Re: 3D Printed Tape Player Repair

Do you plan to publish the gear model? It might be useful for other people as well.

I personally like Printables ( https://www.printables.com ) and have published my models there.

Re: 2013 XC-60 Steering rack centering

The directional is triggered by the angle sensor that does have a true center. That was one of the hurdles. The column has 6 points that can act as TDC. The only thing that can be adjusted to rectify the fixed mounting points is the pinion. I was extremely hesitant to even attempt going the route I ...

Volvo Polar Bear

Unsure where to post this but as it's for my 850 I thought here would be an appropriate place. I found a genuine Volvo Polar Bear for sale and decided to purchase it to go into the 850 at car shows, I've never seen one before and wondered if anyone here knows when they were sold by Volvo Polar1.jpg ...

Re: Let's play Name That Car

Yes, early Saab. The photo I posted said 1946, but that's so soon after WWII that I don't believe it... at least for a production car. Good work spotting it as a Saab you two. This article seems to say actual production began in '49. https://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/15/automobiles/collectibles/15saa...

Re: Sales, discounts, and obscure parts direct from Volvo

I was disappointed to find the discount is only for parts in current stock. I need a $500 window switch. Interesting, I've gotten the discount on parts which needed to be ordered. The website let me place the order through the local dealership, but the dealership called and said the part would take...
