Hi,

I i have just got off the phone with a local volvo dealer with regards to getting a spigot bearing for a 1.7 engine and apprently there are two types.
I believe one was pre 84'

I am correct in assuming its the later one i need for my 16v renault motor?

Probably a local bearing shop can get the right one. Take the old one with you or the sizes

What type is the spigot bearing in a 1.7? is it a proper roller bearing or is it a bronze bush?
