I've got plywood pieces that I place on the top for a level woodworking area...

I've got 1

Yes ,most definitely and just the right height as well 🤣😂

It’s not a serviceable item as in it’s not included unless there’s a real issue where this sensor could be faulty. Same for the Air flow sensor in the air intake pipe which also should be cleaned

recently bought a 2.4 D5 s60 215 bhp well serviced showing 99.000 miles and 30 mpg on the average trip., one of my first jobs was clean this sensor nothing else then run and see if the mpg improved (Tip clean with EGR spray) and yes 10 mpg improvement and a smooth tick over! then move on to the MAP sensor, all oils done/filters changed the car runs great! well pleased

Where did you find it on V50 d5 ? Mines a facelift

I also have V50 D5 facelift, and I think this sensor is located on intercooler (passenger side). Pain in the ass to get there 😅

And? Any changes?

⁠@@BlazejHollylodzmaybe still driving😅

Hi can you help I have a 2009 v70 d5 awd and I haven't got the boost sensor on the top ..im struggling to find where it is ?

@@deanofranklin2104 did you find it I have a 07 s60 d5

@@HUB1987 yes I found it right down in the front at the bottom of the intercooler below the nearside front headlight ..tricky to pull out ..once removed I was surprised to see that it was very clean .. the problem still persists with loss of power. On the dash the soot filter ⚠️warning message has popped up again see manual .. the cars regen I've tried to drive for about 30mins 3rd gear 2700rpm for about 20 miles to try and clear but hasn't worked .. diagnostics saying faulty maf so bought a new bosch maf and replace but still has intermittent power and loss of power.. seems to drive fine on cold start for about 20mins then the power loss comes in and out on a journey ..I live in rural Wales not near any motorways..checked the swirl flaps and linkage and they all moving fine ,I've also done a egr clean and took the egr valve off and cleaned that as it was a bit clogged up with soot especially the pipe was heavily clogged and cleaned out with egr spray and a pipe cleaner still no difference..checked the dpf boost sensor that was all clean and fine aswel.. frustrating as she drives lovely when the turbo kicks in as when it should . When the power loss happens there is no turbo a hesitation of power and if you give minimal reves you can sometimes feal the power come bake in again as it builds up and the turbo fires again and all is dandy .. putting foot hard to floor just reduces power most of time .. ive serviced it myself new filters all round fuel air oil etc ..I have volvo vida on lap top but I haven't got the cable to interact with the car ,looked on ebay and they about 150 notes at moment .. any advice from you guys would be much appreciated..thanks

@@deanofranklin2104 did you find out what your fault was? I have exactly the same symptoms

@@ivanbrennan9405 yes it was the dpf exhaust that was clogged .. did a delete and all runs well ..ecu remap £300

Noisy under load which engine do you have? i think the d5 with piezo injectors are really refined and the 5pot sounds really good under load.

@@thepunisher955 I have the 215hp D5 engine. Some days it sounds like a tractor 🚜

Hi Mike. Get a Volvo v50 tuning chip off eBay There about £60 I got one for my D5 v50 it massively improved fuel economy and performance. Fit it yourself easily. There excellent 🤘🏻

Does this mean it has made it worse?

@@GerbrandR Yeah definitely made mine worse. It's still well down to this day

Is the fuel consumption actually worse or does the processor in the vehicle engine management system THINK that it has got worse? When your on-board computer suggests a fuel consumption figure it will take in loads of parameters, do some processing work, and throw out a number. It does not count the molecules of fuel passing before a sensor, for example. If your pressure sensor is choked it CANNOT be a bad thing to clean it. You probably has a false reading before and now you know the truth.

@@Crustysmith You make a very good point. Unless he's measuring his fuel at the pumps he won't know

@@Crustysmith i could defiantly be a bad thing to clean it if you damage it while you clean it! the pressure sensor would not be involved in the measurement of fuel injection on a diesel. it uses injector opening time and rail pressure. intake pressure would have no effect on fuel dosing

Yes defintely! :)

🤣 if you don't ask you don't get 🤣

why?

