I took it into Jiffy lube to have the radiator serviced. That was about a week ago and the A.C. was EXTREMELY cold after that. Before this happened, I posted a topic stating how I was seeing the air condensing while coming out of the vents, looking like a smokey substance. I was wondering if Jiffy L...

98 volvo S70 pipe cracked...

I had the airconditioning on yesterday and when I got home, I noticed water leaking badly from beneath the car. I believe that the airconditioning was so cold that it cracked the pipe. Does anyone know what this will cost to replace, or have fixed?

Thank you, Chad

I just purchased a 98 S70 and the Rotors and Breaks needed to be replaced as well. It has 69,000 miles on it so I would say that it isn't unusual for the mileage. The dealership had it done before I bought the car and they didn't say anything about the Calipers. I actually have no idea what those ar...

Smokey substance coming out of air vents.

I was driving back to work from lunch today and I had the A.C. on. A light (what looked like) a smokey substance started to come out of the vents. I just had the radiator serviced and the A.C. seems to be working very well. When I turned the A.C. off and then on again, it went away for the last five...

That sounds pretty strange.. I have read in Consumer reports and other reviews of S70's that they were having problems with headlights and turn signals not being attached very well and shutting off, or burning light bulbs incredibly fast, but I don't understand what the weather has to do with it. Le...

I own an 1998 S70 and I have not had any problems with the lights so far.. (knock on wood) Although, I have read things in consumer reports and other reviews saying that the S70 is known for having electrical problems concerning the head lights, turn signals not being connected very well. You would ...
