Re: Right headlight turns off-on-off by itself

Several years ago I was having constant issues with headlight bulbs. I think I replaced the bulb socket (maybe with a ceramic?) and things have been good ever since.

Re: 2007 xc70. Anyone use a split cv boot replacement?

Put a BailCast split boot from Amazon on a 2002 Honda CRV one year ago. $21.49
Not a long-term fix, but on an older vehicle where you're not wanting to make major investments it has it's purpose.
Holding up fine, but keeping my eye on it.

Re: Recurring P0101

QUICK UPDATE

Still running strong, despite periodic P0101 recurring every few days. Instead of immediately clearing it, I've just ignored it and eventually it goes away. Then comes back, then goes away. As long as the car runs smoothly, I'm just ignoring it and maybe the computer will find some way ...

Re: Older S60 vs newer S80

IMHO...save your $$$. That said, I am extremely loyal to the P2 with my 2008 S60 2.5T at 260k miles. I will be sad when she leaves me. Not looking forward to finding a replacement. Have been on CarGurus autosearch for a 2005-2008 S60 T5 in the midwest for several years just in case. Have never seen ...

Re: Recurring P0101

Well, not sure what else to do at this point. P0101 comes back almost daily. Runs OK even when the code pops up, so maybe I just need to live with it. And clear the code when I get tired of seeing it. Ordered a new Bosch MAF as a last resort.

Re: How many repairs will dealer find on my p2

Nailed it. This is right about what I guessed. Could have been much worse, so congrats on that :)

Re: Coolant Change-out - 2002 V70

Just did this with the blue stuff from Advance. I forget the brand but it was for "european" cars...volvo, bmv, etc.
I drained it out the bottom of the radiator. Probably put about 6-7 qts back in.
