Re: 12 volt socket not working
I am having this exact same problem. I bought one of those back massaging seat cushions from walmart. Plugged it in, and after 5 seconds it tripped the power to the socket or something. Now, neither 12 volt socket will work. Any ideas??? p.s. The link left in the last post just went back to the main...

Re: 05' s40 door panel removal
Thanks for that, it helps show me how to get the window control part off. The part I am actually trying to remove I highlighted in yellow on the attached picture. What you sent me just shows removing the whole side panel. The part I am trying to take off, I just want to know if it also just pops off...

GT Tuner box scam
I am sure most of you already know this, but this is for those who dont.... They sell these 'performance chips' all over the internet such as the GT Tuner box which is the most famous. First off there like $20, so obviously something funny is up. Plus they make unrealistic claims on performance. I h...

05' s40 door panel removal
My passenger side cloth door panel needs some work done to it. It's the cloth part that is also attached to the panel for the window control. The cloth has become old, dirty, and is starting to tear. It's looks like I can just stick something in the sides, and pop it off. However I didnt want to try...

Re: 2001 Volvo S40 missing key/remote
I know you can buy the unprogrammed keys off of ebay for like $20. You need some special serial number that was sold with the car for the keys. The car dealership wouldnt have this, only the person who originally bought the car. You cant do anything without it. I have been told you can go to a volvo...

Re: S40 2005 Front wheel bearings
I am in georgia now. As for the sound, it doesnt sound like metal rubbing together. It sounds like a bunch of marbles(bearings) rubbing together loudly. The mechanic said he checked all of them, and that they were fine after he replaced them. I really dont trust his judgment now. You can sometimes h...

Re: S40 2005 Front wheel bearings
what should I look for to check that, and how hard is it too do?
The sound thats coming from the wheels sounds like bearing rubbing up against each other. If you have ever been on a bike or skateboard that the bearing went bad, it sounds just like that.
thanks

S40 2005 Front wheel bearings
I had problems with both of my front wheel bearings. One was cracked, and the other was just all messed up. I spent like $600 and had them both replaced. Now a couple weeks later, they are starting to make grinding sounds, and a lot of noise. The mechanic I had work on it is in Florida, and I wont g...
