Have had a few issues....

Did the head gasket, did a turbo kit and had it professionally balanced, all good now, yeah... no more white smoke. Had trans fluid in the water and water in trans.
Isolated the the rad by disconnecting and linking the trans lines at the rad with trans hose and clamps. I then flushed the trans as per FAQ with 16 litres of Dextron 3, it's still pink and frothy and the trans is lazy to shirt up and keeps kicking down too readily.
I cannot believe that there is another potential water source other than the rad, so do I just have to keep flushing 'till it clears and I'm broke and then replace the rad tank?

Advice will really be appreciated.

..and a good opportunity to say that this forum is absolutely awesome...another good reason to love volvo's!

Cheers all

Ian
