There is a pdf on the Readiness Code problem with S70's in this link. You should reset the codes and just drive for a bit and go back to the tech and asked him if he know how to bypass that portion of the test.

Yes, the standard wheels from any 850 95 or newer or from any S70 will fit. And apparently any V70, certainly any V70 up to 2000. This is a really easy swap you don't need to get technical, though of course you can. and I ask that because at Tirerack they show 15" available for the S70. Those 3 spe...

Have noticed several negative reviews about newparts.com on Yelp.

Thanks. Received an email (advertisement) from them this week and was considering purchasing parts needed coming up.

When you look for rims here are the 3 main criteria with the bolt pattern being set (standard). Here is what was on my old S70 T5 - http://volvo-wheels.com/product/volvo-s60-oem-15x6-5-aluminum-alloy-wheel-lysithea-rim-8622862/ - Specifications Hollander Part Number 70241 Volvo Part Number 8622862 V...

One final question -- Were 15" wheels pretty common on the nonT5 S70? (Or perhaps, easy to find?) And do I need to look into whether they will fit om my 98 T5 or will they be good to go as is? -- thanks much You have lots to choose from for the 850. - http://volvo-wheels.com/category/volvo-model/

Are we still trusting/using Eeuroparts after they are being backed by Newparts.com?

They are honoring all parts from previous purchases. Said business as usual. I haven't used their warranty / guarantee yet.

I just went from my summer wheels (16" with Goodyear Eagle GT's) to my winter wheels (15" with Michelin X-ice) and the ride is *dramatically* more comfortable. I no longer own this 98 T5. It was purchased with the T5 rims and old tires. Happened to see those 2001 V70 wheel on Craigslist for $300 wi...

That's very helpful, thanks! Good to know about the Dealer Trade - I think we'll buy from our local dealer.

Let us know how you make out!

Hi everyone, we're just about to buy an XC90 and I have a question! Our local dealership doesn't have the exact model that we want, but there is another dealership in the province that does have what we want. Should we buy direct from the other dealership? Or get our local dealership to buy the car...
