Well, it's been almost 2 years since I started this project. I found a virtually unlimited supply of those proprietary Volvo 8 Pin MINI DIN connectors! If anyone wants some, let me know and I can...

Greetings!
I decided to build my SC-816 CD Changer and iPod switching device. It has been installed in one of my 2000 V70XC's. It works very well. Sounds no different than it did when I had the CD...
My 2000's have two sensors. The second one is in the front on the passenger side.

I agree with JRL. They (whoever fixes the ABS modules) beefs up the solder joints - specifically where the connectors are. Perhaps earlier ABS modules needed more modifications/upgrades (like high...
I can help with the phone part of your post. [happy]

Yes, I had the same problem. Whats wrong is that one of the "leafs" in the cartridge is extended into the changer - instead of being in the cartridge.
1. Remove the four screws (two on each side)...
Yes, I've had the same problem. Read this:

Option 1: Buy a cheap, used remote(s), and swap the electronics from your working remote to the used remote.
Option 2: Beg, borrow, steal, (or buy) the scan tool, get the 4 digit pin for your '98,...
The chart appears to be incorrect.
The 1998-2000 XC models do not require any code numbers. There are no code numbers with the remotes.
The 1998 models are programmed with a handheld scantool...

Good catch! At least the title was right... Thx! [happy]
With help from a friend on V70R.com, I got a new toy - the RC-825 remote.

I am very pleased with this remote! All the...
I'm interested. Send me some pictures.
Cheers! Rabbit
What you have on your car - 3 Pirellis and a Guardsman makes me nervous....
I would say (my opinion only - others here disagree with me) you should buy at least two new tires - Pirelli's - same...
Thanks for the heads up, JRL. My wifes XC is coming up on the 100K mark. I'll be replacing both engine mounts because of your experience. I've already done the top stabilizer (IPD) on both XC's.

Whatever, JRL.....
I'll fix my own ABS module when it breaks instead of paying someone else to do it.
Just because others have failed at repairing ETMs, that doesn't mean that it's impossible!...
Here you are.

Notice the drilling guides that come with a new cover. Look at frame #6 in the book. It's very difficult to...
What do you care how I spend my time?
As far as someone rebuilding them goes, I really don't know if anyone has tried to replace the potentiometer films! Do you know if anyone has even tried to...
What year Volvo are you refering to?
Thank you for the explaination! :) [thumbup]
The console is marked (from top to bottom) P,R,N,D,1,2,3
Funny, my Automatic 2000 V70XC SE (end of production run) only has 4 gears on the console. D,1,2,3.
Four speed as far as I can tell - unless the (W)inter mode is considered the 5th gear.
I'm...
Same material as the OEM single exhaust system.
Yes, they do. There are several threads here relating to the AWD system for the early V70 XC's.
It does. I have it installed on my 2000 XC SE. Very nice system and much easier to install than the IPD system. Personally, I wouldn't want any other system on my XC. Factory OEM all the way.

You going around and telling everyone they have to replace all 4 tires is absurd!!!! :p
