Amalthea wheels, or similar - anything to fit my 2002 V70 T5. Must be true and straight. Volvo or aftermarket considered. Wheel and tire packages considered. Rash and scratches OK, commensurate with age. Must ship to Florida.
Thanks!

Thanks! Yeah it was surprising. I guess fans don't use a lot of current.

Wow, I've never seen this. Two times, that I know of, I've had my car off, for more than several minutes - as much as 45 minutes or so, and come back to the car - and the blower is on blowing air into the cabin! It's not an engine fan.

No one with aftermarket recommendations? I think the offset is 49mm.

I need a whole new set of wheels - mine are banged and rashed up. Should I look for Volvo wheels on eBay or is there an aftermarket that is recommended? What is the offset of the wheels? I don't want caliper clearance and rubbing issues with aftermarket
Any for sale? They are 17". Thanks.

Followup: My front end needed control arms. She's good to go now. Luckily, one of the noises in the back was the jack bouncing around - the shocks back there are new.

Have you ever heard the old addage that changing the ATF can ruin an older car? Where did that "wisdom" come from?

Waffleshill: Throwing it in neutral and back would help it?? Using sport mode? My 911 stops in 2nd and never shifts to first. Does the Volvo T5 do that?

Tell me about your 2001-2002 with auto that has not had issues. Or, do they ALL break?

The "gold" one was not the gorgeous gold you're referring to. It was the champagne gold as seen on every mom's minivan and Camry. I would have bought Maya in a heartbeat for a premium!

If it's a AW55 car you're probably in for a transmission soon... There's a reason they're ultra cheap. Yep. I had an '04 Nissan Maxima which I beleive had the AW55 and it was a rock with no issues ever. Obviously hoping for the same. The Volvo shifts SO smoothly and seemlessly, I can't forsee it br...
