No, it only happens when the car's running. I know what you're talking about, though, another S70 we had did that thing with the headlight wiper motor years ago. I appreciate your prompt reply.

How were you driving the car before shut down when it happens? What you describe is rather odd. Valve stem seals would be consistent leakers and smoke once you start it up after sitting. This is not what you describe. I know with two of my none Volvos if I move them and don’t drive them (on under a ...

If it’s a model year 2000 the fuel line is metal one piece and is under 50 psi pressure.

Good fuel line with oetiker clamps might hold it, it will be messy cutting the line with gas everywhere unless you can squeeze off the gas line in the back of the car.

If you get rid of the hose clamps for stainless steel Oetikers, Andy then protect it with some heat shrink. It will last the rest of the car life. Pex fittings for home plumbing, which are Oetiker type, are tested at 100 psi, twice the operating pressure of your system. Add a inspection protocol to ...

Thank you for the quick reply. Agreed, the Gates belts are great but the water pump is terrible. I got lucky it was making the noise and found the small leak. Since it only had 40k miles I didn't think that was the issue. I already purchased a new Aisin and I'll go with Continental for the rest as y...

Did you check the abs sensors on the front wheels? The cables run close to sway bar link so maybe it has damaged the wires. Also is the outer cv boot has split, grease may have got onto the reluctor ring blocking the sensor.

I am having a more extreme version of this problem, documented in this thread . Carefully and completely clean each tooth of both reluctor rings and that should stop the ABS engagement while coasting. I bet there's grease in one so the car is getting a bad read on how fast that wheel is spinning. I ...
