94 850 Turbo-Heater Core and coolant hoses

[csss98]

Hi, Do you have "how to" photo instructions for replacing the heater core? Also, If I wanted to replace all the coolant hoses at the same time, which I believe was recommended by your website on someone else's post, which hoses are they exactly and how many are there? Do you have photo or any instructions for that as well? My car has 79,200 original owner miles. Thank you.

This is for the heater core.

There are...well, I'd think 4 main hoses. 2 radiator, 2 heater core, and then 2 turbo cooling hoses. The expansion tank hose as well, but that one's probably alright.

No tutorial really for that; just drain the radiator, pull one off, and replace it exactly where it was and tighten it down nice & good. You'll probably want to buy all of the clamps and o-rings associated with each hose.

These are for an S70 (sorry, I always forget I'm not looking for parts for mine), but you can easily go to that site and order the ones for your car based on the categories there

While you've got all the antifreeze out of there, you might want to replace your thermostat & coolant sensor as well if they haven't been replaced in the last couple years. Everyone's seem to be going out on them as winter is coming around this year.

Here are the links for your car.

Heater Hoses

Cooling System Hoses

Turbo Hoses

The parts are basically the same, but at least the part numbers will match up now.
