The S70 never gets old and Silver & White were the two best colors. I think out of the 4 different models we've owned the S70 had the best driving ergonomics overall.

These storage tubs with the lid on can be stacked if contents are not too heavy. I try to keep things off the floor, but I fail everyday. If I use boxes or tubs, I try to label the contents on the outside or a paper inside. However, one opening to add or remove without updating the label and I have failed again. I know how to use a warehouse system (I worked at plants with great warehouse systems), but I do not have the discipline to do it.

Thanks! Between these two videos I'm hoping I can accomplish replacing both springs. They do make it look easy.

So far after 2 rainstorms I have not had a single roof leak. I think adjusting my sunroof has fixed my problem.

Isn't that a great feeling? Water leaks are the WORST. I need to drop the headliner and reattach the sunroof drains on my Mountaineer to stop water from getting in there. Not looking forward to it.

: 2004 Volvo XC90 transmission drain bolt (before)

Finally got around to performing an ATF drain and fill on the ’04 XC90 with 85,000 miles. We’ve had it a little over a year, which shows how behind schedule I am.

I found what seemed like a fair bit of sludge on the drain bolt before cleaning it off.

Not too bad, Bruno. It’s normal for clutch material to slough off.

Yup, looks like normal debris to me. Actually pretty good!

Very true... that's how most cars down here look underneath at least!
