Re: Stuck in Park

Re: Slight vibration when driving fast and going up hill.
In my case, it turned out to be cheap tires. I was running Starfire tires, balanced properly, and would get a vibration on pulling up a hill at those same speeds.

Re: Bumper and trim restore? What do I use?
I just did mine over the weekend, have been using Car Guys for 3 years. It works really well if you follow the instructions and apply it when the temps are above 70F or so. Lasts about 6-8 months and a bottle will do 2 applications unless your plastic is really shot. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071FR...

Re: Bumper / rubber / trim goop scam?
I use Car Guys plastic restorer. It lasts 6 to 8 months and looks really good.

Re: 06 V70 won't come out of park
You will need to replace your shifter knob- very easy 5 minute job. Something breaks inside and it will not actuate the release rod to get it out of park. At least that's what it was in my case.

Re: Door compatibility question 06’ XC70
It should work. You will have to reprogram the driver door module for the window to work properly most likely.

Re: Loving new to me V50 T5 AWD. 136K. Now spooked abrupt noise I've never heard
Is the noise your ABS pump engaging? Your traction control could be coming on as the result of a bad wheel sensor or ring perhaps? The sway bar end link will make a knocking sound over bumps but not much more.

Re: High pitched screeching sound?
Have you ever had the PCV system serviced? That can make a sound like this when it is getting blocked up.

Re: 2004 s60 R lights won’t shut off.
I am pretty sure the parking lights stay on all the time by default. It's a Volvo safety thing.
