Re: 98 XC BAD fuel mileage, need help
Your car is not rated 17/26 mpg that is for a front wheel drive 2.4L equipped car. Here are some screenshots of the EPA gas mileage for the 2.4 FWD which is not your car and the 2.3 and 2.4 AWD of which one is your car. I owned a new 98 V70 XC 2.3L and it was no gas miser. That was never the point o...

Re: Hey Everyone
As much as I would love to say MVS saved my car somehow, that wouldn't be the case for me. MVS has been a fun place to interact with other Volvo enthusiasts and most of all I have learned so much reading about other people's problems with their repair that fixed the problem. And no post about MVS wo...

Re: The Great Lighting Mystery
The headlight options are programmed in the computer. For example my 2004 S80 came with daytime running lights which I hated. The manual said the service department would reprogram the computer to disable them upon customer request. Well it took me 15 years to get them shut off. Apparently the deale...

Re: The Great Lighting Mystery
Very interesting and thorough answer! Thank you June! 😃 Is there another way to access those settings, without involving a dealer? From what I understand the main dealer VIDA has more to it than the consumer version. Originally for the 2004 the customer indicated what they wanted and a software upl...

Re: my 2002 S 80 engine surged
The service records and the back of the car say T 5, but the window sticker says "75th Anniversary Edition 2002 S 80 T6" My 2002 S80 T6 was a Anniversary edition. The few anniversary editions made were all 2.9 Twin Turbo equipped. It is a real shame if the insurance company totaled it. I ...

Re: C70 sad story
Cold water in a overheating aluminum engine = TRASHED engine especially with a metallic pop sound and immediately misfiring. I would not waste money fooling around with the engine unless you put a complete used unit in. Sure a old American V8 with cast iron block and heads likely would survive cold ...

Re: 2003 XC70 Blown Head Gasket Symptoms
After my daughter's 07 C70 2.5T blew the upper hose assembly it had a blown head gasket. The car had your exact symptoms, misfire codes, over pressure in coolant system, no steam out exhaust, no coolant in oil. But the head gasket had blown and failed the combustion gas test in the coolant system. Y...

Re: Where to get fuel injector rebuild at fair price
Here are screenshots of the new Bosch injectors for my car as a example. Not sure all the particulars of your 4 cylinder so you will need to do some internet shopping. June

Re: Fuel pump has a crack, which replacement?
My 2004 S80 had the recall performed in 2016 for the fuel smell from a cracked pump. Not sure how recalls work in Germany, but my pump was replaced free of charge here in the States. Free is always better! Would not hurt to check your VIN # June
