Re: 98 V70 front seatbelt buckle sticks

Bart @ VCNA, this one's for you. I have this problem with all three of our Volvos including a low mileage 06. Volvo does not seem all that concerned. You might think that a manufacturer that has touted safety since day one including all of the modern day accident avoidance systems, etc. would at lea...

Re: DIY: 1998 S70 GLT Turbo Coolant Hoses and 2 Radiator Hos

I think that I have decided to play smart for once. I monitered the area and deetermined that there is not any seepage, ran a bead of silicone caulk around the perimeter of the threaded interface, and have decided to call it a day. I will have to say that the mention of an allen wrench in the last p...

Re: DIY: 1998 S70 GLT Turbo Coolant Hoses and 2 Radiator Hos

That certainly is my concern. I was thinking along the screwdriver line, maybe an easy-out of the right size? I will wait for the new valve to arrive, study it...and then formulate a plan. Thanks for the input.

Re: DIY: 1998 S70 GLT Turbo Coolant Hoses and 2 Radiator Hos

I would, but it seems (looks) as if there is a small bit of seepage. I have a new one on the way, and my preference would be to coax this one out and replace it.

Re: DIY: 1998 S70 GLT Turbo Coolant Hoses and 2 Radiator Hos

So, if you heeded the warning and stayed away from the radiator petcock when draining the coolant, BUT, as you were turning over under the car your shoulder bumped the radiator petcock and broke it off to the point that what is left in place (the threaded portion) is somewhat recessed in the radiato...

Re: Volvo 850 Turbo Coolant Hoses Replacement Time

Hey. Should I drain both the radiator and the block before replacing the turbo coolant hoses? After draining coolant, will there still be a lot of spillage when replacing these hoses?
Thanks.