Same question for my XC90 D5 185. From my research, I think that the sensor is located on the intercooler manifold. shop.euroimpex.lt/product_images/00621843_9147690678.jpg?big=1

You'll need a new one, the wire is what takes the reading.

Should be yes:)

both!

I have a 1.6 Drive r design and you might find the injectors are on their way out but fingers crossed it’s not that

I feel sorry for you. Thats a paugeot engine. The drive engine also needs coding just to change batteries..

@@nerothostv no it doesn’t

@@Alexander_l322 Yes it does cus it has the start/stop function

@@nerothostv no it doesn’t. I own one and recently changed the battery. I didn’t need to code it or anything. Stop talking shit

Hi Richard, sorry to hear this, In 2009 they change the design of the engine. I believe your sensor can be found just by thr intercooler, low down, behind the front bumper on the right hand side

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/asxloJto1rjXfp8.html here it is shown on an xc90, it is the same for your car :)

Yes!

On the side of the Intercooler

Yes, it seems to pull harder and is returning about 5mpg more!!

Yep absolutely:)

Yes, I have taken the cover off mine and it's not where this one is in the video.

Probably not, they don't soot as bad

I'm not sure on older cars!

@@drivelife.channel on l.h. side tube with sensor in top.Cleaned!! yet to give it a run. tnx

Great news! Enjoy! 😁😁

Yes. Exactly the same

use egr cleaner

At the output of the intercooler

Yes great result, car feels more responsive and gets better MPG :)

Hey hayden, great to to hear you've got yourself a quality motor there! no question is stupid in my opinion! No I didn't disconnect the battery for this job:)

Dude, much obliged 🙏

Does your engine make an extra noise like knocking? I also own a 2008 d5 and 2 years ago it started a little knocking noise when I push the gas pedal. Two different mechanic couldn't find any problem but this "sewing machine" noise drives me crazy

@@hattorihanzo8549 Mine do not make that noise no. Any other side effects to it besides what you mentioned? Gotten any worse since then?

@@Legalaxe01 It does not cause any other problems. Fuel consumption, performance, acceleration, everything is normal when driving at a constant speed. There is this noise until the car reaches a constant speed, noise is strong when you start driving the car. The exhaust pipes, battery, axles were checked but could not find anything. It only decreases a little when the engine warms up, but still continues. I thought the problem might be about EGR but then mechanics say it would then ignite a fault code. But no fault codes either. Thanks for the response

Hattori Hanzo kzfaq.info/get/bejne/prWZgpB7qK3Ic2Q.html Had the same problem as you are experienceing . Was desperate and then i have changed the top engine hydraulic mount.Cheap part and did it my self. The knock disappeared instantly and also no more vibrations in the steering wheel at idle. The engine mount does not trigger a fault message,but instead it gives strange symptoms that ressemble more like bad injectors,bad valve lifters and pistons. For me it was a 40€ part.Others went to mechanics that didn’t know how to coreectly diagnose this and before getting to the real Volvo mechanic that solved it,they changed injectors,high pressure fuel pump,egr with no result. This hidraylic pillow collapses and the engine touched the frame,so hence the knocking.When you dismantle it you will see marks on there.This is located on the right side of the car,simehow under the coolant reservoir.You can also change the one on the top.It the aluminium one that you can see.It is easy to change and cheap.That is the one responsible with the movement of the engine,back and forth.Counterbalance. Also on the left side of the car there is the one that sits between the chassis and the gearbox.Also hydraulic.Kind of expensive part,tho,but that one does not fail that often. So,begin by changing the first one in the link that i have sent you.You will thank me later !

if it is the five cylinder engine then yes :)

Believe it’s on the intercooler on one side

Tricky to get to but yes, have a look at the right side of the intercooler. (Right as if you're standing in front of the car). Easy to see, not so easy to get the screw back in. Still worth doing as access is a little bit of a pain and most peeps dont bother.

Yep best mates! ;)

or liquimoly diesel intake decarb

Indeed, I wonder how Roz will do?

🤣🤣🤣🤣
