Re: 2015 XC60 T6 48600 miles

600 miles out of warranty, taking it in next week for evaluation; if it is rings or worse, going to ask for "Volvo goodwill" as I'm sure the problem began before warranty expiration.
thanks for your info,

Re: parking bulb on C30 2008

many thanks, will keep this for ref when this happens again;
seems I went through heavy rain right after this post and the light started working again; my work load has lessened

thanks again,

parking bulb on C30 2008

Bulb not working, it appears I need the hand of a 5 year old person to get to the location to remove the bulb. Any suggestions?
