Hi ya,

I have a UK spec 94 / changeover type 2L 20V. I too suffer the problem with noisy lifters, well you need ear plugs in the first 10 minutes.

I use Mobil 1, over here it is 0/40 grade. Due to the thinness it does make the sound actually worst until the engine is warmed up properally. When she is at operating temp you wouldn't know she suffers from this.

I did ask how much the fix was for this and it came back at £1200 pound or in Uncle Sam money $1800. Do i have a real problem i ask ? Know not really if you can put up with the noise then don't have the work done.

As she is 9 years old now and covered 189k miles if when back in worked and i've saved enougth up i'll have the job done.

I've heard a lot about ABS module failures, but mostly on 96 and 97. First question, does my '93 have the same module and do u know any reliability info? and second, does the TrACS share the same module with the ABS?

I had this problem off and on until the indy Volvo mech diagnosed it as a leaky seal in the oil pump. I don't remember exactly how much it cost to fix this part since I had other stuff done at the same time but I believe it was less than $200.
