Re: Trouble Starting, Uncontrolled High Revving

I had the same oil leakning and a problem starting on my 2000 S70 which sat for 3 months. Turns out that the oil can find its way down from the cap into the coil and the spark plug housings. I would reccomend replacing the spark plugs, especially if you notice oil on them and the gasket to the oil c...

Re: 2000 Volvo S70 Strange Noises?

Got a new perspective.... literally The noise occurs when letting of the gas, braking abruptly, or when driving the car fast in a tight circle. After jacking it up and taking a quick look underneath I noticed the rubber boot on the steering linkage on the passenger side front wheel showing signs of ...

Re: 2000 Volvo S70 Strange Noises?

Thanks, not the news I was hoping for. How much would a rebuilt driveshaft and OEM CV joints cost?

Re: Guidance needed - used car shopping

I agree with bigkev414, the S70's are great cars, I own a 2000 S70 AWD with 115,000 miles on it and it runs great without major repairs, Interior fixes like the seat are easy, you can just get it sewn up. I was in an accident with a 1999 S70, I was a passenger when a man sped through a red light and...

Re: Rough Idling / Reduction of power

I can't help with the codes but I can offer this. I had somewhat of the same problem. After purchasing my 2000 S70 the battery would always die, had to replace the non OEM with an OEM battery and so far no problems and I also got a P0440 code. Was able to make that go away by disconnecting and recon...

Re: Fuel door won't open on 2000 C70

I would try to see if its the button or the wiring to connect it. I dont know how feasible this is for you but try finding another button (Junkyard, dealer, really, really good friend?) and see if that works If it does then your button broke, if it isn't then the problem is a wiring connection somew...

Re: Questions On A 2000 Volvo S70

Just replaced spark plugs using E170_Driver's tutorial https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=27232&p=122733 and the car is running much better. Will have to see what happens during the week.
