Re: Curt Hitch for a 2000 XC70

@cdnbluez: Thanks...I didn't know if I need to install an additional cooling system. From what I have been reading, it sounds like it is highly recommended for older/smaller cars to install one of these if you are going to be hauling anything.

@ecbsykes: Thanks -- I will look into that.

Re: Curt Hitch for a 2000 XC70

One more question -- I will repost under a new topic if nobody takes a look at this. Do I need to install a transmission oil cooler for hauling a small 4'x6' trailer from California to Missouri? The trailer weighs 850 pounds empty, and I probably won't put more than 500-750 pounds in it. The car wou...

Curt Hitch for a 2000 XC70

Hello! I'm planning on moving cross country (CA to MO) in 4 months and I'm investigating the possibility of installing a trailer hitch. I will be renting a Uhaul trailer.

Re: Problem with right front turn signal and brake light

Thanks for the ideas. This is really stupid of me, but I actually looked at the high beam on the right side, not the low beam. The plastic casing/wiring harness was blackened and actually broke upon removal. Part #8678122 available for $9 from the dealer, along with $14 for the bulb. It sounds like ...
