Using your hand to check the temperature isn't exactly accurate though, it only takes a few degrees for something to go from bareably warm to extremely hot to the touch.
I'm breaking my S40, some bits for sale on eBay.
I know this is primarily a Renault forum but I know a fair few are Volvo fans too. Engine has sold, but most other bits remain including some performance parts.
Everything currently listed can be found here...
Remember you need to give the network advance notice you are going abroad so they can switch you on. By default roaming is disabled on most contracts unless you ask.
This will happen often if you don't run clean water through it at the end of each use. Take the bottle off and run water through it until it runs clear and you shouldn't have this trouble.
As has been said, strip it to the gauze and soak that in descaler overnight and it will be fine.
Maybe it's just the video, but it sounds a bit 'diesel' to me. Next time you're doing something like this give me a shout and I'll come have a listen.
Off topic but I'm getting my car back tomorrow! Time to strip it! (Not sure how yet, it's not like I can do much of it!)
Old skool chipping - I like.

Slightly over budget, but if you shop around you'll get it cheaper. It's worth the extra over the c110 & c120 for the extra pressure and the upgraded patio cleaner is much better than the standard one.
So you think a driver getting into a car makes it less powerful?
It may reduce the power to weight ratio, but the power at the wheels/flywheel remains the same.
