Re: UPdate2: 99 s70 silver awd turbo auto for PARTS ONLY, Antlers OK

What is yalls input on the mechanical issues based on the video I provided That timing belt walk may be from a wonky water pump or idler/tensioner.

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

Yuck.JPG But on the positive side of the equation, my luck held again, I still haven't had to drill one out - but this one was a near thing. IMG_0320.JPG All the usual tricks at first, days went by, and finally an emulsion of ac...

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

I put a new plate on the 850, as I wanted one of the new design. I then I put new Hella "50% brighter" bulbs in the S70, as the lights are terrible due to aiming after the frontend was smashed by the previous owner. Hopefully they'll be a little bit better. I looked at each bulb I removed...

He has the front of the car apart so should be able to see the label, anyway. Try PM'ing, he responded pretty quickly to me about a couple things.

Re: tailgate latch or catch

Greetings all!! Is this a latch issue or a catch issue? Or is it that the two parts are not compatible? I read in older posts that there was a change in the latch dependent upon the engine/chassis number. ... Any suggestions on how I might solve this problem before the tailgate glass pops out (or s...

Re: UPdate2: 99 s70 silver awd turbo auto for PARTS ONLY, Antlers OK

Abscate I've ran into a hexa problem also known as the Allan screws that join shaft to rear differential. I tried a 6mm too big. 5.5mm to small. 1/4" too big. Next one down too small. Will you accept it if I cut the shaft close to the diff? Someone is bound to have the right tool. My suggestio...

Re: Volvo Findings! (What have you found on Craigslist?)

Just too many to save! I've noticed price drops on many of the long time for sale cars. Still a long way from realistic, maybe in another year? The S70 has nice wheels, it is just the rest of it that is an issue..........! :shock: :lol: That 'R' is a nice low mileage one. I wonder if the rubber com...
