Hi All,

The seats in my 2001 V70 t5 are in need of repair, just too many little rips.
I have located a pair of seats from a 2005 V70R.

I can't get to them to do any measurements, so thought I would turn to the forum.
Would these fit? I would prefer to be able to bolt them in and have everything ...

I hope there are no extra holes.
I did look at a digram and there seem to be just four holes low on the door.
Now that I have it home and can look, the upper edge on the x/c trim seems to be glued on to the door. Oops. The door structure does seem to be the same and the paint is good, so if I can ...

Well, I feel silly.
I didn't even notice the 2 12mm bolts on the door side of the hinge.
I did watch a video of how to remove the door, and it showed removing the T-47's on the hinges, so that was my focus.
I expect that the E torx bolts are used on some models and the 12MM on others.
I'll make ...

Good to know about the E torx, didn't know they existed. Mine hinge bolt looks like this, but I really didn't notice what the donor car has. It might not be a bad idea to pick up an E torx set before I go to the yard, just in case.

Hello All,
This week I visited a pick and pull yard that had been closed due to the pandemic, but has reopened the DIY area. I was looking for s mall part and hadn't really thought of the bigger picture, till I got there and saw that the vehicle I was getting an interior floor handle from, was the ...

Score another one for the Matthewsvolvosite braintrust!

I awoke to several suggestions that pointed me in the right direction.

Battery is good, new in July 2019.
Maf cleaned in the last year or so ago.
ETM Xemodex repair Sept 2018
I do have an OBDII scanner that is hooked up in the car, but I didn ...

Geartronic, so basically an automatic.
Did use the key fob, so I'll try the key in the lock when I go back to it tomorrow.
Thanks, for the nudge for extra info.

Added info: no bottoming out, nothing fell off, no drips under car, slight smell of gas after trying to start several times (flooded?) No random liquids out of place under the hood.
It's a 2001 car, sometimes I have to flip the key over to get it to turn. Other times, the key sticks when the ...

Hello everyone,

I hope someone has had a similar experience, or knows a solution that can be shared.
We are looking at my 2001 V70 T5 249,000 miles.
This afternoon, I crossed an intersection that had been repaved this summer. When they finished, the seaming between the cross street was left in ...

Hi June,
I can see where it will come in handy here in Oregon as well. There are several spots on around the state where you suddenly have to drop to 25 to 35 speeds for towns that are less than a mile long. I'm don't recall any that go so low as 15, you can't even use cruise control at that rate.
