2003 T6 Door Latch R&R

So, the Pass Door lock (electrical function) stops working, but all mechanisms are ok. I am thinking the latch module at fault - it includes the electrical door lock/unlock function in one integrated unit. Ok, so with door panel removed and the 3 @ T30 FH screws holding the latch, this should be a p...

Re: 2000 V70 center speaker removal

Re: 1998 C70 2.3L Climate Unit Blower Petered Out

Hello Neil - Many thanks for these tips! I figgr'd I was in for a blower removal and inspection in any event and, no, to my knowledge the blower has never been replaced. So, yup, it is old! There is also a "resistor" module but I am uncertain regarding its exact function; could this instea...

1998 C70 2.3L Climate Unit Blower Petered Out

Ok, yes, this is a fairly popular topic and I have searched through the archives on this site. The ECC unit has exhibited the 'blinking light' syndrome upon startup for some time now, and the system has always restored proper operation. Recently, the blower unit has been reluctant to start operating...

Re: Recomended MBC for Volvo 850 Turbo

Hey 97 - Thanks for yours. But... if it is the Turbosmart "Tee" MBC which is controlling the boost (nice looking little gadget BTW) how does the ECU tune hold or control the waste gate below 3k RPM?

Re: NGK Iridium plugs Heat Range 6 after 25k miles

Regarding Bosch Platinum plugs, I don't like 'em. I still experience occasional high-speed misfire with them, setting that pesky P0300, P0302, etc. I started removing and inspecting them and found the little screw-on caps which the plug wire snaps onto will vibrate loose, and I notice also some mann...

Re: Manual Boost Control opinions wanted

MBC+Properly Tuned ECU= LOTS OF FUN! of course stage zero and other little mods. Its all in the tune of the ecu! my ecu is tuned to only allow 3lbs in 1st and so forth, or once im passed 3000 rpm all hell breaks lose! Have my 850 gLT with the 13g turbo pushing 12 lbs of boost at 242 hp all day long...
