Help, Advice and DIY Tutorials on Volvo's P80 platform cars -- Volvo's 1990s "bread and butter" cars -- powered by the ubiquitous and durable Volvo inline 5-cylinder engine.
Cases are different, can't recall by how much, but the quantity and position of some of the heating system servo motors are different as are the internal flaps.

I don't mind being wrong, but I think the section of the housing where the evaporator can be opened without removing the whole heating system with long Torx screw drivers or attachments.

That would be nice...mostly because i don't know where to find o rings for heater core.

Misha does your 850 wagon have ECC heater controls or MCC?
Strangely, when I look up Volvo parts lists they do not show an 'O' ring for the end of the pipe to the heater core for ECC systems. Volvo sells an 'O' ring kit but it is not clear if that is just for the bulkhead or if it includes 2 rings for the heater core. I do recommend if you can get OE rings as I have had issues with aftermarket ones leaking. They always seem to be thinner than the OE ones.

I have ECC...but heater cores should be the same for both.
I allready surfed through FCP site in search for those o rings.

So the ones I linked are not correct?
Neil.
I didn't said that,Neil.
I just said that i allready surfed across FCP for those o rings and wrote down part #.
It says that o rings are for heater core/hose.
So...i don't quite understand are they for both aplications...for quick connect hose from firewall side or just for heater core connection from inside the cabin.
