Timing belt tensioner count as "timing belt"? That's what went out on my gf's c70, I didn't know anything about cars back then, we bent her valves =(
With my car, current broken things to fix :
-Blower motor
-Fuel pump seal
-Rear wiper assembly (motor working fine but shaft where the wiper arm attach is locked due to salt)

Hi
This is my 1st post. Just bought a 01 V70 T5 and the back seat, behind the passenger seat, (the larger one) refuses to fold down..the mechanical slider on the edge does show that red little thing popping up but it does not fold..any ideas ?

Some of these are simply maintenance items, but they still needed replacement on our car:
- rear wiper washer motor
- rear brake calipers
- tailgate attachment clips
- ball joints & control arm bushings
- gas cap door hinge
- shifter button
- headlight wiper motors (not replaced)
- driver's seat heater (has a nice charred spot)
- dash to firewall mounts cracked
- headliner delaminating
- throttle body (fixed under warranty)
- cv boots
- O2 sensors
- ABS module (thanks Matty Moo)
- struts

I don't really understand the point of this poll (even though I took it). My car is a 99 and has about 200k miles. I would consider most of this list as normal stuff that would wear out and need to be replaced on most cars over the last 11-19 years. Some of this is just normal maintenance.

i thought I had a charging system problem, but found the courtesy lights on the door were not turning off when the door was closed. Had to put my eye right on the door crack to see it. I have now removed it. Same with the courtesy lights near the feet on both sides. Some courtesy!
Currently in a indy shop. Casualties :
starter (now rebuilt)
AC compressor (old was so seized that it caused the death of the starter from what my indy told me).
The good thing is that with the new ac compressor, I can finally have a working AC soon.
