It's been a long time....i thank all the help i had in the past for my son's old 95 850 turbo. It was a lot of fun and so much knowledge gained. But alas it's gone to volvo heaven. Hey almost 400k miles? You can't ask for more. He moved on to a 2004 Audi allroad. Yep, big mistake and an expensive ni...

New model for me! In trying to figure out all my features and options for settings, one has me stumped! I can open the rear hatch from the drivers seat or with the remote but the only way i can close it is with the button on the hatch itself. Seems a bit backward to half to get out of vehicle every ...

pretty sure the temp gauge is normal. In fact it's the fastest warm up cycle of any car i've ever owned! you get heat in 10 deg. weather within a mile of leaving the house. So I'd wager the warm up cycle is normal. I'm going with my gut to electrics. Just for kicks I pulled the Fuel pump relay I fix...

good question! Unfortunatelty I'm going to have to rig up a test gauge that I can put into place quickly as is difficult to monitor this parameter when it occurs will my son working odd hours. ofcourse it will never exhibit to no start problem until you forget about it. Still (according to my son) t...

Trouble with my son's 95 850 turbo. without warning it will fail to start. no codes found after scanning. fuel pump relay updated with hi temp caps about a year ago. sometimes will fire up immediately, other times will take 8-10 cycles (short crank tries to protect starter from overheating). sometim...

Very well! Only had to top it off this summer with 2oz 134a. you could hang meat in there in july!!

Well it fiquires with winter fast upon us all those " little problems" :evil: now get quick attention. Heater works great and i can get airflow at all positions of the climate control knob except....defroster. Little to no air flow yet I can hear the stepper moters shifting around as I can...

Hi, I don't know if this will help at all 'cause I'm not familier with the V70 electrics. But.. my sons '95 850 turbo did the exact same thing & I finally traced it to the fuel pump relay. It's electronic related and the reason for failure was 2 Capacitors on the relay board itself were breaking...

kind of puzzled on this one. I recently got a pair of replacement hood latches to pelace the badly cracked ones on my 95 850. The drivers side has a 2 wire harness plugged into the electrical wiring and the replacement has none. assuming this is for some sort of hood open/close sensor, do i need thi...

I can't find the link but i saw a proceedure on setting\checking the damper motor positions for the climate control on a 95 -850 series before. anyone know wherei might find that again?

Thx,
