Re: My Second Oil Change

I thought I’d shoot another question. So I don’t have jack stands that fit under my car, but my brother had an old vw and he said he drove it on ramps but it hit the bumper going up.

My Second Oil Change

Hello. I am due for my 2nd oil change on my 98 s70 glt. I am wondering if there’s anything I should replace while I’m under there. I’m looking for easily accessible things, but will take note of everything.

How to remove H7 socket from headlight (98 s70 GLT)

Hello fellow Volvo drivers! I'm having an issue with my right headlight, it doesn't work after a bulb change. The connector is in pretty bad shape. I'd like to start by taking the socket out and replacing it, only issue is I have no clue how to get it out.
