Hi just picked up my first Volvo ever. We had an 850 in the past but that was before I could drive. Well now I picked up a 1996 T 850. The mechanic said there's a slow leak from the turbo. Just wondering whether I should leave it alone or have it fixed cause it'll lead to other serious problems.

Car has like no mileage on it for its age, again 1996 car with 130,000 kms on it. Any advice, or direction where I can do more research would be really appreciated

Thanks

 

No matter how small it is get it fixed. Small things can lead to big things and big problems.

 

What kind of leak?

 

i have an 02 S40 and i had the same problem. just bring it to a mechanic and have it patched up. Also u can leave it alone but u would just lose the performance and you would might a gasoline smell inside your car until u get it fix. the worst it will cost you is about 65 bucks, cuz thats what it costed me

 

Yes i certainly agree.. Even like an eye of a needle it would turn big. So it is better if you check with auto technician to make things right.

 

yeah i agree, no matter how small it is, you should get it fixed.. its either you can have your volvo parts changed or get it patched up, Depoxi Steel is very useful when it comes to leakage, try it.
