Hello, If there is a check engine light there must be a code stored. The ABS would not set a check engine light. It is very difficult to tell you what to do without knowing what the Check engine code is. Just so you know you can purchase a code reader from an auto parts store for $100 or less these ...

This car does not have an idle air control valve. It uses the throttle body which is electronic/motor to control idle, cruise control etc.. Could you explain a little more about the throttle body "blown out" .. Does the car have a check engine light?

Hello, Just wanted to post results on how I replaced control arm bushings on my 00 S80 T6. I know the manual has a very long repair on this with dropping the subframe. Others in the forum lifted engine on passenger side to get at the 2 - 17mm bolts, and on drivers side dropping trans pan and lifting...

Hello, You can pull the intake manifold off and you will see all the bent intake valves. In my opinion just the cost in valves/headgasket is around $800 with aftermarket parts. Get yourself a good used engine (I found one for $1000 with both turbos). The engine comes out from the top. I did not need...

Hello,

Where is the evap located on the S80. I got a cel for large leak. Also the car had a misfire which is now fixed but I have a msg for engine service urgent. How do reset that?

Thanks

The head bolts might break when you try to take them out, so have an impact on them for a long long time before you try act...

Hello I would like to know if there is a code reader which will read/delete the module codes in a 2000 S80. Such as Airbag Service Code.. I have a regular OBDII but this will not work. Now I have a local volvo only repair shop (not dealer) that is able to do this. What do you think they use? Thanks,

Besides the obvious plugs, wires, oil filter. I believe this car needs timing belt service every 100K minimum which includes, water pump, idler and tensioner. There are so many engines that have failed because of this its unbelieveable. Another thing to do is flush your transmission fluid. This is a...

I looked into this a few months ago. In the manual it says ATF, at the dealer they say the volvo stuff which is $30/L. I went back to the dealer after purchasing the Volvo stuff and asked him, to which he says thats what his computer tells him to use. I have been using ATF in my S90 for years withou...
