Re: C30 2010 water pours from fender

Sunroof drain at the bottom of BOTH "A" posts were disconnected where they join a fitting that dumps the water into the wheel well. This was found while the windshield was being replaced. This week I had noticed moisture dripping from the center top of the windshield. The entire top of the glass was ...

2010 C30 Wheel bearing noise

How does one isolate a bad front wheel bearing? Is there a tutorial on changing one?
Thanks

Re: 2005 S40 water leaking from under drivers seat

I think the S40 and C30 have the same heater boxes. If so I believe the problem is the drain hose from the heater box to under the center of the car. On the C30 the hose is located behind the carpet in the passengers side. It is a very small flexible hose about 5 inches long

Re: Strut noise?

My 2000 S70 GLT SE had the same noise on bumps . It was the lower A frame . Lift the front end and check for play in the wheel.

Re: Please help I.D. steering part...2000 S40

1st photo is tie rod 2nd and 3rd appear to be drive shaft boot that is seperated. The noise might be the lower ball joint. To check lift the wheel off the ground and you should be able to check for excess play

Re: Key Stuck in ignition

The button on the center consul is slightly depressed . With a sharp probe or knife work the button to its up position maybe 1/16" by pointing the sharp item in the side of the button and then push down on the other end of the tool. move to the opposite side and repeat.

Re: 1998 S70 GLT TURBO questions

MAKE SURE YOU CHANGE YOUR OIL. Use a Volvo oil filter or Mann. I had a Midas shop change the oil . The filter they used collapsed and starved the turbo of oil. $900 later a rebuilt turbo.

After days of rain I find the rear passenger floor wet. A day later when I turned sharply to the left in a parking lot I noticed wet pavement that was water coming from my right front wheel well . In an open parking lot I did many complete circles to the left and water flowed from the car. Not so in ...

Re: ABS Module or Wheel Speed Sensor?

1550 is a code for one of the front wheel sensors. I was able to use an ohm meter to find which one was bad. The wire harness can be unplugged and tested without removing the sensor . When I found the one with an open circuit I tied on a string before pulling it out from the bottom and used the ...
