Volvo Repair Database Free parts courtesy Swedish Motors in Boulder, Colorado

Post by matthew1 »

First, a big thanks to Swedish Motors in Boulder, Colorado, especially Sophie who contacted me to pick up these parts for MVS members. They've got a good Yelp rating (4.5).

A quick tour of Swedish Motors [mp4 movie, 10MB]

For the next 48 hours, MVS Contributors have the pick of the litter. After that, I'll open it up. MVS Moderators, I ask you opt out because you get cash money donations twice yearly.
  • Please don't pick with the intention of selling it. These parts are to help you or another Volvo owner with her/his car, to get it running or to keep it running.
  • No hoarding. Again, these parts are to help you or another Volvo owner with her/his car, to get it running or to keep it running.
  • Please no more than two parts per member.
  • You pay shipping at USPS. This can be as low as $8.
  • Please understand these parts are not known to work. They are not "known working" parts. You're taking a chance. However, they came from Swedish Motor's parts shelf, so at that time, they were known working.
  • US states and Canada.

If you roll your cursor over the photos, you'll get the name. Which will match this list:

If they invite me back to pick up more parts, what do you need? I can ask, they might not have it or might not want to give it away, but asking is ok.

If they fit, and they're available, I'd love to have them:

Gauge cluster 1a
ECU

Thanks

PS
I have an SRS light on. The mechanic said communication bus C. Does anyone know how to clear this????
