Re: What did you do to your Volvo today?
Wow, that's quite a difference. Something might be screwed up with the adjustment screw... or maybe the reflector isn't popped into the adjuster correctly?

Just became aware of an INternal memo from Volvo
Always use synthetic oil to lube lug bolts on Saurus wheels. No seize is better, but if you are stuck make sure the oil is synthetic.

Yeah I feel I remember that... man, that would have been a good value! Last I saw at Lowe's they were around $40-$50.

Fixed the locking on my car and found my remote fob. I spent the past few days going from rage, to calm, to the acceptance of losing my remote fob only to find it in the abyss between the seat and centre console. I proceeded to bypass the removed trunk lock by disconnecting a jumper, and jumpered the hood sensor to make it read shut (the wires became disconnected on the latch component. All of that boiled down to the sweet sweet light show that is a successful remote lock.

My favorite guy in NC got me some C70 seat skins in oak, and Evita got some new skins!
