Re: 1999 V70 emissions fail for "not ready" status

Thank you for looking and offering advise. Whether it was the CRC additive or time or a combination we will never know but the cat became ready 1578 miles after the new battery was installed. 880 miles after additive put in tank. EVAP still not set. Two runs of my version of the Drive Cycle were com...

Re: 99 V70 turns over, no start

The issue is resolved…..at least for now. Our car is a Denso NA so Abscate’s data jibed perfectly with our experience. Two starts with IMMEDIATE stalls. Less than 1 sec, which as Ozark Lee pointed out in a post I saw somewhere is significant. Then the crank no start the next morning. So this morning...

Re: SRS Light - two part question, SRS Reader and what can be done

IMG_1708.jpeg IMG_1708.jpeg So the SRS light is gone. After VIDA telling me SRS module was not responding I chased through the wiring in the console to the Module and found appropriate values on all wires associated with communication. I was told VIDA with the Mongoose JLR cable would do but it was...

Re: Everyone hug, kiss, call, text, IM, PM, Em, your Mom today...and post here

My Mom passed peacefully this past February. I became acutely aware I had not called, hugged, or told her how much I loved her enough. Of course you never can….but. My sincerest sympathies for the loss of this very special person and may the grieving be tempered by the joy that comes from the memori...

Re: 99 v70 radiator replacement.

I’m afraid it’s siting where it needs to live. The top tabs on the radiator for the fan shroud bolts are tight to the fan shroud as well. It is what it is. Ineffectual junk I’d say. The pictures of the Nissens I’ve viewed, (carefully as I can in the ad postings) seem to show the finned core part of ...

Re: 99 v70 radiator replacement.

Thanks for the response’s guys. Was glad to see Chrafael’s photo of a proper fit, I ordered a Nissens from FCP Monday and it due here today.

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

So, so, so, sorry abscate! And thankful for the Volvo armor. These cars are far from inanimate objects, which is why many bestow them with names. I pat mine frequently and promise her continued good care in the hope that she’d care for me as Shagg cared for you. Hope the “fleet” offers some support ...

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

Sorry for the repost then. Saw some of the build videos. Definitely effective clickbait.

Re: my volvo 850se journal

Good job of it on those bushes Duke. The winches sound safer than swinging a 12lb sledgehammer or whatever that technique was about.

Also glad you got to enjoy your car at the track. You’ve showered her with a lot a attention I’ve noted and you both deserve a good time.
