Hey guys and gals I don't really post much and tend to be a a lurker just reading all I can on a subject til i feel ready to tackle the job I've been researching. In the past I've been very timid about buying cars with automatic transmissions because of their complexity to repair and instead choosin...

Nice Job on the resonator delete job Pete!
Almost exactly what i did and I agree with you 100%,,, exhaust note turns brilliant @ 3000rpm B5244S!
I highly recommend!!

The original rear caliper protectors on my S70 AWD were getting pretty sad,, meaning pretting friggin rusty! You know when they're so rusty that they really have no integrity left and should be tossed? Yeah that rusty. So I had a little some spare time and 304 stainless so i whipped up a couple new ...

Great detail in this response!

If the car seems to be in good control in turns when experiencing rough or uneven pavement that's a good sign they're still doing the job they were intended for. But that upper bearing will get stiff and start making noise over time and could definitely use lubrication. Plus if you're in the rust be...

I was having intermittent no start after running my 2002 S60 base so I tracked it down to no fuel pump activation after a long drive or when hot. I noticed other members having similar issues with CEM after it get warm. Most diagnostic procedures say to warm CEM with a hair drier to re create hot CE...

Yeah you're right Brody, I'm sure the CEM will need a re build if things get any worse and I totally expect it will but til then I'll be using the 'ole toggle switch when needed. Like today, I made a stop after work and sure enough it happened again but just did the toggle trick and I get home on ti...

Hey Exkodaker
I use any type fluid nothing changes. Sounds like the U joint on the steering shaft is getting tight, about $80. plus labor, seen it plenty with my Volvo fleet.

Did you say you checked fuel pressure? You can hear fuel pump cycle when you turn key to position 2?
I don't think 2001 had PEM, just old style FPR. I may be wrong on that though.

Fuel Pressure Regulator just bypasses extra pressure back to the tank. Nothing real fancy but it works, where as then PEM varies the speed of the pump to match engine needs at different loads. So I would start by listening for the pump to cycle at key position 2. It will only do that for half a seco...
