What Pump did you use ? XC90 t6
@@CasaOsso I used the mondeo pump to get it all going at first
I've watched all your videos, and they deserve more views. The lack of visibility may be due to insufficient SEO; your descriptions are too short and unappealing, and your thumbnails could also be more attractive. Additionally, you're not using any tags or keywords, making it hard for people to find your videos in search results, which leads to low views. I’m a UA-camr and SEO expert, and I can help improve this situation and elevate your channel. If you’d like to know more, please share your contact information, and we can connect.
Keen to come through and help if you ever need broskie!
just curious why you didnt want to spray brake clean in the diff
@@AndrewRzymski really just cause I was worried it could contaminate the oil or mess up the seals on the prop flange side
Just wanted to say that you're really inspiring. I don't know what impresses me more, your knowledge and abilities or the fact you do it under a gazebo or in a well used family garage. Kudos!
Good to see your content back!
Hi Matt, I'd love to get in contact and discuss some things with you as I currently have one. love the work, ken
@@TheBikerken hey mate, sure no problem at all. You on any of the mondeo or ford FB groups? As I post all over haha
@saffaengineering5721 appears I've found you on FB and have messaged
Hope you got a big ugga dugga machine to take those fly wheel bolts with locktite off. Nice work Mat.
I have to check mine hoses because I’m loosing coolant… not too much but have to top it up once in a longer while…
very subtle indeed
Thanks for your inspiring series. Bumper is very cool. If youre looking for ideas, check out rocket anti lag. Prodrive had it for a while on Subaru WRC cars before it was banned by the FIA.
it looks great mate
Looking good China, we must catch up sometime boet. Much love
Looking awesome mate bring on officially gassed 😁
Hi To remove the intercooler, do you have to remove the front bumper?
With the standard and the airtec intercoolers you dont, you just pull off the bottom trays to get access. I may have to in order to remove the one I am installing, but hopefully not!
What a project m8! Good job, nice to see 🎉👍👍
Awesome stuff Matt, wasn't expecting that sort of power out of the stock turbo 😮 definitely on my shopping list when you get it sorted!
Awesome mate looking forward to what it does with the big turbo
Good to you posting again man! Love the content.
How you been man? Didn't get to say goodbye when you left
Awsome About time some were did an ecu for are cars. Game changer. Ares run totally different to a focus st/rs and it anoys me
Fantastic! Glad ya back n congratulations on the bubby.
@@bradleysearle7821 all good my side man, hit me up on FB or something!
Hey man, discovered your video series yesterday after searching the 2.5t Facebook group for 4wd mondeo conversions. Someone linked your video series. I have a question, what does a stock xc60 do in terms of moving fuel from one side of the tank to the other? Wondering why you needed to deal with this yourself. Cheers
Hey mate! At this stage I wasn't sure how the xc60 did it as there's no documentation anywhere. Turns out there's a venturi system on the xc60 piping, so it self circulates. I didn't work this out till later in the build. There's going to be a new round of videos in the new year, as I've been working away on a few things
@saffaengineering5721 hey, thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Look forward to the new episodes, it's something I've been toying with for some time. Guessing from peeking ahead, it's been a labour of love!?
@salohcinnosnah6379 yeah it's a long term project, not going anywhere. I've got some goals I want to achieve with it this coming year, so if all goes to plan it should get quite exciting
Are the shafts from an xc70 or xc60 mate?
Xc70 fits best mate, must be post 2014, so P3 volvo
wht steering wheel is that?
Its a custom trimmed one, the guys have unfortunately stopped making them now though
With the battery now in the boot you could install a water/air intercooler setup like a mk1 focus rs!
Im going to see what I can fit when I've got the big turbo in!
Cut a slot in the mdf base to go over the spare wheel bracket?
I don't think it'd work out as it'd need to be quite a big slot to account for movement... But I think I have a plan!
What full synthetic oil you running? Maybe next time instead of pouring out of the large container, decant into a smaller more manageable container with the correct amount of oil in. Just a thought. Keep up the good work.
That sounds like way too much effort and fore thought 🤣 thanks bud!
Great video, we all have those niggly things that get in the way of going for a drive. Fair play to you, just getting the seals stripped out and refreshed. Looking forward to see how the new engine is. 👍
Nice one Mat. That's a lot of work by yourself. Well done man.
Nice job, mate! What kind of Millers Oils do you use?
Thanks!! It's just some miller's break in oil, unfortunately where I live there's not a good local supply of miller's, so don't use it often
Be good to see the mondeo on OG battles when its all done
Exciting times mate
Good to see you back looking forward to the next one
Where did you get those hood struts mate?
Dark ice design
From episode to episode this is just an amazing work to watch. Thank you.
I have this for a year by now on my watchlist. I've just started watching. Looking forward on all episodes to see.
savage car mate!
Nice!! Glad you got it done buddy! Great work as always!!
Keep up the good work buddy!! These things are sent to try us as they say lol. You will get there In the end! Love watching these vids!
Hope you get to the bottom of it and back upto full fitness soon mate
Mate you have much more patience than I have, hope you get to the bottom of it soon!
Ah its doing my head in! But I'm slowly ticking off boxes of possibilities.... I'm learning a lot too along the way. I at least know now the pump is good for sure, just got to double check everything else now haha
What mods have you done to get it to high 4s? apart from 4wd obviously haha
It's all listed in the first vid I think.... Full bolt ons, cams and hybrid turbo and the main bits
Looks like u left befor the green light
It's just the app... Can go when you like as it starts on movement... New PBs coming soon tho 😉
I’ve just noticed something. If you look at the mondeo subframe. There are two indents on top of the centre bar. I’ll lay money that if you measure. Those two indents will line perfectly to the xc60 diff bushes.
Yeah its as if they are made on the same production line, then split off before the bushes are welded in and the other forward mounting point being threaded
Matt G be interesting to see how close a mondeo subframe could get. Are the side bars higher to allow for half shafts or are they both the same?
@@phoenyxrises2162 yeah they look identical in all other respects
I think she liked it Matt, she'll be stealing the keys 😂🤣
Done a fantastic job been following it from start! Well done buddy looks like it has all come together well with the smiles!👍🏼
120kph 😎

@@saffaengineering5721 just wanted to make sure any policemen watching knew 😂😂
