Another good reason to replace these with with OEM Volvo ones, they come with a hex in the middle of the ball shaft so you can hold it from turning and will last about three times longer than the aftermarket ones.

I have to ask; are you using “brand -X” parts or genuine blue box Volvo parts. Seems to be a very high failure rate.

The buttons, fan rheostat and alarm button are LED's soldered in. The backlighting of the Panel use T4.2 bulbs and are easily replaced. Look up a video for radio removal to get instructions on how to remove all those components for repair or inspection, it's pretty easy and you can have all that stu...

Welcome to MVS, cham. IIRC, the concentrate:water doesn't scale linearly in freeze protection. It's an irregular curve. Meaning 100% concentrate has worse protection than proper mix. Good point Matthew, also the coolant doesn't hold as many BTU's as the water so is less efficient at removing heat.

Jack the car up and see if you can turn the propshaft. If it turns independent of the transmission it will be the collar sleeve or bevel gear splines. You'll have to get all fours off the ground, may also be bevel gear pinion bearing but that will also be evidenced by gear oil leakage where the outp...

These are educated guesses arrived at by reach...

You've got a Craftsman box cutter so you know the value of quality, don't even bother installing those struts, mine had to come out in less than 6 months, additionally if you do install them they may be difficult to remove, it seems the fasteners are only designed for single use........the metallurg...

Any chance it could be something as simple as one of the many heat shields in the firewall/ driveshaft tunnel area making noise at a particular RPM? I've found these can cause problems in the past and mimic sounds like something worse is going on.

Yes you can. The oil pan job is pretty easy and straightforward. Make sure to get all the parts and seals required before you start including anaerobic sealant. I used permatex for the pan to block.
