Re: Replacement of C70 Top -Anyone done one??

You know, it's been so long - I cant even remember. I'll take a look and see if I still have the company info. I was extremely happy with quality of the top. There is a cheaper version (Stayfast etc) and then the "better" Sonnenland / Sonnendeck" OEM Hartz fabric - which is what I pur...

Re: Replacement of C70 Top - VIDEO INFO UPDATE

I was never able to find any videos or instructions online so I made a quick video of myself replacing the top on our 2001 Volvo C-70 this past weekend. Initially, I tried doing a repair / glue of the rear window with the 3M Windo-Weld. Even with a great prep of the glass and using the 3M Primer, th...

Replacement of C70 Top -Anyone done one??

Hi Everyone, I can't seem to find anything real specific on the site. Has anyone replaced their C70's top? Although our 2001 (26,000 miles) is in great shape, the rear window seal is shot, the window is "coming unglued" and the material has some dry-rot around the factory heat-seal around ...

Re: Missing / Misfire - not the "Usual" ETM ?? Issue - No co

Thanks for the reply. I agree, the coils are easy. Just did them on my 540 - can't really get any easier than that. The only issue I have though is: I'm guessing (like on my BMW and others) that a coil "bad enough" to make the car constantly miss would throw a misfire code. On my Ford F150...

Missing / Misfire - not the "Usual" ETM ?? Issue - No codes

Hi Everyone, I'm rather new and have been doing quite a bit of reading over the last year or so (even before I signed up). Can someone clear up a question I had? Looking to see if anyone has had this particular symptom. I've been fighting a "Misfire type of symptom" in our 2001 (24,000 mil...

Re: Bad Ignition Coil?

+1 on the cam sensor. Hi, New member here.. (Doing quite a bit of research). Wouldn't the Cam Sensor throw a code?? I've had them go bad on my BMW 540 and a few of our old Mercedes' and I used to actually get a code "almost before" I even noticed any symptoms. I'm actually getting ready t...

Re: contact strip in etm

Hi fast850,

Are there any tips you can give me on this repair? I'm a new member and don't think I can PM you yet (looks like it just sits in my outbox).

Thanks,
Brian

ETM Symptoms but no ETS or Check Engine Light??

EDIT: I do see a post in the repair database from Jim Rollins regarding his ETM failure with no ETS light. (Although it seems that there was a code posted). This is my first post (sorry a bit long) but I've been running across the forum for several months reading about the ETM issues recall etc. WE ...
