I have an '01 v70 t5 w/77k miles, and a AT that hasn't failed(yet, hehehe)
today i checked the spark plugs to see if any of them were fouled, as I have been driving on a bad Mass Air Flow sensor for about 2-3k miles now.
What I found when disconnecting the air charge pipe was disgusting black sticky tar-like goo that seemed to have oozed along the bottom of the pipe and down into the connecting hose that connects the plastic over-the-engine pipe into the intercooler.
What should I do? replace the air charge plumbing and see if more oozes down? I want to say that because this ooze was so thick, that its not accumulating very quickly. My oil consumtion is near-zero in-between oil changes.
Any ideas or suspicions? I would appreciate anything, voice even your gut feelings, justified or not! Thanks
