Re: I might buy an 07 S60 2.5t

Was it sluggish because it had issues, or was it just sluggish because it was sluggish? I don't expect it to be as quick as my S70 t5. But the older I get the less I drive like a hooligan so I don't really care

I might buy an 07 S60 2.5t

Hi all. I am thinking about buying a 2007 S60 2.5t. I currently drive a 99 S70t5 and had a 2000 C70 hpt. It has 125,000 km(not miles) the guy wants $1750. The price is not the issue. I would just like to hear what owners of them have to say. Pro's/Cons things to look out for etc.
As always, thank ...

Re: 99 s70 inner tie rods. Smi vs trw?

Thank erikv11. Um it would seem the parts I have are for an smi rack, as per the number on my fender, but the parts a wrong. Maybe the rack was changed out? I don't know. I searched the rack for markings and couldn't find anything. But my rack does have the rounded bit, not the hex part you say is ...

99 s70 inner tie rods. Smi vs trw?

Does any body know what the difference between the inner tie rods is between the smi and trw racks? I ordered two from napa, but the only sent one so ordered another from bumper to bumper. The treads are different ( on the steering rack end) so someone sent the wrong one! I ordered for an smi and ...

Here's where things get ugly. I ordered 2 from uap napa, one of them came in in a timely matter. The second was a no show. So after two weeks I ordered ...

Re: 2011 XC90 (Canada) TPMS Question

Probably not the answer you're looking for but I wouldn't trust the tpms anyways. Disclaimer I have never owned a car that has it. But I of heard they a don't work well. My cousin has a GMC truck and her tpms light came on so she kept putting air in her tires, this was in cold Canadian weather. I ...

Non Volvo(toyota rav4) manual transmission question

My aunt has a Toyota rav4 with a manual transmission. It won't stay in 5th gear, it always "pops out". Generally speaking if a trans is doing this could it be a simple linkage that needs to be adjusted or a trans rebuild? Sorry for posting a non volvo query but I figured I'd ask here first (hey, I ...

About six months later any time he would get upset or start crying I would ask him, "Liam do you want to go see batmans car?" he would say ...

Re: Recently stuck in the mud then strange wheel vibrations?

Good post! I was aware of this but it is good to let others know. I got my S70 stuck in the mud this past summer and the first thing I did was take for a blast down the highway before the mud had a chance to dry and get caked on.
