Re: Independent Atlanta area shops?

I swear I saw multiple place that the radio was part of the computer system and removal would cause error codes. Maybe I was dreaming that! Anyhow, the issue with the existing radio is not stickiness, but that it randomly changes stations or even inputs.

Re: Independent Atlanta area shops?

Chrism - Excellent, that's exactly what I was looking for. I've noticed Voluparts and will look them up if I need used. I'll definitely check into Professional. Rocco's European is right around the corner from me, but they weren't too confidence inspiring regarding Volvo when I called.

Abscate - I ...

Independent Atlanta area shops?

My wife and I have been agonizing over whether to buy a new SUV or keep her '02 V70. She has come to the decision that she loves the Volvo and hates car payments, so I am looking to pretty much restore it. Does anyone have any recommendations for Atlanta area shops? In particular, I want to fully ...

A/C Drier Fitting Won't Tighten

I have been working on replacing the drier on my '98 s90. After getting some larger wrenches, I finally managed to break the nut loos on the old one. Everything was going smoothly until I tried to tighten up the nut on the larger AC line to the drier. The nut fitting threads on easily for a couple ...

Re: AC blowoff

Yeah, AC doesn't thrill me either. My symptoms of the air being cool only at idle sounds like the clutch issue you refer to, but not sure that explains the pressure release. I think the first thing I am going to do is have the system evacuated, pull a vacuum and start from scratch. Just not sure ...

Re: AC blowoff

I do not see a blow off valve at all, so I'm somewhat at a loss as to where it came out.

Re: 1987 240 Engine “Threw a Rod”- Now What?

Glad to hear you were able to make the swap at a great price. You've kept this car in great condition and hopefully you can enjoy it for quite a while longer.

AC blowoff

I recently purchased a '98 S90 and the previous owner mentioned that the AC wasn't working properly. He mentioned that he had charged it and it worked for awhile but he then noticed a hissing noise and it quit. He then apparently added a can of freon and it was working, but only really cold at idle ...

Re: S90 Outside Temp -188F

Thanks for the info. I just ran the test and got the same 161 (solar sensor) code as the guy on the video. I'll have to take a look at the outside sensor when I have some daylight.
