Re: Curtain airbag deployed

Ahh - I should have added that detail. The car starts and drives. The SRS Airbag warning is displaying in the instrument cluster.

Curtain airbag deployed

Hi Friends - my son was in a fender bender with his 2007 S60 T5 and the driver-side curtain airbag deployed. The car is very fixable, but I'm concerned about successfully replacing the airbag. I can get a replacement airbag on eBay, though various forums seem to indicate that I need to also replace ...

Re: 97 850 T5 - Stalls above 2000 rpms; hard starting SOLVED

This is finally solved, though it was quite a random problem. The distributor rotor bolts had come loose, essentially creating a spark/timing issue. I guess a few months ago when I replaced the cap and rotor I didn't torque the rotor bolts down enough. While the solution was really simple, it took w...

Re: 97 850 T5 - Stalls above 2000 rpms; hard starting.

My code reader showed up yesterday. Unfortunately, the only codes captured were the misfire codes from a few weeks back: P1310, P0301, P0300. I've reset the codes, run the engine to operating temperature, but no new codes are showing up. Additional troubleshooting: - disconnected the MAF, which make...

Re: 97 850 T5 - Stalls above 2000 rpms; hard starting.

hmmm... I did top off, which is my usual routine, and I always go to a name-brand gas station. The only thing different was that I put 93 octane fuel in, whereas I usually run 87. I can't imagine that would have caused a problem (it should have helped it run better). Here in central Texas, 10% ethan...

Re: 97 850 T5 - Stalls above 2000 rpms; hard starting.

Thanks for the replies, guys. I've checked the intake hoses and turbo piping - all looks good. I also changed out the fuel filter this eve, but the problem persists. (The idea of it starving for fuel is why I was thinking clogged fuel filter.) My Actron code scanner should show up tomorrow eve, so h...

97 850 T5 - Stalling, hard starting MVSOLVED dist rotor bolt

Hey Volvo friends - sorry for the long description, I'm trying to provide as much context as possible. For the first time in 16 years, my 97 850 T-5 died while driving. I had just hit the gas hard when, after maybe two seconds of acceleration, it sputtered then stalled. I made it onto the shoulder a...
