I just landed here to give cleaning my sensors on a '95 850 a try. For posterity the procedure I used was to remove one wheel at a time providing easy access to the 10mm bolt and sensor. I then used clean cotton cloth to wipe the sensors clean. The location of the sensor is obvious with the wheel re...

These windshields are getting harder to find at least in Florida. I have called 3 shops and none of them can get a front windshield for my 850. I did find one at the dealership after a tip from one of the shops but none of the shops I have called will install it because they only install glass they ...

Thanks for the great write-up. I did find there is a special tool to remove the retaining ring."Volvo fuel pump lock ring tool" $20-$50.

I attempted this procedure with this part: https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/Volvo-pnp-switch-850-c70-S70-V70-1 It was a no-go. The reverse light never went out - it only rotates about 10 degrees. I positioned it in the midpoint of its travel and am hoping for the best. Others have recommended gettin...

My mistake. It was a '95. I corrected the listing. I just had 2 instances where it would not start in park. Had to move it to neutral. I am going to try the procedure here: https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=57963#p57963 . I must be correct in thinking the "large metal par...

I have been experiencing issues with the transmission for several months. It started with the Volvo going into limp mode - would not get out of first gear. The mechanic could not read the codes with OBD II so I used OBD I and pulled the following transmission codes: A1 Transmission 114 Program selec...

My check valve was jammed shut too but more importantly the rubber elbows connecting it to the hard lines were cracked and leaky. This might also cause the problem if the Purge valve does not fix it. It's right by the fuel filter just forward of the fuel tank on the passenger side. I used fuel line ...
