Helps a ton. After reading up on the gearbox i almost wonder if it's worth it to swap my 2001 c70 transmission into it. Or if it just has a stigma.

Thats what i got initially, but here on this site in the transmission database it is listed as the AW55/50sn. And the same from IPD volvo.

Hey all! Today I embarked on an adventure to take it upon myself to fix a transmission on a 2000 V70 R. The generic code I am getting is P0762 "Shift solenoid "C" stuck open" The car seems that it doesn't want to shift into third (however i havent pushed the trottle that hard) an...

Well it's years later and here is the update/ solution: I traveled to a shop with the vida/dice system and their analysis proved to NOT be ETM related. It turned out to be the PNP switch. Yes, the one on top of the transmission. Apparently what was happening is my car didn't understand if I was in d...

I have a 1999 v70R can someone tell me what my wheel width is? I know its 16" high but how wide? I wanna put subtle deep dish wheelswheels on it while maintaining oem specs for obvious reasons.

Hey can anyone give me a link to the flange, hose, and gromit?

Hey all. I just purchased an incredibly clean 1999 v70r with 7100 miles and I have serious questions about performance upgrades. I also own a 1999 v70 xc fixer upper with 17600 miles. Are there any performace threads someone can post me to? I very much would like to pull some conventional wisdom fro...

We need the codes from the check engine light too. When you get poor running, you can get a bunch of codes, so dont freak if you have a 4 or 5. Get the actual codes, like P0442, not just the "need sensor" description. I picked up the bosch1050 bluetooth obd2 and downloaded the app. The on...

Allright, went back to the junkyard, grabbed a yellow sticker etm off of my same exact car. Finished putting it in about an hour ago

Same boat; runs superbly but after a few minutes ets light comes on and its crap. No longer accompanied by check engine.

thank you guys for the advice. Next step is to get a decent code reader. My findings of the day: ohms at the temperature sensor are 1092; a local volvo guru said they should be at 1600. Also took off the plastic cover to access spark plugs and its flooded with oil, along with bits of the brittle wir...
