Stock. It's an SC-901.

My car's got a weird electrical problem i'm having trouble tracking down. Whenever something that briefly draws a large amount of current switches on (radiator fan spinning up, headlights or high beams heating up, and at seemingly random other times), the radio emits a deafeningly loud staticky pop ...

Thank y'all for advice, it's quite helpful. I've already got IPD sway bars and HD end links, installed with IPD poly subframe bushings in 2016 or so, and Koni Yellows that still have plenty of life in them.

I need to remove the panel to get to the latch. I need to get to the latch to open the ...

I enjoy doing ill-advised desert adventuring in my '98 V70R, but I'd love to be able to self-extract easily with a ground anchor if I ever get stuck. I got stranded once and I refuse to get stranded again.

Has anyone successfully mounted a winch to a P80?

(1) It is totally normal to have oil in the piping. Unless it is flooded with oil, it is probably fine. And these TD-04HL turbos are extremely hardy, unlikely to have blown seals though of course it is possible.


Unfortunately there's more oil than usual seeping out of the pipe, and my oil ...
