I found this turbo vacuum line disconnected

While replacing the crank position sensor (CPS) today I noticed a disconnected vacuum (?) line at the air inlet tube nearest the turbo inlet. Here's before I reconnected it: Turbo Line 1.jpg and here's after: Turbo Line 2.jpg I found a vacuum line diagram online that suggests this is the "blue&...

Thanks, this seemed to be the answer, and patience was rewarded. I ended up leaving it apart for about a week, and this time after reassembly it worked normally, and has continued to work since.

Re: Disassemble washed key fob?

Thanks for the suggestions. It looks like I'll have to try letting it dry for longer, though I now have the PCB out so shouldn't need the rice treatment. I found photos of a disassembled fob on another site, with instructions to "gently pry" the case halves apart. So I used a cell phone ca...

Disassemble washed key fob?

(Apologies if this has been covered, but the forum search requires words of 4 characters or more, and I don't know what else to call it but a "key fob"...) My car keys, including the fob for my 2007 V70, spent about 20 minutes in the washing machine yesterday. I immediately removed the bat...

Re: 2007 V70 has no STC

That would be DSTC not STC and your car should have it Are you 100% sure you have a 2007 (seriously)? My reading of the manual is that the T5s and Rs have DSTC, and the lesser models have STC. The VIN decoder says it's a 2007, it's registered as a 2007, and the door frame label says it was made 03/...

2007 V70 has no STC

I recently bought my first Volvo, a 2007 V70 2.5T auto, and have a question about spin and traction control (STC). Before buying I'd read that all 2007 models came with this standard, and the manual that came with my car says the same. But while my car was made in Mar 2007, turning the info ring on ...
