the car has been leaking oil for several months. Burning smell has become very strong. Use at least a quart every two weeks, probably more. Oil spot on ground overnight sometimes size of baseball. Not every time. Looks like along axle, right center. Have bottomed out with some potholes, one severe e...

I have a '95 850 turbo. This oil leak location is similar to one I have and I have been going through oil. Do all 850s have one seal? It seems that there are distinctions between engines manufactured for the '95 model year. And some of the replies seem to indicate that there may be two seals to repl...

The most difficult part was getting in to loosen the bolt by the seat that anchors the belt. I had not moved the seat up before disconnecting the battery. And the bolt is in an awkward location. You have to gently remove the trim piece on the side of the seat that has the seat adjusting buttons on i...

THe battery was disconnected for at least 20 minutes before I took out the old. Tried to get the tensioner to release before I bought new one. Had to drive without it for a few days then disconnected it for twenty min before I put in the new one[/u]

I just replaced mine. The part is available @ MySwedishParts.com. Ordered on Monday and had Wednesday.

My only issue is SRS light remains on. I assume it is a code or something.

Had an earlier post about repairing driver's side seatbelt. It is now done. Found the replacement from MySwedishParts.com for about 2/3 price of dealer. Not a difficult job, even for someone like me with minimal mechanical talent. SRS light remains on from when i disconnected the original belt appar...
