Re: XC70 - Will a 2008 side mirror fit a 2007 XC70

If you are talking about the p3 platform then the wiring appears to be very different. https://charm.li/Volvo/2007/XC70%20L5-2.5L%20Turbo%20VIN%2059%20B5254T2/Repair%20and%20Diagnosis/Diagrams/Electrical%20Diagrams/Mirrors/System%20Diagram/ https://charm.li/Volvo/2007/XC70%20L5-2.5L%20Turbo%20VIN%20...

Re: XC70 - Will a 2008 side mirror fit a 2007 XC70

They actually might be. The links i posted do mention the xc90 in them. i would check deeper to see if connectors match and mounting holes.

Re: What have you hauled in your Volvo?

My wagon awaiting an engine had started its life as a window cleaning vehicle. It apparently had a large water tank in the trunk and ladders on it at all times. I used it as a work truck for my job and hauled a full load of tools with a roof top box also full. I’ve put 300 pound HVAC compressors in ...

Re: Throttle stuck on highway

Had this happen on a cold day with my brother quite a few years back. It was stuck near full throttle for a few km before we put it into neutral. That reset the throttle for one reason or another. Never did it again since. However I did have a s70 with a bound throttle linkage due to buildup of rust...

Re: Folding mirrors - 2006 V70 AWD

my 08 S60 had power folding mirrors, apologies i missed this thread. It was a bit of an odd loadout compared to all the ones i saw at the junkyard. I believe the mirrors linked to one of the auxiliary modules, and you can program with VDASH but someone mentioned a pin or something. My current car do...

Re: What is your next Volvo?

My dream car is Volvo S60 first generation from 2007-2008, 2.5T or 2.3T, 2.4T, summum, manual, beige leather interior, spaceball with low mileage and unsual colour willow green metalic :shock: The 2.5T of that gen uses the old engine which was bullet proof over my ownership from 240k km to 300k km.

Re: Folding mirrors - 2006 V70 AWD

It must be a blanking cap/board that sockets into the position. Look at these images from the king thread and my personal car. The mirror fold are in different positions in each.

Re: Rear Brakes not engaging

If you have the wheel off you might as well grease the slider pins on the pistons and check the wear of the pads. Slightly seized pistons will normally wear out one side faster. Fluid will come out of the bleeder regardless, hydraulic force is significant and it will follow path of least resistance....

Re: S70 Transmission Problem

Is it common that transmission shift issues are caused by the TCM or is it failing solenoids on the valve body? Or maybe an even mix of both? I ask because my car has an occasional 2-3 flare that is heavily exasperated by putting the car in park and back into drive without shutting the car off or b...
