OH! I think I failed to mention earlier and it may not have ANY effect on the issue, but the "W" switch isn't working. The light doesn't come on and the "D" doesn't change to a "W" when it's pressed. But I'm pretty sure that's just a computer setting that changes the wa...

Thanks!
I’m not Sure how I missed communicated that I was driving 40,000 miles a year. But I will wait to see what other responses are thank you!

I did take it to a local mech. I’ve pretty much always done the work myself on this. It’s not an issue of not having the cash. I’m not really looking for budget advice. I can take this to the junk yard and get another one for about $3000. I don’t want to spend $2000 to fix something if I don’t have ...

I have a 2001 XC70 with about 290,000 miles on it. I have done almost all of my own maintenance on the car since I purchased it from a one owner about 100K miles. It rides and drives great. The other day I was driving along at about 30 mph as I was accelerating moderately. (I've never been a heavy f...

Did you replace the bevel gear and sleeve? What you're describing is exactly what mine is sounding like. I don't seem to have any issues with the axle however. I just get this sound (almost like something rubbing on plastic) when I get up to about 30 mph I start hearing it. Then slowing down it gets...

Mine was doing exactly the same thing. This worked for me. first try: roll window all the way up and then hold window switch in up position for 5 more seconds. If not successful then: find fuse for the driver's door module, place the fuse puller tool or needle nose pliers on it, auto up or down the ...

Thank you! The car was on a very level area. Same place I checked the fluid for my 2003 XC70 and the fluid level on that one was spot on. I was planning to change the fluid on both of them pretty shortly anyway. But I was just shocked when I saw the fluid so high and thought that maybe there was som...

Hello everyone. I'm brand new to the forum and it's already been REALLY helpful. I have two XC 70's. One is a 2001 with 247,000 miles the other is a 2003 with 169,000 miles. The '01' is in great shape over all. But it's starting to develop some shifting issues (big surprise). I have a new Servo cove...
