plugs are $60 at FCP? wow. I just bought Volvo plugs from them Friday for my 03 S60 and they were half that. I know the 06 is a turbo, thicker head and a different plug, but I'm surprised it would be twice as much. I like FCP, but I'd shop around at that price.

Plugs had 1.05 to 1.2mm gaps, so I regapped and reinstalled to 30 Nm. Ran better, but not nearly good enough. This time however, Vida identified cylinder 5 misfire in addition to multiple cylinder misfires.

I bought a new Bosch coil and Volvo plugs. That appears to be it, runs very nicely now ...

Try taking the thermostat out again, and here's why: I think it's possible to put thermostat gasket on one side of thermostat ( instead of around it with the major OD of thermostat fitting in the gasket slit) and you can get enough leakage to partially circulate into the radiator. It's an easy thing ...

This problem popped up suddenly right after I went through a big puddle Monday morning. Could be a coincidence, not sure. Vida gives me ECM? 3502 and 3503 multiple cylinder misfire messages. Last night I pulled the coils and plugs(NGK) and inspected carefully. You really couldn't notice any ...

I bought my DICE unit on ebay. Hardware was OK, but I could not install. Tried everything I could think of.

Well, my 850 can be pushstarted quite easily. In fact, it can be done in reverse!

Well, better late than never, but SUCCESS!!! Replacing the crank sensor did the trick. Stupid me, I checked the resistance of the sensor and it being about 280 ohms, I figured it was probably OK and I moved on to looking at other things. The new CKS (a cheapo) measured 304 ohms, but of course, there ...

2003 S60 5-sp. LF axle free from control arm and front hub. Is it just retained in transaxle with collapsible spring clip on axle end so I can pull it out? sorry about the noob question, just don't want to break it. BTDT

BTW, tranny never separated by me, DEFINITELY not by previous owner.

Thanks Jimmy, hadn't thought about the magnetic field of the starter. I should definitely swap out the CKS. I haven't yet because the only codes I have gotten are 214 and 314. Also, other posters have mentioned the grounds. Yes, the 2 straps at rear of engine are kind of green and sh***y. The ...
