Put in DOT3 instead of DOT4. Problem?

Hi, After buying my 240 I checked over the brake system and changed the brake fluid. I've done this several times with other cars. The car is a 1992. Thinking DOT3 fluid has been the standard for years and DOT4 is a relatively new invention, I put Prestone Synthetic DOT3 fluid in my Volvo. Just boug...

'83 to '04 Manuals on CD?

Hello,

I've noticed on ebay recently a fellow selling many types of automobile service manuals on CD. He has sets for all models of Volvos from 1983 to 2004, all on a 2 CD set. Does anyone have any experience with these manuals? Are they any good or a rip off?

Thanks,
Mark

K&N Air Filters

Hi there,

I've seen these K&N air filters for sale. For my car one would be 40 to 50 dollars. Are they really worth the money?

Thanks,

Mark

How does the fuel filter come off?

Thanks for the reply. I pretty much tried that. I took the car to a Volvo refurbishing garage with reasonable rates. He looked the car over and said it was in very good shape except for a bushing going bad in the tail of the transmittion. I'll have him do the filter for me when he does the trans. an...

I have ticking as well.

Hi, I just bought a '92 240 with 162K on the clock. Mine starts ticking a little worse after warmup. I figured it was tappet noise. I put fresh 10W-30 oil and a filter in it. The tick is a little softer, but it's still there. Will it cause damage to the lifter / camshaft if I delay in getting it adj...
