1995 Volvo 850 GLT Transmission

This is second time my son's 1995 850 GLT Volvo transmission has "slipped into Winter mode". I cannot get it to switch back - push button on the center console is unresponsive. Had this repaired once before (within last 18 months). Would like to better understand what is going on to ensure...

1995 Volvo 850 Glove Box

Car was backed into another hard enough to break the tail light assembly. Don't think related, but immediately after, could not get into the glove box. Ignition key turns freely in the glove box lock and the latch mechanism feels like it's functional, but no joy getting the door open. Any ideas? Tha...

1995 Volvo 850 GLT Starting Problems

Kind of a confusing issue with my sons 1995 Volvo 850 GLT. Battery removed and checked out OK. Car sometimes starts and sometimes doesn't. When it doesn't start, a jump solves the problem...? I have removed, cleaned and tightened battery cables. Still temperamental. One other item of note. Sometimes...

1995 Volvo 850 GLT Starting Problems - MORE INFO

One other item of note (see previous post on same topic). When the car does start, there is this lingering noise of something still spinning (from inside the car, it sounds like the fan blades tinging on something - but no, it's not the electric fan). From the engine bay, it sounds like it is coming...

1995 Volvo 850 GLT Starting Problems

Intermittent starting problems. Removed the battery, took it in and it checked out OK. Checked and cleaned connections. Have all dashboard lights, but no detectable clicking sound when the ignition is turned. Lights dim a little, making me think power is getting to the solenoid, but not to the start...

1995 Volvo 850 GLT Odometer

My 1995 Volvo 850 GLT odometer is stuck. Anyone know of any repair options for these odometers? If not, where can I source replacement odometers, either preset with my current mileage or set at 00.0? I suppose a used or refurbished one set at any number would be better than what I currently have. Th...

1995 Volvo 850 GLT Parts Questions

My teens drive a 1995 Volvo 850 GLT. First question: On the front left side of engine, there is a plastic hose (about 1" in diameter) with an accordian-like middle section. It cannot be rated for anything other than atmospheric pressure. Mine is cracked, but I can't find the name of this part a...
