Re: What did you do to your P2 Volvo today?

Put Falken Winterpeak F1-Ice on my wife Nissan Rogue last Fall and they were excellent on snow and ice. A little noisy but that is most winter tires as I understand.

Re: Save my baby

Holy Cow, you guys are great! Maybe I have some hope after all. I sure don't have any disposable cash like $1,100 right now. abscate, you are correct in that this mechanic does have one of those cameras (Borescope) you spoke of.

Re: DIY: 1998 S70 GLT Ignition Tumbler FREE Fix!

This post keeps giving. Key wouldn't turn tonight on new to me 05 XC90 with 190k miles. With a little bit of contact cleaner on the key it finally turned. Thinking tumblers are sticky.

Re: 01 S60 brake pedal randomly pushes back

If safe for you to do, check the wheel speed sensors while driving with your VIDA. On my new to me 05 XC90 I had bad sensor, easy to diagnose on my scan tool.

Re: 2018 S60: What is this?

Maybe fits onto the driver door?
