[QUOTE=XCovlov70;198998]Like Champ234 our 2010 D5 SE XC70 has just gone over the 100,000 Miles (160,000K) and is running as well if not better than when we got it new, as the engine has loosened up...

Forever Black worked well on my 01 (blue cladding that became gray streaked). FB turned the cladding an even black and lasted until I sold the car. It took way less than 1 bottle.

I had to do it to my '01. Frustrating job.

Pep Boys or any auto parts store should have replacement connectors but they are a PIA to install because of tight spaces in the headlight. Getting a...

Are those removal instructions available anywhere? How hard was the removal/replacement of the fascia and the rear sensors?

The hitch for my 2001 took me 20 minutes to install. The dealer said 4...

Ask your dealer. The brochure should list what combinations are permitted.

I custom ordered my car (not ODP) specing a charcoal interior when everything available locally had a light interior. I...

1. BLIS: I get a lot of false positives when the roads are wet (often here). Also I have had a few instances of the BLIS blinking an error code supposedly because the camera is obscured. The error...

Maybe it is a Europe v. US model difference.

I tried it but the windows did not close. I looked in the manual and the car menus but did not see a choice to close windows with the PCC.

Drive -no ; Entry/exit - maybe. We know someone with an 06 (wife's car) where the husband is in a wheelchair from a motorcycle accident. He needs the handle for entry/exit - The car has a hand...

The one on the P2 was better - easier to get/put away the glasses.

The handle is more recessed in the headliner on the current model so I find it somewhat harder to access.

It also bothers me...

Is it different than the procedure for P2s? (in the Resources section)

If you actually want to use your rails, Forever Black seems to do a nice job. I had some leftover from fixing the bumpers so I recently used it to spruce up the rails. They look a lot better.

My dealer left me a message today that the new car will be here at the end of the week. I guess that means the freighter did not sink. ;) (That actually happened a few years ago)


I wasn't...

I used a heat gun (ON LOW AND WITH EXTREME CARE) to remove factory stripes from a truck. A hair dryer will also work. Dental floss works well for the raised style plastic medallions. Don't get the...

Thanks. I will look at it when the car comes.

H1 55W unless they changed it.

There is a list in your owner's manual if you have one.

They don't offer the D5 in this large market :mad:

Rumor has it (according to a Volvo sales manager) that they will bring the D5 in a couple of years.

I will believe it when I see it

Does the trim around the fog lights come off? That is one part of the new styling I do not care for. I would like to paint or powder coat it if it is removable.

I feel the same way about the...

TheDarKnightt beats me! I only have 217K miles on my 2001. Original tranny but lots of suspension and other repairs.

Oh, and like gibbons, I had to put those plastic covers over my lugbolts...

Are these helpful? Adjusting mine helped wind noise some.

I had a seatbelt replaced under warranty well after the main warranties expired. Like kamiar and jda2000 said, get it checked at the dealer first.

Whenever I take mine in for service they change the switch to "O" and the lights behave like that, as Art said.

Missed this. I haven't checked this forum in a while.
That is it exactly, except it DEFINITELY said "RS". Thanks, JRL.

It isn't a medallion anymore :(. I only got a square sticker for 100K - still haven't seen the one for 200K yet.

1. The car spent most of its life in dry Colorado.

2. I washed it, including the undercarriage frequently in the winter because CO uses mag. chloride on the roads.

3. I think it might need the...

215K mi, still have the original exhaust
