98 V70T5 wagon - stops running intermitently

98 V70T5 wagon stop running intermitently. It began randomly at stop sign / lights. It would stop running without any warning, no shuttering or sputtering. It would take several cranks to get it running, sounds like it is starved for gas. Once running it would run smooth as usual. It would run fine ...

My 98 V70T5 wagon stops running intermitently. When I was at a stop light or sign it stopped running. No shuttering or sputtering. It takes several cranks to get it running again, sounds almost like it is starved for gas. Once running, it would not happen again for an hour +. Now it happens when I a...

98 V70 T5 driver door lock not working

98 V 70 T5

The other day I tried unlocking the driver via key remote. The lock made a jackhammer sound and the button did not pop up and the door remained locked. Do I need to replace the entire lock? How easy is it to open the door panel?

98 V70 T5 wagon - front tire wear

I bought my V70 2 1/2 years ago. In that time period I have went through 3 sets of front tires. The tread wears on the outer and inside edges. My mechanic said that it was a common issue with Volvos because of the tight turning radius.

Is this true or do I have a problem?

Re: 1998 Volvo V70 T5 wagon

Thanks as well, but it's the original windshield. Did you have your windshield replaced recently? When I had mine replaced (Not Volvo glass) the dash was coming in contact with the glass and causing a squeek. I tried everything from spray lube lube to dish soap. Nothing worked. Finally I took it bac...

Re: 1998 Volvo V70 T5 wagon

Thanks for the info. I'll give it a try Not easily. The dash was probably was removed at some point for a new evaporator and whoever did it, did a poor job, overtightened one of the dash clips and it broke! The clip is attached to the dash itself so there's no great way to hold it now. If the squeak...

1998 Volvo V70 T5 wagon

Don't know if this is a common problem but my dash board squeeks while I am driving. Everytime I hit a bump in the road it squeeks. Any ideas on how to fix this?
