Door won't open

The last time I locked the doors on my 850 the passenger rear door would not unlock. Not with the remote, not by pulling up the lock button and not by using the inside door handle. All the other doors work fine. I can't get inside the door to see what is wrong because I can't get access to the lower...

Re: 2000 V70 Motorhome - Flat towing / 4 wheels on the gro

Years ago we used "towing hubs" which bolted on the inside of the rear wheels to flat tow a race car to the track. The hubs would free wheel so that nothing turned except the tires. I have no idea if something like this exists in a Volvo lug pattern. Probably not likely but worth a search.

Re: 850 and S/V/C70 non-turbo vacuum lines

Great post Erik. I have been hoping for this info for a long time. I have a long standing cel that comes up as "long term and short term fuel trim" that I am counting on being a vacuum leak. I'll know soon thanks to you! One small piece of info that would be handy for having the vac lines ...

Re: Drain on Battery 1997 850 GLT

thanks for the suggestion but I've already done that. I used the negative cable and a meter instead of the positive cable and a test light, but there shouldn't be any difference. I had no response from pulling each fuse one by one. the meter remained a constant .3 amp drain. doesn't make a lot of se...

Re: Drain on Battery 1997 850 GLT

I was actually preparing a post for the same issue with my 1995 850. I just replaced the battery today so we'll see what happens, but, when I put a meter between the neg cable and the neg battery terminal I get .3 amps and full voltage. nothing is on in the car except the alarm system. I pulled each...
