S40 Rear Cam Seal 2001 1.9T

I had the usual VVT symptoms -noise and slow leak oil and was planning to replace it when I was "inspired" by sudden loss of oil pressure/volume. Close to a Sam's club and got a 12Qt case. Made it home (7 miles/8 quarts w/2 stops) and discovered the intake front cam seal was pushed out/loo...

Radio/acc Stays on with the key out

I'm having trouble on my 99 V70. The ignition appears to frequently stay in the accessory position even when the key is moved to the off and withdrawn.

O2 sensor diagnosis

My first post to the site but frequent user... My 99 V70 (non-turbo) 185K miles had the usual CEL and codes P1030 and P1035. I have access to a simple code scanner/reset but not a full service scanner. When I reset the codes come back on within a minute or so. Over the past week, I've since replaced...
