Amarin,

Absolutely, but you may remember that I had two issues:

1) The rough start when the engine was cold
2) The high pressure of the coolant, leaking from all the hoses to the radiator. The pressure was so high that it warped my(genuine) coolant reservoir when I replaced the reservoir cap.

While we can see the reason for the rough start, I am still unsure about the reason behind the high pressure of the coolant.

According to Volvo, those were two separated issues.

I am concerned because if I do not understand the reason behind the high pressure of the coolant, the risk is that I am back to square one once I re-assemble everything.

Thank you,
Alessandro
