Re: 2002 s60 Troubles with radiator removal.

It's a single white wire, fairly small guage. There's two connectors coming out of the fan, one has a pink and black wire which is connected, the one in the above picture has the small white wire.

Re: 2002 s60 Troubles with radiator removal.

The clip when I removed it was essentially gone, with only the outer collar remaining. Had to order a new one since no auto part stores carry them around here.

Another quick question. Once I got the new radiator back in, hooked everything back up, put in some new coolant, all was good until I ...

Re: 2002 s60 Troubles with radiator removal.

Thanks for that information. When you say "push the tab in" does that mean in towards the radiator, or pinched in on the line. Also, the half that looks good is in itself also loose and about to break off. How exactly is the collar holding the pipe in? I only ask because the Hines manual doesn't ...

2002 s60 Troubles with radiator removal.

I was replacing my cracked radiator today when I ran into a problem. I had most of it out, and was removing the upper Cooler Pipe when I noticed the Collar was busted up. Anyone know of a way to get this disconnected? I have a picture of it below.

Re: Recent accident question. Dealing with repairs.

Thanks guys. I feel like the son-in-law is worried that either I or a shop is trying to rip him off. No, I just want my car repaired correctly. I'm waiting for my father-in-law to get off work, and we will go over together to get the ball rolling. AZ has it that if you collect information, you can ...

Re: Recent accident question. Dealing with repairs.

Any compelling reason why? I've got the son-in-law saying "You don't need a door, those other companies just trying to rip us off, this guy is good". I need a good reason to show to them why I need a new door.

Recent accident question. Dealing with repairs.

2002 s60 AWD black

So, the other day my neighbor backed out of his driveway with a truck, and backed into the driver side rear door, denting it in and putting in a 3" long gash. First, there was no note or anything, which pissed me off, but within a half an hour his daughter came over and ...

Re: Transmission drain and fill question!

I'm just hoping it lasts till I get enough money to get another car. Sorry, I like this s60, but with two kids, and a third on the way, a wee bit tight in the back.

Transmission drain and fill question!

Hey guys (and gals),

So, I just did a drain and fill on my 2002 s60 transmission at 144,000 miles. (Hint: Buy the type IV ATF fluid from Toyota, not the stuff from Volvo. $6.50 or so a quart at Toyota where it was $23.00 a quart at Volvo for the EXACT SAME FLUID).

Anyways, after the fill, I went ...

Re: Stupid Midas!!

They did that. Right and left sides were okay. I installed them, and double checked it. My concensus is to find a reputable shop, not a national chain like Midas.
