Re: Question - what part is this?

Hello, is it safe to drive and is it an easy fix? Safe to drive? no. That looks like a pretty big leak. Depending on what it is, if that fluid that is leaking runs out the car could be damaged beyond practical repair. It might be an easy fix, but not necessarily If I were you I'd have it towed to y...

Re: Question - what part is this?

That part is an air conditioner accumulator. There is not anything i it that can leak out and make that much mess. The a/c system only holds 7 oz or less of oil and the a/c would not be cooling. I think your power steering reservoir or a ose connected to it is likely the source of the mess. DO you ...

Question - what part is this?

Hello,

I have come back to ask what part is this and why is it leaking. It just started on Friday and I am concerned about driving it - is it safe to drive and is it an easy fix?
The pictures attached of the leaks I found under my car.

ETS light is on

While I merging onto the freeway the eta light came on but the car was driving fine while I headed to work, so I am confused on what it might be. What should you recommend I do? I don’t have a lot of money to fix my car since I’m a college student and I don’t wanna start pouring money into a car tha...

Re: 99 V70 XC hose blew off?

Yep, I've had that happen. Same thing as you, accelerating onto a highway... and bam, surprise! Your rubber connector there is undoubtedly original, so if it were me, I'd go ahead and replace it with a new OEM part and not worry about it again. Make sure it's fully seated before tightening hose cla...

Re: 99 V70 XC hose blew off?

So is the only part I need to replace is the intercooler hose inlet? I don't plan on having the car that long maybe a year or so, but it keeps breaking down on me then i am just going to sell it.

Re: 99 V70 XC hose blew off?

Is the charged air pipe easy to replace? And can someone link me to the part just to be sure 100% positive I am getting the right part.

99 V70 XC hose blew off?

While I was merging onto the freeway, my car just lost all power and I honestly thought it was a blown tire, but I opened the hood and I found out one of the hoses blew off or came loose while I was driving. I wasn’t even able to get 10 mph and while idling the car was shaking. The good thing is tha...

1999 V70 XC bad headlight switch?

I don’t know if this problem has been going with my car since I mostly drive during the day, but the headlights and the gauge cluster just died on me. But I noticed if I push down on the headlight switch the lights turn on for a second and then turn off again - I tried turning the car on and off aga...
