Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?
I've parked my laser blue 'R' beside Porsches, Lambos and the like and it often gets more attention. Mathematically proven true : https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0166/4148/products/basic-math-insta_1000x1000.png?v=1621877853 Of course I own a copy of that shirt. And like six other Volvo shirts fr...

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?
Abscate, where'd you get that nice "Got Five?" shirt? Looks like the Alive With Five shirt I got from Blipshift.
And whats that shop with all the Volvos? I'd be impressed by a place which could service that wide range of years.

Re: '99 V70R Silver, 180k, runs & drives. MA/NH border
Sorry I never came by to run the scan for the airbag codes. I've told some local Volvo fans that the Falcon might be for sale but couldn't tempt them into it. I could only buy it after selling my rusty Benz E320, then buying/fixing/selling the 350k mile V70 Geronimo. Listing it on Facebook Marketpla...

Re: Multiple defective aftermarket heater cores
Here are the connections on a Behr / Hella heater core. I bought this from eEuroparts in May 2018 for $120 (it's been on my shelf ever since). FCP now sells Mahle Behr cores for $90 so perhaps they're the same. I measured the inner base of the hole openings with calipers. They slant inward so will a...

Re: Exhaust Leak: At ball joint
The connection between the catalytic converter pipe and center muffler is a terrible design. The Volvo clamps are hard to align and tighten so they make a perfect seal. One solution, especially if part of that connection rusts out, is to have a muffler shop weld the cat and muffler pipes together. B...

How long have you owned a P80 - 850 or S/V/C70
How long have you owned a P80 Volvo; an 850 or S70, V70, C70? As of today, I have owned a 2000 V70 for 20 years. I spent 18 years in "the V70", a Nautic Blue 2000 V70 NA manual, driving it from 50k to 275k miles. In 2009, the engine blew from a failed coolant hose, so I had a used one inst...
