SBS9424C de-registered
-
this afternoon one service 88 BC told me that SBS9424C has been de-registered for parts and the engine is damaged beyond repair. is this true? why can't they buy a new engine and install into the bus?
and the BC also told me that the DD which bang into SBS 9424C might also be de-registered. the damage is not so serious leh.... why must de-register?
-
i thought SBS9424C finished repairing liao? i remember someone posted a pic of the bus in SBST livery in AMDEP?

Need to check LTA, at last check, the bus was sitting in amdep with a new rear but without aircon, the rear did not have any vents for the aircon yet. However, bus has Mas Selamat poster on door.
EDIT: Dint see my@jas's post.....sad case...

it looks bad haha. cos the engine is at the back. you cant possibly buy a new engine to replace an old one. it would cost a bomb.

maybe radiator beyond repair? think about the impact that made 9424 lyk that...anyway radiators for all LO3x and VO3x are in front. that's why the front always so noisy

I think the engine is no longer in production in any case.

D10A-245 think is no longer in production...now no more 10L buses. all is either 7L or 9L. unless SBST kee siao wanna get D9A which i think is impossible.

They no longer market the D10A-245, but I do believe that parts for the D10A-245 or even the D10A-245 is still in limited production. If not how do you expect that few thousands Volvo Olympians around the world running on Volvo engines to run when they usually need an engine refurbishment every 1.5 to 3 years.

it seems like 9424 is intact wor. i think they decided to donate the bus cos its quite dum to do something so nicely and at the end dismantle the parts for other buses or to go for scrapping. maybe the engine very weak in performance now due to the accident. keke.

then we will be seeing a VO3X that runs at B9 speed.... =) -
Volvo Olympian 3 Axle (SBS9425AE), unladen weight 14200kg, Volvo B9TL (SBS7483U) unladen weight 15800kg, shockingly, there is one ton difference.
SBS9424C is really de-registered already. Sad case... Might have a reason like spare parts so they have to de-register it.

I was thinking the total opposite. The rear where most of the components are is a total wreck. -
Eh, nobody bothers to read the comments in the redeployment thread?

I did. And its a high chance it will become a reality. The only problem is where is it going to park. -
