One of the Most Outstanding Volvo Cars Ever Sold: Volvo 262C Bertone
Volvo had always enjoyed the reputation of a brand that isn’t afraid of venturing into the unknown. After all, it’s that exploratory spirit that has prompted Volvo to invent some of the revolutionary technologies we’re still using today. All that being said, you’d be hard-pressed to find a person in the early ’80s who would […]
The BMW N63 Engine- From Hot Vee To Hot Garbage
Before getting started I wanted to say I feel bad about calling the BMW N63 ‘hot garbage’. The N63 Twin Turbo 4.4l V8 is a wonder of modern technology, achieving things that no other engine maker was willing to attempt. The manufacturing processes that went into crafting it are exquisite. That says a lot for […]
The Turbocharger Boost Leak – Don’t Panic
Having a boost leak is never good. A minor leak can make your vehicle run rough, misfire, feel down on power, and run rich because the ECU is expecting air that it isn’t getting. Major boost leaks will cause flashing check engine lights (massive misfires) and engine stalls. Whether or not you have a minor […]
Nokian Tires – Where to buy, and why they are the best
Many years ago when the clouds cleared and the heavens sang, the most devote auto enthusiasts heard the word Nokian. Shortly afterwards of course, the clouds gathered once again and hit everyone with what locals to eEuroparts would call a ‘Wicked Nor’easter’ and buried them all in a 20in of wet snow. Fortunately, with Nokian […]
Bizol Technology 5w40 – The Bizol Test Results Are In!
After 9,000 miles, most oils give up the ghost. Even the best synthetics rarely make it to their service interval in good shape, and because there’s nothing like a good oil conversation on the internet, let’s begin! Now, it’s science, but not really. The engine that this oil went into had 181,000 miles on it, […]
Wheel Bearing Tone Ring – Tech Corner
As new cars get more complicated, and more car parts become integrated systems, there are an increasing number of ‘gotchas’ when it comes to putting your car up on jackstands and replacing parts. This is one that results in a phantom ABS check engine light after replacing the wheel bearings, and is not as straightforward […]
Staggered 2017 Video and Photo Gallery is live!
For the third year in a row, the eEuroparts crew packed up and headed to what we can consider our home show. Well, it’s closest anyway, located inside the Big E Fairgrounds just outside of Springfield Massachusetts, and it brings out all the local car guys for most people’s last show of the season. We […]
The (Somewhat) Common Saab T7 Piston Ringland Failure
Back in July, the DRtuned Racing Saab 9-5 racecar experienced a cracked piston failure, that has proven to be a common issue on the T7 engines. You can read up about the start of our journey here. Anyone familiar with the Saab powerplants will recognize the designations of Trionic 5, 7, and 8. The T5 […]
Check out what showed up here for the Fall Finale!
This last Sunday we had the eEuroparts Fall Finale, a small show with a friendly atmosphere here at eEuroparts in Windsor Connecticut. We did this because it was the first year in awhile we didn’t actually have an event on our own soil, so we had to make sure we got something in before the […]
