340 Propshaft - £10 - Coventry

Came off my old 340, it popped off on the motorway when my worn engine mounts let it vibrate too much but was kept from hitting the road by the exhaust underneath. The splines on the front end are the tiniest bit mashed (about 1-2mm down the length of them) from where the shaft popped off while turn...

Would like a Volvo 340 please (:

Had one last year but had to sell it as i literally ran out of money (student = messed up money priorities). Kept it totally standard and very much missed it, looking for another cheap runabout once I can be rid of my VW Polo. Ideally I would like a 1.4 to keep insurance low, don't seem to be many a...

OIL FILTER - 340 1.4 (B14 I think)

Bought from ECP for a service on my old 340 but I ended up selling the car before using it. Box has been opened but filter has not been used. Copper sealing washer also included. Postage will be say £3 so I'll take offers for it on top of that price. http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m194/chris_ant...

Re: B14 Auxiliary Belt Length

Not really sure on inter-model compatibility, but I'm just going by the sizes the dude has listed - 10 X 1238 Seems to match up with what volvodspec posted up as the right sizes. Plus in that listing, way down the bottom in the description the seller basically says along the lines of 'I'm not actual...

BANG!

Prop shaft just went :( Was driving along on the motorway doing a fair old speed and just heard an almighty clunk. Few bits and bobs fell off underneath the car and gearbox obviously no longer works. The front end of it where it mounts in at the engine side has totally come loose, like the universal...

Re: SPARE PARTS - Where do you buy yours? (UK)

Ah cool, I've never tried them before.. cheers for that!

Any ideas on engine oil to use? I use 10W/40 semi-synth in my polo and have loads of that, would that be any good? Also got some Morris oil left over from my beetle, any better?

What do you lot use?
