2001 V70 XC AWD

This is the best Volvo site on the net ... I've had a '94 855 Turbo (250 km) for the last two years - and with the help of this site, avoided many costly 'dealer visits' just by pulling and clearing codes and fixing the problem on my own. Now for a question: I'm planning on upgrading and have an opp...

It seems to come up when I have driven the car for a longer period of time (enough to get the engine hot). The smell doesn't come until I get back in the car a little while later, but while it is still warm. There is no sign of any smoke. Thoughts?

I've read on this site that there are smaller hoses connecting to the Turbo unit that break down over time from the oil. Is this the same problem your speaking about or are you referring to the actual Turbo unit leaking oil? Thanks for the help.

I have a 1994 850 Turbo Wagon - with what seems to be the same problem. I don't get it all the time though and can't seem to find the cause. Have you found out anything yet?

Another Keyless Remote Question ...

I have a 1994 850 Turbo Wagon and recently purchased a second key fob on ebay. I have tried to program it to my car using the 'turn the key to position II (on) five times and then press any button on the remote' method but with no success. I would assume my receiver is working properly because my or...

1994 850 Turbo Wagon - CD Changer install

I have the changer, the 8 din and power cord, SC 810 Head Unit w/ cd control. I want to install the changer in the storage bin horizontally. Do I just install the changer to the flimsy board the covers the spare tire? Also, what is the best way (and steps) to get the cord up to the head unit? Thanks,

1994 850 Turbo - Radio Replacement

The head unit for the radio (SC-810) on my 1994 850 Turbo needs to be replaced. It doesn't have a CD changer and I don't want to incur the expense of replacing the head unit as well as adding the changer. My question - does the radio with the in-dash CD from a 1996 850 (model SC-815) have the same d...
