Well, after the hassle and rip off that is EUROSTAR Garage in Tooting SW17 - the good news is that the outcome was sucessful once they were given the Elbow.
Thanks to the efficiency of EURO CAR PARTS( Mitcham Branch)
The new HT leads were fitted (Good price too – Eurocarparts), The old BKR6EKUB plugs which were on the car when purchased worked well but there was still some ‘weakness’(mixture ?). With nothing to lose and working on the reverse logic that as I couldn’t afford the expense of a proper’tune-up’ I needed to try to replicate the set-up that worked with the current carb (fuel/air) Settings. Euro Car parts offered the Denso Plug K20TXR at £10.29 inc vat.
Bought – Fitted- ………………….heaven………..Job done !
Car now runs well and the grin factor is even there.
SUMMARY : - Volvo V40.
EUROSTAR GARAGE TOOTING – CRAP ! Cowboys. AVOID AT ALL COST.
EURO CAR PARTS (BRANCHES) – EXCELLENT ! USE AT EVERY
OPPORTUNITY !
VOLVO FORUMS – EXCELLENT – USE AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY
