Its pretty insane that you can get fluid to flow through the front brakes lines at all. You could have a clog in the line or yes it could still be the ABS pump. And without more information im not sure what the bleeding procedure is. That scan tool might be able to actuate the ABS to start moving fl...

Was at the stealership to order a valve stem kit, camshaft seals and spark plug seals. When I asked about the special Volvo gasket for the valve cover, he said that they don’t sell it anymore. It’s been outsourced to wurth now. The genuine stuff is still for sale at skandix, so I’ll order that ther...

Without knowing trail blazer anatomy, I would be concerned about bad brake hoses collapsed internally or air trapped in the ABS system if it has one. Typically a bad brake booster should have a hard pedal as there is no vacuum assist to help. I find the power bleeders are far more convenient than va...

Tonight I took the rear wheels off and couldn't find anything wrong with the calipers or rotors. The parking brakes were a little loose so adjusted that. And now it see...

When looking at the OE version for the xc90 2.5T, on FCPs website there was at least 1 review saying it works on their 850. So maybe that would be an option for someone.

Do you think this would work in my 2005 xc90 with the 5 cylinder turbo engine?
