Re: Weird gas pedal response

There are no check engine lights or codes. The car does surge at red lights and the rpms drop down to almost zero and jump right back up again but i don't now if these are all related.

Weird gas pedal response

My car, 2001 V70 XC70 with 144,008 miles. When i give gas to go up a hill, on the highway say, the tach goes up and the car starts to accelerate, then the tach drops and the car immediately slows down. this is not cool when merging into traffic... i'm wondering if it's a MAF sensor. My father seems ...

Re: 2004 2.5T AWD XC90 Muffler Replacement

You would think that the aftermarket companies would have the muffler for the AWD cars as well considering most of them are AWD. In fact I've never seen a FWD xc90 in person.

Re: 2004 Volvo XC90 T6 Here goes nothing

I couldn't agree more with FLXC90, it's not a matter of if, it's when. Although I haven't had sun roof drain issues, my flood issues were the a/c condenser drain in front of the gas pedal. I've had mine since Sept 2012, it had 139,xxx miles on it when i got it, I have almost 240,000 now. So far I've...

Re: 03 XC90 DIM swap issues

Thanks for the suggestions, I did disconnect the battery for about an hour and nothing changed. Also the alarm message came up when the original DIM went on the fritz. I have a local shop here in town that specializes in Volvo and is way less expensive than the dealer so I may have them have a look ...

03 XC90 DIM swap issues

Hi all, I've been having issues with my instrument cluster going dead on me so i finally bit the bullet and replaced it. I got one from my local salvage yard, these cars are very hard to find in the bone yard around here, by the way. So the one i got came out of a 2004. I've read a few different opi...

Re: AWD Problem

Just to clarify, if the drive shaft turns freely by hand when in park then my problem is the the sleeve presumably and not the Haldex, is this correct?

Re: 2004 XC90 Left side radio backlights out

I don't have any wiring diagrams but i do know this is a rather common issue with these radios. A tip I got from someone was to get your bulbs from a Honda dealer. They're the same bulbs and only cost about $2 each. I bought everyone my local Honda dealer had in stock. Volvo gets $12 each. Not sure ...
