Hello From Ga

Post by DoriDori »

Hi yall,

Been using MVS for years as a guest. Thought it was overdue for an actual username. My wife and I have two Volvos:



1999 V70xc Emerald Metallic Green, 58k miles (yes, that is 58,000 miles), running like new, bone stock, bought it with a salavge title, put new hood/fender/headlight/header panel, and got a rebuilt title.

Welcome to MVS as a real user!

Nice looking cars. On the 850 you might want to look at replacing the coolant cap. The gray cap has a tendency to split so Volvo changed the plastic formulation and the new formulation has a blueish green color. I've had a couple of the original ones break and puked out a bunch of the coolant.
