Most likely, yes, but I think it will be a nightmare to keep it perpendicular to the head. Not unlikely you'll launch a couple of springs to outer space and make a couple of head scars. In general, you do not want to use cheap tools to service expensive or hard to access parts. Here's me using OTC 4...

Honestly, I haven't had many chores with malfunctioning electronics. It was usually more helpful in diagnosing problems than being a problem. But general reliability is not what I was expected. My 2005 w/ 270k miles has only original fuel pump and about 15 original rear subframe bushings.

I busted $35k in parts and maintenance on my XC70 since 2012. Third of that could be ignored or deferred if you're not up to keeping it perfect, but still it's a lot. Wife's 2016 XC60 T5 (last year of P3) we bought new was a disaster. SPAs are too flimsy and glamorous. No more new Volvos in my famil...

I have two sets of lugs, one is permanently submerged in PB Blaster. When the car lugs get rusty, I swap them. PB Blaster lifts rust if given enough time.

Throw in a couple of o-rings 8638585. They are intended for early years S80, which had a clunk in subframe, but I bet occasional clunks in my V70 was the same problem. I've added these o-rings and the clunk never returned. Also put these o-rings in my XC70, just in case. And, yeah, it has a new subf...

Between frame and subframe, around bushing.

Here's the picture:

Question - Is wiggling the subframe around changing the alignment? Or when you do them one at a time it doesn’t move? With only one rear bolt loose, the subframe shouldn't move much. Because of the alignment pin on the driver side (can see it in picture above), the subframe needs to lower quite a b...

It would fit without wiper motors/arms.

You guys better work on your turbo and downpipe setups! Wind noise, huh... All I can hear on highway is: WRRRRRRR-PSHHHHHH!
