Re: Speaker Crackling - Only When Moving

Thanks...there is no AMP under the front seat. I also looked to see if there were (AMP Wires/Connectors) in case the AMP option is a Plug in type. If there are the connectors for the AMP under this seat, even though the car doesn't have an AMP...can someone shot me a picture so I know what I'm looki...

Re: Speaker Crackling - Only When Moving

What.......no takers on this? So here's an update.... I pulled the cover off of the door pillar to access the wiring to check for any breaks or shorting - nothing found. I pulled off the plastic covers to access the wire harness on the floor...nothing found. But, I did notice that if I shake the Fro...

Speaker Crackling - Only When Moving

Hello... I have a '98 V70xc, and the rear passenger door speaker started to crackle - but only on bumps and sharp turns. On level/smooth surfaces, it seems to be OK - except once it starts crackling....it keeps happening more often. (Car has the factory: Radio/CD/Tape - I don't think there's an amp ...

Re: Bevel Gear / Angle Gear...Gone Bad?

Would a binding Bevel Gear cause the Prop Shaft to lock up and the rear wheels would skip/shutter on tight slow turns? Or, is this more of a sign of the VC?

(Just trying to narrow it down so I'm not throwing parts at a problem....thanks to everyone for the inputs and advice.)

....and Prop shaft was replaced with a CO rebuilt - all is good there, as well.

Thanks

Re: Bevel Gear / Angle Gear...Gone Bad?

Thanks for the replies... *There is no fluid leaking, or ever leaked from the VC - all appears to be dry and clean in this area *Tested the VC per the Volvo Procedure several times - both sides lifted (one at a time), and it appears to be right on spec' for torque indications *Has anyone rebuilt the...

Bevel Gear / Angle Gear...Gone Bad?

Hello Again... ('98 V70XC, 150Kmi) ... finally got around to figuring out an intermittent problem when turning at low speeds (tight turn radius), and why I would get a rear wheel shutter or wheel skipping during turns like this.... I went through the rear parking brakes - adjusted several different ...

Re: Oil leaks, but only while driving

I recently had a similar problem with my 98 V70XC...but solved with a valuable hint, I found that there was a tear in the 90deg hose from the PCV Oil Trap to the Block. It would drip down the front of the block only after driving - looking like a leak at the seam in the block, or the Oil Pressure Se...

Re: More Oil Leaks - Any Advice

Thanks for all the replies everyone. Had some tips from the (VS) site as well - one was dead on for the leak higher up on the engine....it looks to be an overtightened clamp on the 90` hose off the Oil Trap - to the block. I did have a cut o'ring on the dipstick tube - that oozing has stopped. Now I...

Re: Spare Keys - Where to get?

@erikv11...Thanks for the site. Do they cut them to the correct (VIN) before shipping?
