Re: Getting to the Dash Mounts 98 V70 XC

This repair was much easier than I expected, and the results are incredibly satisfying. Having a squeak-free and crunch-free car back is nearly priceless. The worst part was fashioning the new mounts from .0625" Aluminum bar, 1.5" wide for the middle two and 1" wide for the ends. I sh...

My wagon has a check engine light on with persistant off-idle hesitation (worse when cold). It also surges at heavy throttle before the automatic shifts up. I replaced the fuel filter and the problem was unchanged. My first (or rather second) guess would be throttle position sensor. Any experience w...

Stay tuned.

Re: Getting to the Dash Mounts 98 V70 XC

I have taken all the T25 screws out of the dash cover and there is still something holding down the passenger side cover near the airbag. Questions: What do I need to remove to get the dash cover off the vehic...

Getting to the Dash Mounts 98 V70 XC

Hello to the Forum. I stumbled onto a thread between bosdub and MadeInJapan about getting to the check engine light. I need to go a bit deeper into my 98 v70xc. The dash mounts on the drivers side have either broken or loosened and they make a heck of a racket (squeeking and crunching sounds). Can I...
