850 upholstery problem

So if I glue it shut with gorilla glue and it goes off in a wreck it will deploy inside the dashboard and will be contained without bursting the dash into chunks at the passenger? I guess I just don't know how strong it is when it goes off or better yet disconnect the airbag altogether and carry a ...

850 upholstery problem

OK so let me see if I understand this right. This flap can be permanently glued down? It appeared to me that the foam seal had a purpose. By visual inspection it appeared that when in tact the flap, in an accident would separate and allow an air bag to deploy. Is this incorrect? That is why I have ...

850 upholstery problem

I'm going to take a photo of the problem so you can see what I am talking about. It's just the black rubber that covers the airbag deploy compartment coming off. It has a seal around it that looks like foam.

Update: OK here is the problem. it's coming apart. Has anyone ever fixed this before ...

'93 850 GLT passenger airbag "flap" coming up

Hi guys
My passenger airbag is coming apart. it looks like it is sealed with a foam type of gasket that is going away due to the heat and age. How do I repair this problem?

Sunday efforts for not??
Don't know if this was the right area to clean but I went around on all 4 tires and brushed off the dirt and cleaned the inside of these connectors. Anything else was probably over my head. I took the pictures for future reference. The noise only happened in reverse a few ...

final post for Saturday.
I got a RHand rear wheel sensor error message 2-1-4 and 2-1-3 Lhand.
Now I can try to clean them as you say if I can get under it.
I went through the entire set to seek out others if any and got a few non related issues. Most of all though Thanks for the help today, I really ...

OK
I got a 1-1-1 code out of it. the Haynes book says that's normal.
As I read my book with little knowledge of what to do, I see 3 things that make up the system. the wheel sensors, the electronic control unit, and hydraulic modulator assembly. It says one sensor is installed to each wheel, and ...

OK Ozark Lee I will let my friend look into this tomorrow he can probably figure it out better than I can. Do I need some special tools to do this procedure? Duum question: What's a flywire, any thing like a firewire? :(

Brakes that grind/grab on 1993 850 GLT

Ok
If I drive with hard braking it doesn't do it at all the brakes grab fine with no noise at all.
Any time I am stopping slowly at about 1/2 mile an hour, as I am about stop, the pedal grabs and is forced up and at the same time the brakes make the noise.
I know what pad to disc grind sounds like ...

Brakes that grind/grab on 1993 850 GLT

Hi guys,
Please read the sob story first to tell you how frustrated I am with volvo repair shops and chain repair shops that do nothing.
My dearly beloved 93 850 GLT 4 has 135,000 miles and I got the shaft treatment lately.

So, let me describe to you the noise in detail. I press the brakes when I ...
