Ethanol production also yields food so maybe padding the pockets of corn producers isn't so bad? Not 100% sure on that one. More research needed. Gasoline containing ethanol WILL burn cleaner. It WILL be less efficient on most engines. It WILL eat at rubber seals and hoses over time without additiv...

I like to ask why they're getting rid of it. If I see a shiny new car in the driveway it is obvious usually, other times it may be because a car has had one problem too many. If they disclose the problems, I'm more likely to buy it as then I know what I'm getting into. When I am told there are no pr...

8ft is not a problem with all the seats down. 10 ft is a bit more difficult. I busted a windshield trying to put a 10ft piece of pipe in my wagon, wasn't paying attention and slammed the lift gate instantly spider cracking my windshield. After that embarrassment I just used the sunroof.

I’m not out to sue anyone. The car saved my life. When it happened nobody believed I just walked away. It took a few days before the hurt started hurting. I was able to drive the car out of the middle of the road, that’s how well made the car is. My post wasn’t about bashing Volvo but only to let th...

I can verify that using a bluetooth OBD-II reader + Android phone + "850 OBD-II" app works rather well at pulling cluster mileage.

FYI for anyone not wanting to shell out the $$$ for a diamond cutting wheel that you may never need again: I did this fix today with just a standard Dremel cutoff disc, one of the thicker ones. In the case of my V70 the key wouldn't return back to position zero, so it was stuck in the tumbler. I cou...
