pinkish color to Xenon headlight?

One of my headlights on my 2011 XC70 with the Xenon bending lights has taken on a pinkish color to it and I'm not getting a warning light on the dash. My question is whether that is just the bulb going out or is the ballast or something different? I've never had Xenon lights before so I don't know w...

Re: squeeky steering wheel

Yep, I had that for years. There's a bushing with bearings at the bottom of the steering wheel column inside the car, covered in a plastic plate. The only way to permanently fix it is having the boot and bearing replaced. I had a mechanic do it while replacing my subframe bushings. Some people have...

squeeky steering wheel

The steering wheel in my 98 S70 has a creeky groan inside the car when I turn it sometimes and it sounds like it's coming from right under the wheel near the dash. I recall reading something about it being a bad bushing or something but can't seem to find that post despite searching several times. A...

Re: What is the volvo part number for this stupid bulb?

That is volvo part number 9166336. The ECC bulb is: 9454848 and is a much longer bulb. Well the bulb itself is probably the same but the socket is much longer on the 9454848. Please note that if you look on FCPEuro, you can find part number 9166336 but it cross references with the ECC bulb number o...

Re: What is the volvo part number for this stupid bulb?

The Ebay link is for electronic climate control bulbs and this is for the manual climate control bulbs. They're different and they don't interchange.

I guess I didn't look close enough at those bulbs because at Second Glance those appear to be the right ones. I appreciate your help

Re: What is the volvo part number for this stupid bulb?

Yeah I know this is very different than the ones that go on the switches. Those are super tiny and on Robert DIY he showed how to fix those. This you can't fix unless you replace it

What is the volvo part number for this stupid bulb?

I've been desperately trying to find these bulbs. The dealership wants $11 each and every car I find in the junkyard has the electronic climate control and this bulb is for the manual climate control. I can't swallow the $11 each for these bulbs unless I absolutely have to. Can anyone help me with a...
