Volvo 940 turbo 1996, M90 gearbox. Anybody who knows what type of oil to use? I asked Volvo, and they came up with a specific volvo number. A very expensive oil, costs almost half of my left arm... Any better suggestion? -- Regards Knut
« I'd just dump some Redline MTL in there, it'll work fine. They claim it's acceptable to use in *any* manual gearbox. I've been running it in my M46's for years, surprisingly it made shifting notic.. »

My 940 Turbo Celebration (1998, 160Kmiles)) has a very noisy engine, and I think ineed to bite the bullet and get another one. (it was noisy when I bought it and sounded like tappets, but it isn't and it's gradually getting worse - suspect either a big or little end) The engine type is a B230..
« .... You need another B230FK or a B230FT. Both are identical blocks, the difference is the turbo pressure, the B230FT produces 165 (european) hp. B230ET is an older engine without catalytic conve.. »
« Thanks Vitus, that's exactly what I needed to know. Do you happen to know if cars fitted with these 2 engine models are fitted with the same ECU? If I can find an engine complete with a bigger t.. »
« Hi Steve! Both engines use the same ECU (Bosch LH 2.4), they use the same turbo, same exhaust etc and were sold for the same price here in germany. The difference is the bypass valve on the turbo.. »
« Are you *sure* the noise is internal to the engine? You may have already checked this well, but look very carefully for noisy accessories before condemning the engine. »

« i do...$5 pay pal to: and I can e mail you the zip file...thanx...its aprox 150 pages »
« Not looking for Haynes or Chilton here. we are talking about factory service manual, just to be clear. »
« The entire factory service manual is 150 pages? »
« It's not a factory manual per se, meaning it's not a GROSSBUCH, does not have every step and it's definitely not 1000 pages or so. It's more like very-very-very exended owners manual which could be.. »

Update to a previous question. My turbo unit is working but I am not getting the speed I used to out of the car. When the turbo is engaged I can hear a intermitent whooshing sound. Following on from previous advice I fitted a new induction pipe leading from the air mass meter to the turbo. Tried i..
