would be good to know though

But it is a fix that can do in an afternoon. I used a hacksaw blade to cut mine open. Bro-in-law soldered the pins, Stuck together with that sticky rtv? stuff. Works well.

Sounds like my vehicle, I've got a camshaft position sensor coming, yet I still have the pin of coolant reservoir hose at the radiator snapped off, as well the same clunk as your one. It is a wonder...

It's worth it to do the bevel gear and diff oil. It adds much more torque.
Get the right oil, not just any axle oil. Suck out old. Squeeze in new until it starts to trickle/stream out. Block with...

Hope it went well ...

I wouldn't go the route into transmission suggested by the author, use the dipstick tube which is also the fill using a funnel.
There have been noted problems removing the wrong bolt from the top...

To tighten e brake at the shoes turn the cog (shown in photos) towards the front of vehicle, to loosen brake shoes turn the cog back. You will hear the spring as it sits on the cog as every time the...

I read when getting the inlet manifiold off a 99 XC you take the three torx bolts and remove the runner and that undoes the plug so don't have to disconnect the fuel line to remove IM. So, don't need...

Thanks

Great write up and pictures.

That's interesting about tread tolerances. I had two new tyres put on and a few days later had a noticeable driveshaft vibration. Actually there was a nasty shudder as well. But, it went away. The...

That's right. "Brake failure, stop!" and "Oh no, dust in your etm!" and "Wheel sensor on left needs checking," and "Motronic connection to the Engine management system has failed," to "Yes, we...

Awesome write up and photo instructions, and includes the turbo, too!
Just a few changes. I took out the dipstick, much more room for a TB screw and removing...

Is it strickly necessary to replace gasket? Can I make one with instant stuff or gasket card?

I know it sits inside of the pressure bowl thing. From memory when I sat it in the threaded part, I hoped it wouldn't get pushed into the big bowl thing. But when I pressed in the position sensor I...

Yaay. I could not see with my eyesight and viewing angle there was a W letter at the beginning of all that.
A little advice sure can pay off.
I can see from looking at the chart the correct...

Using Swedishautoparts there seem to be four types of springs each coloured differently and codes that go with each spring. The first two digits of the...

I towed a heavy trailer. Soon after the shudder and codes that were felt rhoughout the car, and the codes making the transmission light flash, stopped. For one full day stretching to three now with...

Thanks for the reply and the link: https://www.midwest-abs.com/Troubleshooting.php to the Midwest ABS module site.

I had resoldered a pair of two large pins, one of which had cracked, in the...

What happened? My car has same codes.

I wonder how these two are linked - the fuel door catch stopped so pried open and held with magnets now, and stopped with no warning and doesn't go click, at the very same time the rear door unlocker...

Thanks. I went to partsforvolvo.com and that was great.

Haha That is soo good though now because it was an easy fix.

Without ice around what is the easiest way to test if it is AWD or not? I try spinning it up on gravel but except for a little spin on maybe one tire the tires just connect to the ground.

Awesome video. Many thanks.

Isn't it a bit odd that the air to the throttle doesn't seem to come from after the air filter?
