    Does anyone know where I'll be able to get rid of a dead 9-5? The engine's most probably beyond economic repair (timing chain gone and who knows what else).

    The external temp sensor went on my 9-3. I contacted the usual second hand breakers, to be quoted between £15-£20 plus VAT for a second hand unit.
