'04 XC70 Sunroof

Just wanted to put out a general "thank you" to members who put out the fix for a buggy sunroof. My sunroof died while partially open. Heavy rain was predicted so I immediately applied duct tape as an interim fix. Researched the problem on MVS and found the fix (disconnect battery; reconne...

2004 XC70 Access to Under Dashboard

I have a rattle under my dashboard that occurs in the winter. I suspect it is a control cable that is loose and vibrates against the underside of the dashboard (passenger side.) Is there a way to gain access to this area to better secure the cable? I was hoping removal of the glovebox would provide ...

Re: 2004 XC70 Alarm System

Thanks for the input. I did read the thread and am convinced this is a doable job. My problem right now is finding a supplier on the internet for a replacement module. I've pulled fuse #38 in the interim. If it comes to that, I'm assuming the Volvo dealership has the module though they may require t...

2004 XC70 Alarm System

I've apparently got the same problem reported by countless others regarding the alarm system/module. I started getting Alarm System Needs Service alerts and then, in the middle of the night, the lights would flash (as if there had been an intrusion) for about 10 minutes. I intend to order a new modu...

Warning Light- Coolant Low

About a month ago, I started getting intermittent warnings when I'd first start my XC-70. They have continued sporadically. When it occurs, it is always when the engine is stone cold (sitting all night). The triangular emergency light illuminates and I get a warning message "Coolant Low; Shut E...

Auto-Locking Indication Lights

I have a 2004 XC70. Until last night when I would press the "Lock" button on my key fob, I'd get a visual indication of locking... the turn signal lights and side panel lights would flash. This was a nice convenience. It stopped so functioning last night. Can anyone explain what might have...

Siphon Gas From Tank?

I have a strange one for which perhaps somebody has some insight. I have an XC70, 2004. It is supposed to go in for the fuel pump recall check. However, they advised that if the car has more than 1/4 tank of gas, it cannot be checked/repaired. No problem (I thought); I planned to simply use a transf...
