Title: Hello from Estonia
Post by AhtiH on Feb 2^nd, 2016 at 8:44am

Hi

Been a member for two years already but somehow haven't introduced myself.

I did buy my first Pico (4423 kit) two years ago. Unfortunately I discovered Autonerz two days after the purchase from my local dealer.

Ever since I have been dreaming about Picogroup membership but finally (better later than never) bought my new 4425 kit from Autonerdz yesterday.

It's nice to be a Picogroup member now and hope to learn a lot and give something back also.

I run a small Volvo (cars) workshop being a owner, technician and diagnostician all together.

Regards,
Ahti

Welcome Ahti. Welcome to the global Picogroup. We look forward to working with you and to your future contributions.

Be sure to watch the two power management tutorials in the library so you better understand your new 4425 when it arrives.

Welcome,

Hopefully you will enlighten us with your Volvo experence. Seems more and more shops are not working on these.

Here is an 06 S40 L5 I had this morning With number 1 cylinder issues.

Hi

I have some case studys about Volvo to share. Just have to finish these.

Volvo is a strange car. Here in Estonia most workshops don't want to do these either except basic mechanical repair.

I would like to join group therapy but at this time it's 4am here so I'm not so sure about that at the moment. Did watch last one recording though.

Ahti,

See many Volvo's with this kind of damage?

This is from the RC test image above from way back.

Hi Karl

No I haven't seen this kind of fault. But hey I don't repair these kind of things. If I diagnose compression problem and narrow it down to engine mechanical then I send it away to engine workshop for repair.
