The old what is it worth question.

I'm looking at a 97 960 wagon with 175000 miles. It needs a head gasket, from being ran hot. The front electric seats don't move. I'm not sure how bad or expensive of a job the head gasket is but I could get the car pretty cheap. What things should I look out for on the car?
Thanks Jake

Looking for a wagon

I have an 850 sedan now but I want to upgrade to a wagon. I know there are lots of issues with the 2001 xc70 but does that also apply to the v70? I see quite a lot of the 2001 models for sale and I'm just wondering if there is a reason.
Thanks Jake

Midwest ABS Rocks!

I recieved an ABS control module from Matt Pollack with Midwest ABS and couldn't be any happier with the deal. He was easy to work with, very understanding, and just a real stand up guy. I would recommend him to anyone.

Re: FCP Lack of service

Refund was posted yesterday, at least thats done. There was still no atempt to contact me at all. I'm glad it's done with, but will never deal with FCP again.

Re: FCP Lack of service

It has been over 24 hours since I spoke with FCP last and still no refund. No contact at all for that matter. Being a small business owner myself it saddens me to see one ran in this way.

Re: FCP Lack of service

This was my first time dealing with them. I did everything that was required of me only to have them take my money and not ship the parts. I was given the feeling that if I had not called today I would not have ever seen the parts or my payment. I'm actually still waiting on a refund. I'm hoping not...

Re: FCP Lack of service

I just placed the same order with them. My parts will be here in 3 days, and the price was almost the same. FCP will not get a dime from me.

FCP Lack of service

I just got the phone with the no service of FCP. I placed an order on the 25th of January and my money was taken out of the account on the 26th. They still haven't shipped, claiming there was a hold on the card even though I have bank records stating the money was removed. The manager said they did ...

Re: Strut issue

I'm having the same issue on my 97. It has a clunk when you hit a bump comming from the passenger side front. The driver's side castle nut has a 1/8 gap below it but the passenger side is sitting on the mount. When I press down on the passenger side the castle nut raises off the mount. The car and v...
