Re: Door locks quit, CEL came on, won’t start now.

the network was interripted and left the SRS code as a telltale.

Re: Chaosrob 1999 v70R 601 save, Going to need a lot of parts, lot of help and do a lot of reading..

Funny enough that you should say this, I just ordered a grill yesterday lol The black marble is fantastic. It’s one of the reasons I’ve kept my GLT so long instead of trying to find a T5. Could always swap it into a T5 of your choosing. However, speaking from personal experience, a GLT car is a very...

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?

I'm running a NAPA battery as well. If I recall correctly, NAPA rates their cold cranking amps differently (0*) from the others (32*), so you have to keep that in mind when comparing brands.

Re: Timing Conversion 1993 to Later Wider Style

You’re seeing a few different fasteners get conflated. On the 850 timing setup there are three distinct things: Hydraulic tensioner body bolts (2x): these fasten the hydraulic unit to the block. They’re M8×1.25 and the torque is 25 N·m (18 ft-lb), then +30° per Volvo. The later/wide-belt lever/stack...

Re: Source for gasket between halves of thermostat housing?

Jrschwit, were you able to remove the old gasket in one piece? If so, lay it on a sheet of new gasket material and lightly spray over it with some spray paint which will leave a ghost image on the new material.

Re: Missing Transmission Bushing (?)

Also there is a rubber bumper (position 37 in the parts catalogue screenshot) which is usually in the spot where the wood now lives.
However the gearbox should not rest on that bumper unless the front and rear engine mounts are seriously flattened.

Re: Missing Transmission Bushing (?)

Interesting, 51 and 31A are suppose to come on the C70 convertibles or maybe even C70 coupe. I installed 51 on the 00 S70 SE Base and was looking for 31A when the car went on non-op from a black ice skid incident damage.
