Today I cleared my recurring two codes for the fuel tank vent problem. Someday I should address this with some actual parts replacement.
I also wiggled my right rear position light in the socket to clear the bulb failure warning notice.

Today I removed my 2001 V70 badge for 100,000 miles and replaced with 200,000 mile badge. I have it installed on the dash at left corner.
Old badge:
New badge:
Mileage confirmation:
But nothing is ever quite as simple as it seems at first. When I attached the 100K badge, I used some kind of tough double stick foam tape. I pried up the old badge with a putty knife and thought I was careful. See what damage I caused to the dash. The new badge will cover the damage.

Recovered ‘06 V70’s A pillars with new fabric. Could not find light grey so I went with dark grey. Cost was about $22 for materials. Thanks to oragex for YouTube A pillar removal procedure.

Thanks, if anybody needs fabric I’ll send it to you (free). It came 3’x 5’ and only needed 1’.

Put some new Lesjofors springs and OEM Sachs struts in this morning. My ride height went from 28 inches at the wheel moulding to 29 3/4. My old springs were definitely pretty saggy! I was also going to do the rear struts today but decided to get some new springs for the back after seeing how much it lifted the front.
