LOL!

If you may come to Hungary, you should take some Graflex lens and accessories with you as well (I have a pretty long list of those)...

Re: P80 headlights Possible to Remove Headlight Reflector, rechroming discussion 8628402 8628403

I just did the refurbishment some weeks ago (ok... a company did it for me).
So I just had to remove the headlight and take out the reflectors. It was pretty straight forward. You just have to take out the headlight assemblies, and then taking out the reflectors. You just have to be careful not to ...

Re: 98 V70XC humming noise only when on throttle and cold

Hello all, I have the same symptoms...
For me it seems that it is a noise that is proportional to the engine rpm and only comes if the car was sitting for some days or there was rain or wet weather.
I have tried to catch it, but it was really just a faint noise today. When it was standing for 5 days ...

Re: Overboosting?

The WG setup is around 0.125 to 0.2 bar depending on the engine you have (there is an fcp or ipd video on youtube where you can find the proper value). The TCV (I mean ECU) is learning quite fast so it is adapting to the new setup to protect the engine. So the best should be the factory setup or ...

Re: 1998 S70 Intermittent vibration

No, it is a FWD. The tires and rims I would rule out as they are brand new, and the change from winter tires did not solved the issue, just made a bit improvement.
It is really not like an out of balance issue as driving with the same speed it comes for ~10 minutes and fades away (never complately ...

Re: 1998 S70 Intermittent vibration

Bump

The vibration is still present and getting more annoying (I am not surprised that the car did not heal himself).
Yesterday on the highway I was driving out to a petrol station and for a fraction of second it was like one of the wheels was jammed. It was a sudden "hit of a back-holding" force ...

1998 S70 Intermittent vibration

Hello all,

I need some advice, how to go on with a really annoying vibration issue.
Symptoms:
-The chassis vibrates from ~70km/h (~45mph), the steering wheel not
-The severity of vibration changes within some kilometres
-During braking I can feel the pulsation in the brake force (not in the brake ...

Re: 1999 S70 T5 - LTFT high

I had a leak after a check valve. Smoke did not show that as that had a slight overpressure, causing the valve to close. Although I did not had that high LTFT.

Re: 1995 850 Spark,fuel,compression and no start
