This is the second breather box where the top popped off for me. Different car, similar results. Oil mess all over the driver side of the engine, and if I don't fix it it will eventually spell the end for the starter and IACV. I don't want to pay $70 for a Volvo part, but now I probably should. I'm thinking of throwing a used one in there now. The worst part is that this car has EGR so I have to fight with that metal octopus underneath the intake manifold! It sucks, it's a pretty crappy job all around. So, anyone else have similar troubles, have they melted the pieces back together? Can you use plasti-weld?
