One more question: since I'm not seeing...

Hi,
The AWD on my car has never really worked properly, and now it doesn't work at all. When I bought the car the shop told me the angle gear needed to be resealed so I got that done, and it hasn't...

I called the dealer yesterday, they told me all recalls have been done on the car

I have the exact same problem with my 03' but haven't gotten around to fixing it.

Does anyone know if not repairing it could cause further damage? Could I just unplug the DEM module and let it...

Can you link me the silicon part and how difficult is it to replace? Or can I just leave it for now?

Here's a picture of what it currently looks like:

Hi,
recently while doing an oil change I noticed that the air intake pipe is leaking a bit of oil where it goes into the engine form the intercooler. I've read that a bit of oil is normal since the...

Thanks for all the replies, you guys are awesome!

I didn't get the pump current and pressure since I don't have VIDA, my mechanic simply gave me a printout. Sometimes when the AWD kicks I hear a...

Also, I have never serviced this unit, I didn't even know you could service it. Also can you buy these parts online?

is it something you can fix yourself or do you need VIDA or special tools?

Hi, for a while now I have noticed that it can sometimes take a long time before the awd kicks in when my front tires are slipping. In addition, sometimes the awd won't engaged at all or will only do...

Hi, does anyone know what the differences between the airbag service light and the airbag service urgent message? I get the message (I think the dims going bad) but not the light

Hi so I just wanted to follow up on this thread, I took the seat belt in to another mechanic shop and he got the used part working. It seems what was wrong with both parts was that the spool did not...

Hi, does anyone know what happens (can it cause damage) if you leave the car battery unplugged for a couple of days? Will I have to take it in to the dealer to get everything reprogrammed after I...

Does the battery need to be disconnected when unplugging the dim? When unplugged mine I left the battery plugged in but that caused the heating system to turn on as soon as i locked the car

Well i got a used seat belt in the mail today and it has the exact same problem (only retracting, not unwinding). Could there be something wrong with the b-piller? could the car computer be messing...

Hi, the most recent item on my never ending repair project with this car (2003 XC70) is that the passenger seat belt recently stopped extending, it will only retract. I have already tried unbolting...

Hi everyone! I can't tell anymore if i'm a car hypochondriac or if everything just breaks in this car. Anyway I have recently had it happen that occasionally when I accelerate and the car shifts...

I decided to go with the STR's cause most people seem to be happy with them and so far I agree, although to be honest the previous tires were some cheepo Delta tires so of course the STR's are an...

thx for all the advice! I decided to do the water pump with the belts since I plan on owning this car for a long time and will therefore probably have to deal with it sooner or later anyways

Hi there! I am looking for new tires for my xc70. I already have decent winter tires (x-ice1) and now I need something for the summer. I know there already are a lot of threads on this, but most are...
