Re: ETS light on and engine races at start

OK, more info. I renewed my Volvo subscription for my Autel AP200. I got the following codes. Seems the 2001 and 2004 use the same accelerator pedal assembly, so I will pull the pedal from the 04 parts car when I get a chance and put it into the 01. I may have just answered my own question. If I ...

ETS light on and engine races at start

2001 C70 Convertible LPT ~60K miles.

I've been searching in vain to find a thread that addresses the issue I am having. It all started when I was experiencing problems with my Immobilizer. It seemed nothing I did would fix the issue and after swapping the ring antenna and fuel pump relay just for ...

Re: Stereo FAQ

Really? Nothing?

How about a forum with more C70 owners?

Stereo FAQ

Is there a resource anywhere for the the first generation C70 stereo systems? I have a 2001 C70 convertible with the "standard" stereo that I am quite happy with, but I would like to possibly add the factory optional subwoofers behind the rear seat. I'm trying to find out what I need for an "OEM ...

1998 V70 GLT P0108 P0300 & Flashing Check Engine Light

My girlfriend was driving her 98 V70 GLT light pressure turbo 209K over to the beach on Sunday in 90 degree plus weather, stop and go traffic, and a low mountain pass of about 1800 feet. We live less than 100 feet above sea level. Her car started dying and the CEL was flashing. She pulled over and ...

Re: remote keyless entry re-programming.

I always hate to necropost, but maybe somone will see this. A friend just bought a 98 V70 with no remote and picked up a remote off ebay. Her closest dealer quoted $90 to program the car.

I was just wondering if anyone ever tried swapping the receiver unit from an older car, say a 94 or 95 into a ...

Re: 1995 855T possible bad tranny.

I thought of that also, but it was apparently towed on a flatbed.

In what ways would heat transmitted from the trans oil cooler to the tranny possibly cause this?

1995 855T possible bad tranny.

So, I'm helping a girlfriend out with her 1995 turbo sedan. I have had the same car in a94 for ten years now, so I know my way around them pretty well, but I'm stumped.

Someone else was driving the car, so I have only a third hand account of what happened, but basically the water pump blew out and ...

Re: '95 850 ECC system stopped working

Thanks Lee.

The motor tested good. I had it completely out thinking it was bad and it ran fine with no noise when connected to 12V. I will double check with the short method before I put in a new power stage.

Cheers!
