Yeah okay, the noise is back. So what is this prop-shaft? is it the shaft that goes to the back-or the one that goes across the back of motor to passenger side cv drive-shaft? also I will put it up on jack stands this w/e- so I can rotate the wheels and listen for strange noises.

Well, today I drove the car to work. It started doing the noise intermittently, I really listened and tried to think of what it sounds like-the best I can compare it to is an old style alarm clock ring, but with your finger on the bell. I couldn't make it do it. I put the trans in neutral while at f...

Okay, so my wife takes me for a drive so I can hear the new noise. It doesn't do it as we back out of the drive, it doesn't do it at the first stop sign. about four hundred feet, then as we pick up speed on the main road,25 mph, this light metal on metal rapid clicking (or perhaps pinging?) in time ...

Thanks dcarlson12!! that was not the problem though, it turns out that it was a fuse. The guy at Xemodex,Chris, pointed out that the fuse ,according to him, always blows when the ETM goes bad. We changed the fuse and is working good now. I have to say though, that I have never seen any mention of th...

I had a leak that turned out to be the oil cap gasket(very inexpensive fix)the oil had leaked all over the top of the cam cover and down -I thought it was a seal leak.

Hello everyone! A good friend of mine has a '99 t6 sedan, one day recently he drove to an appointment, all was peachy with the car, he came out to leave and his Volvo would barely run. The car was in limp mode!! so he called me up. I told him about the ETM problems these cars have, so he contacted a...

What brand is your new CPS? It is known non Bosch CPS can cause problems. It's a OEM Volvo part- came in a Volvo box says 'made in the Netherlands'- and the cost was $239 form a local import parts distributor that mostly specializes in VW and Subaru, they got it the next day-IPD couldn't get one fo...

You might just check to make sure the oil fill cap gasket isn't leaking-I had an oil leak recently and where the oil eventually came out and where it originated from (the filler cap) were not near each other- and it was not obvious as the way it leaked was not easily visible even with the top plug s...

UPDATE..since no one was up to the challenge of my problem, I will update my query myself- the next day the engine started up normally and better yet the 'hunting' that it used to do after warm up is gone, might have been the brake cleaner sprayed in the air intake hose just before the ETM (I didn't...

Okay, so after two trips to the parts store (they ordered wrong part) and $239 bucks, the engine still won't start, I've decided to start scratching the other side of my head (that way I'll have matching bald spots!) installed new cam sensor- now I'm thinking about the other two codes-1603 and 1602?...
