Not retro but need help!
Our 2002 Volvo V70 D5 is very lumpy in the cold and has dropped about 4-5 mpg over the last few weeks. It went to the dealer who said 'must be the injectors £1500 please'. Dad told him where to put his injectors and booked it in with the local diesel specialist. They tested the injectors and they're fine, so they went to do a compression test. Unfortunately the engine has abnormally small glow plugs so they've had to order an adaptor, which is on its way.
Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong. I thought it could just be gunked up injectors as it is at about 70000 miles of mostly motorway miles, but obviously it isnt. Any other ideas?
