Google Maps shows as about a two hour drive down 87 (down as far as Suffern, and then east a little ways) or to Monroe and pick up the Palisades Parkway--we are just off Exit 13 on the Parkway. Or we could possibly meet part way--Monroe would be easy--at one of the mall parking lots--that would knoc...

Anyone interested make me an offer before they go into the trash?

Also--if anyone is interested, I have a decent front CV axle that needs tripod bearing replaced (and rebooted)--free to a good home.

Volvo P/N P9463752 off my 1999 V70 na

In reply to Oragex, thank you for your comments. The PCV on this car is a Mann-Hummel built unit. They are a huge company that among other things mfg a wide range of oil separation/crankcase pressure control systems for engines from small to high HP diesels. The unit is fairly complex, I have not s...

I found a bargain 2012 S60--misfiring and not driveable, but no more information than that. 150,000 miles, decent shape. I have not gone to look at it yet. Then I found the longish threads here and on Swedespeed about problems with oil consumption (and what sounds like cascade failure) on some 2012s...

Looks like it is on hold, or not going to be sold--had an email back from the seller that his daughter is reconsidering the sale. Problem is (as we know)--if you can't do the work yourself, it is hard to dig in to an older car like this and pay shop rates--she'd be better of getting a Toyota... Not ...

Haven't been hanging since we donated the V70--(Not completely rational--I seriously was on the way to the Emergency in such pain I thought if the car broke down, I would die on the side of the road--made me want newer and more reliable). So we picked up an Acura TSX wagon--optimistic that the car p...

Kept these for snows (that I never got)--and the Volvo is gone. Set of 4 OEM Volvo wheels--Official Volvo branded, 6Jx15x43, 5-lug holes. One is slightly different (oval cutouts); the others have the round holes. Could use a clean up and paint before install. If you look carefully, you can see one e...

Haven't been around for a while--sold the Volvo when I got to sick to wrench myself. This week I'm cleaning up, and found the Volvo CV axle OEM cores that I insisted be returned when I was forced to get axle replacements in a hurry. Since I have not looked at these for at least four or five years I ...

Thanks guys.

Just lost a week to a medical emergency. I'm coherent again and starting to look.

I have been keeping our 1999 going--but I have never really felt like it has been 100%. And my wife would really like A/C, and I don't feel like I have the patience to tackle that. Plus, the front end is still not 100%, despite an original rebuild, and a swap out of a subsequent failed control arm b...
