Re: oil catchcan
The oil could be coming from anywhere. You're gonna have to look all around the engine bay to find it. If the engine is really gross you may need to clean it so you can find fresh oil. A clogged PCV system can force oil from any crankcase seals such as the oil cap, cam seals, oil dipstick, turbo lin...

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?
Since you guys like driving footage. Here is my daily drive to school when I lived on st Kitts in the carribean a few years ago. Footage is not nearly as steady but it is relaxing.

Re: Wearing out the welcome mat - tranny drain plug
In my case I wanted to change all 200k miles worth of fluid in one session rather than drain 2 or 3 quarts every 100 miles or so. I would rather spend a couple hours now standing upright vs putting the car on ramps every weekend until I'm confident all the fluid is changed. Also I feel I get a more ...

When I was done, and I did not add back more than I ...

I de soldered mine and then plugged it in to see which wires had to be shorted to make the lights come on. The slider has 3 wires. Pl...

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?
I bought it thinking it was 76K miles, but after buying it, it was apparent the odometer didn't work. It actually has 88K miles on it, and I've probably put 1000 of that on it myself. 11K miles higher than I expected isn't too bad. Is there any way to advance the odometer to show the correct mileag...

Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?
My radiator would only leak when hot. It was leaking around the plastic/aluminum crimp. It took a while to find that one. My clue was the lack of pressure in the system.
