Re: Is window glass weatherstrip supposed to be glued on?

Mine did the same thing as yours has.It made the window squeak when raising and lowering when it's hot outside.I glued it back into the track with contact cement.3M I think it was.Not real easy to do.The contact cement has to go on both surfaces and cure for a while before you mate them back togethe...

Re: Experience with ALLDATAdiy.com?

I had it for many years for previous owned cars and it was pretty good.Then around 2002 I got a subscription for my 98V70LPT.It was not satisfactory at all.In fact,I contacted them and asked for a refund and they did so for me. I strongly sugest getting Vida/dice. There is a guy on FB that sells ref...

Re: What all needs replacing? (Front strut issues)

It would be foolish to not replace the strut bearings as well as the spring seats.Less than $100 more for doing both.When you take it apart you will see what I mean.On a tight budget,the strut itself could wait a while if not completely shot.

Re: 2007 xc70 Headlight and foglight bulb questions

I have a similar situation as yours. I have a 07 S60 and did the upgrade to using H9 bulbs for the low beam headlamp bulbs as opposed to using the stock H11 bulb. There is a bit of modifying the h9 bulb to fit the housing which can be found on Youtube. The process is easy and only takes less time an...

Re: 2005 S60 T5 Advice to Buyers

I am also a long time Volvo owner, I concur with your observations. In addition, brake fluid flushing, power steering flushing, and transmission flushing are equaling important. I have had oil, trans,and pw steering analysis services performed done on my beloved 98 V70. I inquired when I sent in the...

Re: 2002 S60 Base - A/C won't cool for long

+1 on that reply. Been there and done it. But the bread clip fox wont last long. If your system is full of r134 and ya still have the problem, ya might want to consider re-shimming the compressor. It lasted for me for quite a while. I sold the car before it failed again. but my guess is that it will...
