PSA - 99 V70 AWD drive axles - Check and tighten

If you start getting unexplained engagement of the STC/ABS on a AWD check and verify the drive axle bolts are tight. I found the passenger's side wasn't torqued to spec. I'm unsure if it ever was as no work was performed on it during my ownership. Special thanks to Matty Moo. If I ever require a rep...

Re: Upper engine mount, different style than most write-ups

That is the 99-00 top torque mount. Remove the spark plug cover ( 8 x Torx bolts) as it covers 2 of the bolts. You may have difficulty removing the cover due to the turbo to intercooler pipe. With careful manipulating it can be done. 4 bolts (watch out which positions they come out as they are diffe...

Re: Good vacuum line on a 99 for Chinese Water Torture

Re: Would this 2000 radio trim piece fit my 99 V70?
