Re: I just created an MVS Facebook Group

Please dont abandon the forum! I dont have Facebook and I'll never use it again. I agree.

I'm not talking about just any group, I'm talking about all of them and I'm n...

The clips or tabs or whatever hold the corner lights on my 98 R must be broken, lol. They're flimsy and ones tapes on. Haha. I like the looks of yours!

What headlights do you have?
Probably, they break all the time!

They're factory "jewel" headlights out of a 2004 C70.

Re: I just created an MVS Facebook Group

No coincidence. I'm approving new members when I go there and see requests. 168 now. This forum will not suffer because of this new FB group. So far, the group requires almost no time. If it does start to require my time, I'll appoint moderators to police it. It'll be a net gain. I'll cross-polinate...

Re: Rotor size question.

1998 R should have 280mm up front. I don't think the R got 302mm front rotors until 1999 or 2000.

Mine will only open about 2 or 3 inches, then hits something or jambs. I think I need a drank.

Re: 99 V70 R rough idle after warm up and stalls

That looks like cold running condensate , not coolant

Pull the dipstick and look for chocolate milkshake vs brown or black oil.

Re: V70 LED Headlights Conversion

I converted my halogen bulbs to LEDs for both low and high beams using stock wiring. I happen to have found a great pair of aftermarket headlamps from the local PnP that had shiny reflectors, clear lenses and decent beam cutoff. I never have anyone flash me for blinding them when using my low beams....

Re: Turbo leaking.

Looks like your oil cooler line is leaking. FCP has a pretty good deal on a genuine replacement kit, or you can get the hose individually to save some money. I wouldn't recommend going non-OE though. https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/volvo-engine-oil-cooler-hose-replacement-kit-850-c70-s70-v70-oem-pa...
