1999 V70XC Homemade smoke tester

I made my smoke tester out of a plastic bucket that has a rubber o-ring inside the cover. I got it from the grocery store. It had pickled meat in it but any bucket with a gasket in the lid will work. I drilled two 2 inch holes in the lid. I used 4 quick connects that are used on pneumatic tools, 2 m...

Re: 1999 V70XC Transmission woes.

I think it figured out. I had a rotor on the driver's side that was unevenly warn. It was causing the ABS to take a bad reading. I still think this thing is a bit possessed. :) Carrying on regardless. Here's to you.

Re: 1999 V70XC Transmission woes.

You were right on the money with the wheel sensor. I checked both sensors with an ohm tester and the passenger side was dead. I swapped it out with one off my spare car that tested OK and now everything is working A1. All dash lights are off. I now sometimes notice a pulsing in the brake pedal when ...

Re: 1999 V70XC Transmission woes.

Hey there Matt. I received the ABS module yesterday. I disconnected the battery and installed it with no problems. I've had it off in the past. When i reconnected the battery & went 4 a test run, all the dash lights were off. The speedometer only registered half the speed in which i was travelin...

Re: 1999 V70 XC EVAP j-hose location

I just recently replaced my J-hose on a 1999 V70xc. It is located above the gas tank in the rear. The easiest way to get at it is to remove the bolt on the fuel filter and either move it out of the way or remove it all together. Then you will be able to look in and see the back of the charcoal canis...

Re: 1999 V70XC Transmission woes.

So how are the two modules different. If I install the module that you sent to me, will it make my car work OK? May it trigger any engine/transmission codes? I don't mind waiting extra time for the correct part. Sorry about the confusion. I was almost sure that I ordered the one for AWD.

Re: 1999 V70XC Transmission woes.

So here's an update. I figured that I'd drive it with the old transmission, black fluid and all until it finally kicked the bucket. Then i would swap it out with my spare. After driving it for another week, the reverse gear started returning with about a 7 second delay. After returning home after a ...
