Brake vaccum switch questions

S60 2003 base model here, the brake vaccum switch is broken and the connector can't be plugged in. As far as i know this will cause poor braking when the car is cold right?

My country has generally warm weather, would this cause serious braking issues? And will this affect overall braking when the ...

Re: Help me sort out this issue with the HVAC vents

I'm confused Enrique.

The system has two modes...recirc ( inside air) or outside air. Which one gives you flow when the car is stopped?


I'm sorry for the confusion, maybe i didn't explain correctly

With all my other cars i can feel wind blowing through the vents when going at some speed ...

Re: Help me sort out this issue with the HVAC vents

So upon close inspection the air does flow when having recirculating or outside air mode ON (no a/c nor fan) but it flows very little even when going at moderate speed. Is this normal? Or could there be something severely affecting air flowing through vents?

Re: Help me sort out this issue with the HVAC vents

I removed the cabin air filter just to test but air still doesn't flow through the center vents or any vent.

Air does flow when selecting a/c, it only stops flowing when recirculating or outside air only is selected.. am i missing something here?

abscate wrote:I don't have a schematic of the P2 climate motor, but on the P80 the AC evaporator ( cooler) is the first thing the air hits. The flow is determined by the flaps down stream. I think the P2 is the same. Stay tuned

Thanks a lot!

Help me sort out this issue with the HVAC vents

Good night all,

In My 2003 S60 air is not flowing through the vents when having the outside air or recirculating option enabled, however, it works when using a/c as i can feel air running through the vents. Why would it work with a/c only? Also i found this plastic tube by the passenger side close ...

Gas pump and overfilling

Hi, before I take the car to a shop I'd like to ask if there's something i can check. I have a 2003 S60 non turbo and when filling gas the pump would click and stop as if the tank was full (it's not). It feels as if the gases don't vent as sometimes i can see the gas returning and almost coming out ...

Re: Experienced Stalling and Rough idle, Replaced ETM and MAF, still stalling when warm

My car was also stalling randomly when braking to a stop (2003 S60 base engine) it turned out the hose on the map sensor was disconnected from the engine vaccum point, and it doesn't stall now plus it runs much better. Might be worth it to check vaccum leaks

So i go to open the car today and when i unlock the doors with the remote i see that the red alarm light is blinking fast. I lock the doors and it worked fine and car ran fine. Is this something related to a bad alarm system? I get the message "alarm system service required" in the dash? And is this ...
