Re: 2005 V70 NA M56 rear brake light bulb 989757, rear speaker removal problem
I pull the red tab loose or out and then reach through the metal cutout hole to push the latching hook down. That piece of plastic on the outside of the speaker is almost useless for getting the hook on the other side of the speaker to move. You just have to feel where to push while reaching through...

Re: s60 2001 piston ring gap needed
Thank you for the information! I am ordering the 240 grit Flex-Hone and will report back the results. I forgot to write that I searched through VIDA for this info on all the available 5-cylinder Volvos in the 2014 release. I am surprised the engine information for bearing and piston sizes are stampe...

Re: 06 xc70. Gas pump shuts off
The P2 Volvos have the EPA mandated fuel system leak detection and Onboard Refuelling Vapor Recovery (ORVR). P80 vehicles didn't have either of these systems. The company I used to work for supplied the vapor vent valves for the stainless steel Volvo fuel tank version that was used to pass the Calif...

Re: Air cleaner boxes '04 V70, 2.4 N/A
That is an activated carbon filter for catching hydrocarbons from the intake manifold trying to escape and cause an evaporative emissions test failure on PZEV certified Volvos. It helped the entire vehicle pass the very strict PZEV SHED emissions testing. The last squirts of fuel from the fuel injec...

Re: Leak from fuel tank when filling up!
Cutting fuel system access holes is a risky modification. Some fuel tanks used to be located inside the trunk area of cars (Mustang, Jaguar, Mercedes) and during extremely strong rear impacts, the fuel tank would be crushed and spray the interior of the vehicle. Many car companies run a non-regulato...

Re: Stuck Rear seat seatbelts on 2007 XC70. Fixable?
The plastic covers come off the top of the back seat but it is very easy to crack and damage these covers. Once the end covers have been removed, you will be able to see the seat belt spools and blow them clean with compressed air. I tried to find instructions and pictures in Vida/Dice and found not...

Re: 04 S60 steering column u joint repair/lubrication/how too?
I have removed the #13 steering shaft by hitting it from under the car with a long shaft pressing on the bottom of the flange with bolt #15 completely removed. After enough pounding the shaft just pops off. Always use plenty of anti-seize on the replacement parts because of the dissimilar materials ...
