Firstly, wrong forum, here is for s40/v50 04 on. Secondly sounds like you have an oil burning problem under load, poss turbo. Paul.

thanks, typical, first post and got it wrong, how do I switch the post to the s40 v40 classic model thread? or do I need to re write and post it again? the Turbo was off a few months ago and seemed to be ok tight good impellars, and play in the shaft, but yes I am definately burning oil, a fair bit of it, but this isn't reflected in the performance at all, thats why I am querying if it could be anything not so major as rings for example.. pml
