Volvo Repair Database Video Write Ups

Post by polskamafia mjl »

Hey guys, I came across these videos via another member of this forum. They are mostly for newer Volvo's specifically the 70 series so I thought I would share them with you.

Gotta change my rear lights because they have a hairline crack in them. I think it's letting little bits of water in..

Excellent, thanks much for posting. Wanted to know how to change ABS sensor. I looked at your abs module post and it helped me take my module out. Any future vids related to XC70 will also be much appreciated.

Cheers

Thanks Pafro. I'll remove this from the Repair Database unless someone knows where these have gone, if anywhere.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

I think so. If not, it's still a very useful set of videos.
