Re: 1998 S70 EVAP and Other Emission Tests

I finally passed the emission test. All monitors are ready now. I followed the procedure above and completed all tests in one day. The key is to keep a steady throttle and follow the procedure pasted above. Repeat the procedure until all the monitors turn ready. Sorry for rambling before, but I'm j...

Re: 1998 S70 Volvo branded or Mobil DEXIII ATF?

I know Walmart ATF is a decent oil. However, I read from a forum that Walmart in Canada sources recycled oil from local refinary and named their products Tune-It instead of Supertech. So, I am looking for an alternative choice.

Re: 1998 S70 EVAP and Other Emission Tests

850 LPT,

Have you passed the emission test?

Try find a least busy highway/freeway and drive at a speed with steady throttle. Find an exit and idle at a nearby gas station/street. You can repeat the procedure until they monitors are "ready".

1998 S70 Alarm Remote do not work

My alarm remotes are not working. I tested the alarm by locking the door with the key. The red light was flashing and it sounded when I opened the door. Yet, the remotes do not see to work. I think the programming for the remotes were screwed up for some reasons. Is there a way to re-program the rem...

Re: 1998 S70 EVAP and Other Emission Tests

Thanks, abscate. Also, my speedometer and odometer are not working since both ABS and TRAC lights are on. I am looking for a ABS module replacement/repair.

1998 S70 EVAP and Other Emission Tests

My car recently failed emission test due to large vacuum leak in the EVAP system. I had the purge and vent valves, and all the hosts replaced. The error code code was cleared.

Thanks for the help. Cabin air filter was the cause. It was too dirty.

Happy and safe driving everyone!!!
