I have a 2000 S80 non-Turbo with 186K miles. The service manual gives the maintenance schedule up to 90K miles then says, "For services beyond 90,000 miles (144,000 km), please refer to the Warranty and Service Records Information Booklet". Anyone have this booklet? Anyone know how or if the ...

Thanks for the info JRL.

EstVolvo - We have about 145k. Have been using synthblend since it was new and 100% synth since about 100k. Engine itself has had no problems. No transmission problems either. Body looks brand new (garage kept). Our problems will be familiar to frequenters of this board ...

Dear owners of 04-07 V/XC70s,

My wife and I are seriously considering trading in our 2000 V70 XC SE (which we bought new and have loved/hated ever since) for a new(er) volvo wagon. Before making the leap, I was hoping to find a "review" of the 04-07 generation. We're considering the 04-07 models ...

I was just wondering the same thing. I like the crosshatch/egg crate grill on the later models and have a 2000 with the chrome slit grill I'd like to replace. Please let us know if you have luck with this.

Update - I finally finished this repair. It took me a while because I could not get the lower pipe to seat properly. After refitting it with the old O-ring and driving for another week, I tried again and got it on with a little more gentle persuasion (rubber mallet). Keeping my fingers crossed and ...

Ok, I attempted this repair yesterday and it didn't go quite as smoothly as some of the other folks here have said. After MUCH difficult prying, I finally got the cotter pins out. I pulled out the lower pipe and about 1/3 coffee can of coolant poured out (so far so good except coolant burns your ...

Just an update - I found that I DID save the two pieces and will try the super glue fix. Thanks Uncle Tom. I wouldn't have thought to look for them if you hadn't posted your fix.

Jeez Uncle Tom, kinda wish I'd saved those now.

This little switch was cracked in two when I got the car (2000 S80 2.9). The two pieces easily came out of the window regulator unit through the hole on top. The dealer sold me a new little button for the low price of only $13 (for a tiny little plastic piece - why am I suprised?) and the parts guy ...

I've got the same problem with my '00 S80 2.9. Pulled off the console panel and the one under the driver's side dash and it is clearly faulty O-rings as I can see where the leak is coming from. I'm going to attempt this repair myself and printed off the instructions at the link above, which seem to ...
