I had a front brake line break on me once, in a 1995 850.
Car was 20 years old at the time, luckily for me, I was not driving. I parked the car for 20 minutes, and when I started it and pressed on the break to put it in drive - I felt a small poof, and the brake pedal went down to the floor.

Re: Volvo or Bosch battery source.
I have bought the kirkland brand from Costco.
I think that it's made by Jhonson, so same as Varta.
Physical fit is very good.
Only had it for two years so far, I'll see how it holds over time.

Re: Cargo cover delaminating
I am thinking of trying a product called hh-66.

You can take your time after applying the glue, but, like contact cement, you only have one chance once both sides touched.
A bit hard to find in Canada, but I saw a local place that ...

Cargo cover delaminating
I have finally bought a cargo cover for my 855T off CL.
It have the tabs, and retracts fine, however, the cover itself is delaminating. I have searched this forum, and google, but did not see this problem mentioned, it looks like most of the covers are suffering from other mechanical failures.

Re: Where to get cargo cover side tabs?
Thank you Neil, I ended up buying the cover. It was the right color, and had the side mounts.
I cannot use it yet, because the end of the cover is delaminating :?
I have decided to buy it nontheless, and to try and fix it by glueing or sewing.
Will post another thread, as the problem got nothing to ...

Re: Where to get cargo cover side tabs?
I got more photos from the seller, and he does have the tabs. Can one of the moderators please mark this thread as 'solved' (at least for me)
I'm keeping my fingers crossed, hoping that the cover will be in a good state.

Where to get cargo cover side tabs?
Someone on CL is selling a cargo cover that I want to buy for my 850 wagon, however, it looks like the cover is missing the two side pieces with the portruding tabs. I looked online, and only see this sold as a kit: cover and two side pieces.
Does anybody know if the side pieces can be bought ...
