Re: Crankshaft Position Sensor Trouble

There are two different Crankshaft Position Sensors. Which one is correct depends on your Chassis number (Last six digits of the VIN number).

Chassis numbers up to and including 92351: Volvo part number 31331754.
Chassis numbers 92352 and higher: Volvo part number 31331765.

Friendly reminder to avoid Lemforder/Chinese strut top bearing mounts/plates

Hi everyone. I just wanted to share my most recent experience with these extremely low lifespan units. I bought a small pile of the Lemforder's a while back.

Re: What did you do to your P2 Volvo today?

What made the rears difficult? Is there room for tools? . Barely any room and you'll need to remove the bracket bolt to provide more room. The (Yellow Line) is the space you have to work with.

Looks like most if not all the scratches are in the clear coat. Clear coat can be sanded with 600+ wet and dry. Then a new clear coat applied.

Re: DIY: Oil Pan/Sump O-Ring Replacement 2000 XC

Re: Front Strut replacement recommendations and gotchas?

I would also add no matter what strut route you take, wrap the outer cv axle boot in cardboard during installation, it can get torn very easily. Good Luck.

Re: 2004 XC70 oil pan condition

For a car with 191k that pan looks very good. If you have not put the pan back on use some grease to hold the o-rings in place (put it in the fridge or freezer if it is too thin) and make sure you use anaerobic sealant and not RTV.
