Re: S70 - no power at high speed after many repairs made

Well we gave up and took it to a new mechanic at our old shop. He put it on the machines and analyzed it and determined it was a mass flow meter something or other, duh. We had replaced it recently with one from Autozone which looked the same but wasn't I guess so it was reading false codes. Replace...

Re: S70 - no power at high speed after many repairs made

The timing belt was recently changed, this past year I think. The mechanic checked it during this repair process and said it was fine, nothing had slipped. My husband did find a hose loose after this round of codes so one of the codes might be fixed by now, I haven't rechecked the codes again. But w...

S70 - no power at high speed after many repairs made

My 2000 S70 was running fine about July 2012 when it failed to pass inspection with check engine light on and about 9 codes. We proceeded to work on the car. Now it runs fine at reg speed but when you get to top speed like to pass a car, over 55, it loses power. Codes still showing are P0017, P0013,...

Re: check engine light and codes P0422, 0442, 1171, 1332

I wrote a reply but since I don't see it for some reason, I'll repost it. I took the car to the mechanic I use, he said the codes at AutoZone were generic and he wanted to put it on his diagnosis tool. (He got the same codes and comments I'd seen elsewhere.) He said to start at the cheaper options t...

Re: check engine light and codes P0422, 0442, 1171, 1332

Thanks. I did find a few places that listed the codes while I was waiting for replys. Seems like I may need to probably replace the sensors, gas cap, and see where we go from there. Might let the mechanic run the codes again and replace a few things at a time if my husband doesn't have time to get i...

check engine light and codes P0422, 0442, 1171, 1332

My 2000 S70 Volvo has the check engine light on, it's time for inspection so I had Autozone check the codes. They got these nos, but they aren't on the list of codes listed here on this site. What will I have to replace? Is this going to cost me an arm and a leg or can my husband replace a few thing...

Air conditioner stops working

I have a 2000 S70 that seems to have similar problems with air conditioner working and cooling and then going to warm after a few minutes, as I've seen on some other posts. It has become annoying. I took it to have it serviced last spring after it quit on a trip. They recharged it and said it was fi...

Can I disable or bypass the anti theft system

My 2000 S70 has a problem with the anti theft system I'm told, Took it to the dealer for a non related problem and they told me this. Said it was expensive to fix and I could take care of it temporarily by turning the key over and restarting, Amazingly this works, but is annoying, I may go days or w...
