Re: Interior vinyl paint colors light beige and beige
Just get it matched at Home Depot, about $6, you don't need spray. Get the best paint they have, Behr Marquee in the sample size. I used a cleaned rear seat base and the match was perfect. To match sand for plastic covering in an S60, I cleaned up one of the door sill trim pieces to use as the match...

Re: Early Spring Drive to a Forest Service Cabin
That's great. I love that part of the country.
I was not too far from there last December on a solo trip in my '04 XC, and I did drive that highway last June on another trip. I for one do enjoy the pics.

Re: 120K 3.2 R transmission fluid change?
You should change it, and you should change it all out. That's fairly easy to do via the hard cooler lines where they attach to the radiator. Pop one off, pump out 3 qts. Add 3 qts. Repeat two or three more times. After establishing a baseline of clean fluid, do a partial swap (drain/fill 3qts) ever...

Re: Simple question; is there a simple answer?
1) If you can get 80w-90, it will be a little more robust than 75w-90. However, the 75w-90 will work. It's the same concept as motor oil - get the narrowest viscosity spread that suits your climate/application. Apples-to-apples, an 80w-90 will be more robust and last a bit longer in the same way a 1...

Re: Simple question; is there a simple answer?
In both cases there is only a fill plug and no drain plug. I had to use a pump to suction out the oils and refill. Neil. Yeah, it's a pain. There are how-tows out there on how to add a drain plug. I don't recommend it. This past summer I got inspired and I drilled and tapped a drain plug into the f...

Re: Simple question; is there a simple answer?
What is the construction of the rear drive differential? Is it a limited slip differential? I don't have enough experience looking at the printout to know the difference. The part I marked from the diagram above in red is a Pos-Trac LSD differential (that is what caught my eye). The parts I marked ...

Re: Late P80 power steering fluid - Not listed on parts sites?
Turns out that the 202 is compatible with the olde CF11S. My mechanic buddy sent me a note on it. So I already have a liter I bought by 'accident' of 202 recently. So that will work just fine. Also Volvo of Toronto are not allowed to ship fluids like this so I would be at the mercy of the local dea...

Re: Transmission cooler flush
. Interesting that the ReMan requires a radiator bypass in order to honor the warranty. The brackets were too much work and not necessary. . OP, I agree w/him; I have found the complicated brackets unnecessary and the “zip tie” ones adequate. I’ve put a few trans coolers in different vehicles of mi...

Re: Who here has been inside a late P80 hatch latch? Latchectomy in progress…
Actually, I think I’ve got it. I found this post at SS where someone did this before and helpfully documented it. https://www.swedespeed.com/threads/v70-tailgate-open-sensor.620245/?post_id=7907521#post-7907521 I JB welded the spring post piece on that corner of the latch; it fit correctly, and shou...
