Hi all,

I hate to do.
I love this car, and would love to keep "restoring" it.

However, I am going to be out of town for a couple of months and have no place to store it, and no one to look after it.

I would like to find her a ...

Thanks guys.
@precopster...was your repair cleaning of it? or replacing it completely? ....in regard to it potentially being totally shot.

Re: 1997 850 Reverse Lights

Hi,
I am helping out a friend with a '98 S70.
No reverse lights. Fuse is fine. Bulbs new.
I tried the "rowing" through the gears...about 100 times.
No dice.
Inspection is by April 1. I don't have time to do the PNP clean up for her as described in that thread.
Any suggestions? Something different to ...

Re: 1998 V70 AWD P0455 P0440 P0442 Fix with Photos

Great write up!
Not to derail thread...

Asking this for my friend's '98 s70 with 0442code.

Anyone in New York City know if this code can fail her at inspection?
Will try to do all in this post, but probably won't have time by end of month (inspection time).
Thanks

Re: 98 v70 GLT ECU "not ready". Can't pass inspection

well over 1k miles still no ready.
took to a mech. he couldn't help, but did give me a "used" sticker from another car he was working on which bought me a month....at no charge.
very cool.

How many circuits are showing 'not ready' ??

If its 2 or fewer, you can inspect and pass in NY.
