Hi, I was wondering if an IPD flashed ECU for a 94-97 850 T5 would be compatible with a 98 V70 GLT. IPD bundles them together on their website for the reflash but I see that ARD lists them separately. I've also read that 94-97 ECUs are not compatible with 98s due to missing pins (???). I ask because ...

Hi, selling a brand new, never used Timing Belt Kit for 93-98 Volvo 850, S70, V70, C70. All parts are still sealed in their boxes. It is the kit that comes equipped with the hydraulic tensioner setup. I am selling because I bought it for my 98 Volvo V70 only to find out that my car requires the ...

My numbers are on the left, as I wrote in the parentheses above the image I was pitted against an older Nissan Sentra

Wasn't too sure where to post this, but since I can't seem to find any timeslips to compare to, I thought I'd post mine up to see if this is what a 98 V70 GLT would average on the 1/4 mile time.

Head was recently resurfaced and re-valved + all new gaskets. New timing kit, rebuilt 13G turbo by G-pop ...

Howdy all, I was wondering if any of you are running aftermarket security/alarm systems in your Volvos. I have a Clifford 50.7x in my 2004 Honda that I love and I'd really like to put the same setup in my 98 V70. Unfortunately the guy who installed and serviced all my alarm stuff moved away, so I'm ...

A second pair of hands works wonders. I also used silicone spray and a heat gun.

Glad to read you got it to pass! I was having the same issue with my 98 V70. After 300 miles of driving, the monitors were still in not-ready mode according to my two different OBD-II scanners. I finally decided to just take it to a smog place so they could fail it for me and I could get a temp ...

Hey guys, thanks for the informative replies! Especially to jersey240 for posting up the pic and links, those really helped me out figuring things out. So the problem was the timing cover had been damaged. When removed, I could see how it had been snapped off a bit unevenly. I picked up a new cover ...

Howdy! I picked up a 98 V70 GLT w/ the mechanical tensioner timing setup from a guy that had torn the entire head apart in an attempt to replace it. In the process of doing so, he removed all of the timing components and the cam gears from the camshafts. I've had the entire head remachined ...
