Re: Camshaft Locking Tool 04 XC70

I am preparing to replace my head gasket and am not sure which camshaft locking tool set to get. I'm leaning towards IPD - 121804 kit but it looks like the same no name kit I see on Ebay for ⅓ the price. I may only use it 1 time, so don't want to pay too much or get a shoddy tool. I'd appreciate an...

i dont know what a tilt speed sensor is,

Clean and re-seat connectors.

Re: Exhaust Leak 2004 XC70

the upper flange, or pre cat, is far less likely to fail unless its the flex pipe weld. ft cat flange fails all the time, either weld or get a flange repair coupler.

Re: 04 xc70: Are deep pockets needed for this vehicle?

I have owned several p80 FWD and several p2 AWD. I usually buy them in about the 150k range but I look for well maintained cars. The p2 cars definitely cost more to maintain. These are the main reasons for the additional expense: - AWD parts. They will fail. You can ignore it and drive FWD, that is...
