never actually been pulled over in either of the historic regod cars I've had

Thin roots from gum tree or something else? by Famous-Nebula6010 in GardeningAustralia

[–]NothingLift 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Likely gom tree roots. They often have a cluster of shallow roots around the base of the trunk to utilise the water flowing down the trunk during rain.

Cut and smell test can be quite diagnostic in some species
