Update: Even though I drove the car yesterday after connecting the sensor I left unplugged, it ran poor. But this morning when I drove it it felt like its usual self again, wierd? I did go through and double check the vacuum hoses from the TCV and all looked okay, I may replace them anyway. Thing is...

Well I had a slight oil leak so I figured it was time to do the pcv service. All went fine till the test drive. The car now runs like crap, almost like the turbo isnt working. I lost at least 1 mpg from having to force it a little more. So what I did find is a code, atmosperic pressure sensor, (oops...

Thanks MIJ. I just didnt see a place for the vacuum line to connect to, so I thought it was electric somehow, and there may be a sensor that sent electric signal to the gauge. I had the dash out to replace some bulbs, so I had a pretty good look at it. I may look for an aftermarket gauge, or get the...

In my 97 850 the gauges (instrument panel) were obviously replaced. I had the dISC on the dash and no select reset panel on the dash. I have corrected that. Thing is the boost gauge is dead. I thought I read somewhere that it was vacuum operated, but after having it out, that doesnt seem to be the c...

Great how to article. I did the removal, resolder yesterday then siliconed it back together, gave it a few hours to set and reinstalled it this morning. Works great. I had four codes for rear speed sensors 313,314,323,324, this eliminated all of them. The only main broken solder I saw was at the 2 b...

Cool. Dealer closed at noon, so I went to locksmith. I will call monday. Thanks. I did a search and didnt find any matches for this. I hope to add keyless as well, if its set up for it. Slowly getting all the bugs out of this car. Forgot to ask, they just need the registration for proof of ownership...

So where is the place to get keys for your volvo? I went to the locksmith, he says yeah sure I'm the only guy in town that can cut these, I say, okay great, how much? Answer $95. Nope nevermind. I dont even have a chip in this one 97 850. I only got one key when I bought this thing and now I get the...

Thanks for the tip and the part numbers Lee. I like the site, I'll be using it often as this is my first Volvo, and wow does it need some work. Dealer here was like $15.50 for the 3 pieces, but I have 4 cooler lines, 2 trans 2 oil cooler. So that would be $62. I may give Darryl Watrip Volvo a call.

I am in need of the clips, orings, etc that connect the cooler lines to the radiator. I saw that FCP Groton has them for 19.95 (x2) I have turbo, I just replaced the radiator, and now have an oil leak. My question is anyone bought these at the dealer or are they way more, or even available without t...
