'04 V70 113k miles - Timing Belt???

The manual says I need a new timing belt at 120K.
A private mechanic recommended it at 105K
and last week the dealer recommended it now.

Can I wait to 120K and should I have it done now????
Thanks,

2004 V70 (non tur) Check Engine Light - Code ECM100A

I got this letter in the mail from Volvo about the extension of the warranty up to 120,000 miles or 10 years for P46 Extended Warranty. Well, my check engine light has been on so I took it to the dealer today. They said they didn't find anything wrong with the items listed in the letter (1 ...

I need new tires for my 2004 V70 - Any Advice

Hi,
I have a 2004 V70 with just over 105K miles on it. I love this car. I need to get new tires on it before the winter season. I live in Northern Virginia so we get some snow and some ice, but nothing like the northeastern states. Any advice on where to get a good deal on tires? Thanks.

Daytime Running Lights - How do you turn them off

Okay, I know Volvo's are safe and all, but I'm going through a new bulb for my low beams about every 6 months. This is ridiculous. I checked the manual and it says "have your dealer turn off the day time running lights" which of course will cost me an arm and a leg.

I checked the fuses in the ...

2004 V70 - Cargo Carrier Question

I have a 2004 V70. I don't have the side bars that come installed on it, but I did buy the bars that go on top of it. They are the ones that go across the roof and mount into metal mounts on the roof. I want to purchase a cargo carrier (a hard top). Can anyone recommend one? I don't want to buy from ...

I have an 04' V70 (non turbo).
I get about 26-28 mpg highway and about 19-21 mpg city.

I met a person w/ an XC and they said their gas mileage is horrible but I don't know what it was.
Good luck.
