Before it happened I heard clicking noises under the left side of the steering column.I suspected that CEM was overheateing and going crazy. I pulled ...

Re: Limp Home ONLY when hot outside (?)

I noticed similar problem with my v70 today. No DIM, dead gauges, no turn signals no communication with OBD2 reader. It happened on a hot day. I drove back home and let it sit outside for a few hours and nothing has changed. I decided to reset power to CEM by pulling out 10A fuse for a minute. After...

Re: volvo v70 tailgate issues

Most probably wires behind left hatch hinge are your problem. Take it apart an inspect them.

Re: Fuel line disconnet

My oil trap replacement took me 8 hours, sore legs and back, but I enjoyed working on it. My vehicle is running good so far. No smoke coming out of the dip stick. Looks like oil trap was fine, but the engine ports were plugged. Black solid, carbon like substance was blocking them. elbow and lower port
