Re: Volvo has been overthinking its cars for about 15 years now
I had that F250 as a work truck back in the 90's. Great truck, I used to haul a ton of concrete rubble from my yard redo to the local crusher, no problem. I hated it when the company switched it out for a Ranger.

Re: 09 S60 AWD Seat, Carpet Removal & SRS
I have pulled the front seats on my V70, V70R, C30 and XC60 and always disconnect the battery first, never had a problem after putting the seat back in and reconnecting the battery.

Re: Seeking S60R Transmission Advice
I bought my 05 V70R in 2017, it had 101K miles.I was getting surges at down shift gear changes. I do a drain and fill of about 3 quarts at every 5000 mile oil change. It is now at 159 K miles and I would say the shift surges have gotten better. The fluid no longer looks burnt. That would be my recom...

Re: URGENT wheel bearing bolt gone in middle of nowhere
When I bought my V70R in 2017, I has to replace the bolt because it was missing on one of the front wheels. i must have driven 400 to 500 miles before I noticed. I saw no ill effects.

Re: '06 S60R Automatic Transmission: Where is the FILL plug?
The dipstick is in the same place as the regular P2 wagons. I pull my airbox on the 05 V70R to get to the dipstick/fill hole when doing a drain and fill. I didn't have to do this to my 01 V70.

Re: 2010 C30 Rear Seat Back Upholstery
I just replaced the seat skins on my 08 C30. When I put the skins on I dealt with the carpet backs both ways. First I put the skin on first and then I put the carpet on. The skins are held by metal tabs that catch the strips sewn on to the covers. After getting the first cover on I used a bone tool ...

Re: 2010 C30 Rear Seat Back Upholstery
I am also looking for feedback on this since I am looking to replace the seat skins on the rear seat backs. I have pulled the seat backs with the instructions I found on line but I need to pull the skins.
