Hi Folks,

I'm half way through changing the O rings in the oil pan using the instructions placed on here by tech. (due to low oil pressure message at low rpms)

I bought the O ring kit from Volvo and it came with these gaskets. What in the world are they for?? I found the 5 O rings I need to replace but have no idea where the 4 gaskets go that were included in the kit. I got the pan off right now, so I was wondering if anyone has any idea before I put it all back together again? Tech?

 

Is your car a turbo car?
The kit is a kit for all 5 and 6 cylinder motors.
The gaskets are for replacing the turbo return line o-ring and gasket.
The gaskets are only used for that.

If it is a Non-turbo it will only use 3 o-rings and that's all.
It will use the pick up tube one and the 2 for the oil pan.

 

Cool! That explains that. I shall replace the Oil Pan right now then.

The O rings were indeed brittle and just fell off when I removed the pipes. Hopefully, this will do it.

Thanks Tech.

 

You should be fine after it is all together.

 

everything seems to be working fine now. Oil pressure problem is gone.

 

Congrats glad all is good now.
