05 XC70, 145,000 miles
Symptoms: Engine cuts out intermittently for a second or two while maintaining speed. It has never occurred while idling or accelerating. It's almost the same as if the...
My bet would be alignment. Make sure all your front end components are in good shape before you have it aligned or it will be ineffective.
Did some further inspection the other day and there is a quick release 90° elbow in the washer hose that broke as well. It's located about a foot from the washer tank. Dealer only has it available as...
I'm interested in seeing how this turns out. I'm curious how he will duplicated the textured finish without it standing out.
It looks like I'm going to have to get my cover at the dealer. List is...
Believe it or not, I don't travel to work in reverse LOL!! Yes, it's a front cover I'm looking for.
While proximity may play a factor in the cost of a used cover, I've had larger items shipped to...
Not even a bite so far. I've done several parts searches with salvage yards and have feelers out with every Volvo nut I know. It's looking like the dealer will be my only source, I hope I can...
Hit a deer going to work this morning, tore up the bumper cover pretty bad. Looking for a replacement cover in black. I tried Erie Volvo with no luck. PM me with info. Thanks!
The ones on my '01 were shot, one cracked the other sandblasted from highway miles. I found replacements on eBay for under $100, did the job in an afternoon. There's a how to here on the Board...
Same here, sent an email a couple months ago, no response
Good deal!
Thanks for the help offered along the way, the links and pics helped get me through this.
It's fixed!! The Super Glue didn't work like I had hoped so I went a different route. You can see the crack highlighted in orange, it hadn't broken off but wasn't far from it. I cleaned up the Super...
Funny this thread comes up, I happened upon this V70 in a parking lot today. Looks like a Borla exhaust, I'm not certain and I'm sorry I didn't get to hear it. The car was covered with IPD stickers,...
Well I got it apart and found the upper hole that the latch handle pivots on cracked which released the tension on the hinge pin, it traveled up and out of the bottom hinge. I got the assembly...
Got it, thanks!
It appears the lower pin that the release handle pivots on is gone. I'm working on taking that assembly apart, don't know if I'll be successful. Has anyone come up with a way to...
Thanks, I'll look for the videos
No snow and temps above 20°, I made another attempt today. I inserted a pry bar into the slot located at the bottom inside the orange circle and pried as hard as I dared, there was literally no...
I don't know electronics that well. I sent it out to another member here to be repaired and he found it to be beyond repair, didn't state the particular problem. He said he has a very high success...
Thanks guys. Your comments are conflicting though, the plan would be to purchase a new old style fob and have the dealer program it if that will work. I'm assuming in this plan that that style remote...
Pretty much what the title asks. Can an earlier style remote be programmed to open an '05 XC70? The big ass folding key remote to my '05 is bad and will have to be replaced. I find the little...
It's snowed here nearly every other day since my last post, I finally had a chance to take a stab at it today. I'm a little unclear on which portion of the large handle you pull the door shut with...
Well..... most everyone.... ;-)
Congrats on the car. I also have an '01 with similar mileage and wouldn't hesitate to take it on a long trip. Good luck with it!
I ordered the mats and installed them this past weekend. They're just what I needed for this snowy winter we're having. Thanks for the tip!
I got it too
Thanks again for the input. I do snow removal and we're due for a significant storm tonight so I won't be able to tackle this until later in the week. I suspect something has broken the way it...
