What did you do to your P2 Volvo today?

Hot today and with the 08 sitting in the sun broke out my gallon jug of Lexol and gave the black leather a good rub down. Interior is in great shape for 140k miles but was a bit on dry side when I bought it so this is the second time in a few months to bring some moisture back.

Doesn't hot black leather and heat cause sweat, giving the seats some natural moisture?

Thankfully the AC works great on that one, the other 2002 S60 needs some shimming of the AC clutch as it keeps kicking out and clutch measures past spec, the next project. Tan interior in that one so a bit more tolerable.

I like my tan leather. It can get hot, but not too hot that I can't sit in the seat.

My AC compressor makes some strange noises when it kicks on until it kicks off. No sounds from it when it's turned off. I haven't looked into what the problem may be with it. I don't like how hard it is to get to, so I haven't messed with it.

You may have a crash recorded. Volvo does not support erasing SRS crash data, though DIY guys can do it.

I don't think it's ever been in a crash. I only replaced the SIPS because the wiring was cut, I'm assuming from the seat?

Can you read the SIPS code that is present?

Was SRS-0034, SRS-00D5, SRS-0105 and had red lights for each with the bad SIPS. Now it has green lights for each from the good SIPS, I just can't clear the SRS light.

UEM-0004 is the only other code I have, which I have a brand new Volvo siren to replace the old one with. A project for this next weekend.

Mine makes some funny noises too! Can definitely hear it when its engaged. Can also feel a jolt in the drive when it kicks in

I scored at the pick a part this past weekend. I picked up the dog/cargo net option that goes in the rear seats of my XC. Paid $2.99, they classified it as misc. netting. Lol I went back today to get abscate’s rear door and finished taking out these rather new looking springs and shocks. Pennies on the dollar.

Looks like someone already took the center console. Nice interior, and nice parts find.

I'm going to set a goal for myself to get to a pick n pull, when I build up more stamina in my legs, and spend the day looking for treasure. I used to go as often as I could when I was younger, and got some great deal on parts I wanted/needed. I miss it. Not only finding stuff I was looking for, but also finding interesting things from cars I've never worked on, or owned, but always liked.

One man's crash is another man's treasure. (abscate is wearing off on me )
