Memory is fading a bit as it's been many months since I did this job (and have since changed the car so couldn't check even if I wanted to) but I seem to remember my ducts having some double-sided tape holding it up - but I could be wrong and confusing it with the sound deadening. I do remember that...

The blower isn't behind the glovebox - it's pretty-well dead centre behind the dashboard. You need to take out the instrument cluster to access the plastic clip that stops you from rotating the blower motor out of engagement from the HVAC unit. You also access the main electrical connector to the bl...

I can absolutely confirm that they are T25; as said in my piece above I actually bought a 200mm long T25 bit to facilitate the task. I think the confusion arises because a T20 bit will fit in the recess of a T25 screw and still engage and turn it, but would probably strip the recess if you tried to ...

Yes. I sold the car.

Now have a V60 CC T5 AWD Polestar

Hi. Looking for any help. My car is a 2008MY P3 V70 SE with the Premium Audio DynAudio system. A couple of days ago I noticed that the reverse parking sensors were working in that the coloured bars and distance showed on the reversing camera screen but there was no beeping; however the radio still m...

Just looking for a little help and confirmation. My 132k-mile V70 has developed an issue with the power steering. During normal driving all is well, and the selectable three-level steering force works as normal; however, when manoeuvring into tight spaces requiring lots of lock at low revs and crawl...

Variations for RHD cars I have just completed this job on my RHD P3 2007 V70 D5 (it's one of the earliest of the Gen III V70s) and this thread was invaluable - kudos to VCA. However, there were some differences so I thought I'd outline them here for anyone in the UK or other RHD markets who wants t...

Big "thanks" shout out to Pierre for sending me the RHD VIDA files. Just for everyone's info at first sight there doesn't appear to be any different instructions or steps in the RHD instructions from the LHD.

Pierre, you're a star.

Sorry can’t help you mine is a LhD but I can tell you that access to bolts was challenging. I used a little swivel ratchet. Thanks for the info and answering. I don't mind challenging; I don't mind working by feel; but I couldn't even guide the Torx driver bit into the recesses of the screws with t...

Can I ask if anyone has tried this on a RHD? I live in the UK with an '08 V70 D5 with 124k miles on the odo and a noisy fan. I bought the parts and fan tool and used the instructions in this thread (thanks and kudos to VCA for the information) plus a YouTube video I found and, while getting the carp...
