I'm not trying to bash them, they were very helpful to me when I originally purchased the shaft. Very knowledgeable, and even waved the core charge since I didn't have a core. I checked the boots and they appear great. Just somehow they lost the grease, not blaming them although it may have sounded ...

I own two identical '99 XC70's. I just removed both prop shafts to compare them. The one that went bad had slung grease around both end vc's. This has caused them to dry out and get stuck. The other known good one is old but the ends move freely. I'm thinking the vc's Colorado drive shaft used were ...

Removing it this weekend. It feels as if the center U-joint is locked in an angle or something and stayes that way while driving. No matter how slow I go, it hits the bottom of the car. It doesn't seem to be an "out of balance" situation. If it was out of balance I would think it wouldn't knock at ...

I know this is an old thread but, I bought a props haft for my '99 from Colorado drive shaft two years ago and it has already failed. It feels like it binds up. Not sure I want them to repair it. I found a local drive shaft shop here where I live I may try out.

My wife's V70 xc 184,000 is having a starting issue. When cranking it stutters and fires a bit but not enough to to start it. A week ago she complained that it began running rough so I put it in the garage and pulled the etm. I noticed the etm wasn't clicking when the ignition was turned on and ...

I drive a 2001 XC70 and it has been a great car. I have over 200k and have had no big issues, only the normal maint. AWD is original and gets used every winter here in northern Indiana, I cleaned the ETM once but have never had a problem with it. Never had any trans issues and never had it flushed ...

Cool, my kids love learning with dad too, have fun!

I agree with you LEE.

There is a sticker on the motor that says 22137253 and a date of 9-25-98 My car is a '99 so I highly believe that motor with that date is original and not a replacement. But if one can replace that motor with a $20 Delco then, hey mucho money saved.

A couple weeks ago my wifes blower motor completely stopped working. The temp outside was in the 90's and very humid, so I was encouraged to fix the problem quickly.

I hooked up VIDA and confirmed the fan speed switch was working properly so I narrowed it down to the resistor or blower. (I had ...

Thanks MacNoob.
