We'll do it the right way!
Hello all,
Just got a quote at the local Monro Auto shop for replacement of all 4 shocks/struts
What have others paid for this job?
Thanks,
it was fun to watch the Allroad kick the XC70's behind.
I'm actually surprised the Volvo made it up the hill as far as it did as I consider my 2002 V70XC to be more of a front wheel drive car...
75K miles on our 2002 XC tranny and it continues to run fine.
I've had the fluid changed 3 times, and the ECU reflashed each time updated software has come out.
The valve body was replaced...
BTW, my stealership reset the SRS light I set off installing the USA-Spec connector as a part of my $1,500 60K service.
We had a S60 AWD with 17" wheels at our VT house that was absolutely fantastic in the snow - with a 16" set of wheels and narrow diameter snow tires.
The 17 or 18" wheels quickly get packed with...
Available on fleabay all day long for $50.

Seriously though, these don't look terrible, but its dual, so its cool

Since we've just used up our second set of STRs at 75K, I'm in the market for tires.
Interestingly, selecting 225-60-16 on tirerack.com results in 111 tires. Selecting 215-65-16 (the stock size)...
I learned this the hard way. When I removed the stereo to install my USA Spec Aux-In / Ipod adapter I disconnected the Climate Control Module. If you disconnect the Climate Control Module, the...
Pretty expensive for a 60K service (at 74k miles) if you ask me!
Sounds like the dealer goes over the car with a fine tooth comb and they found several things.
Tie Rod end replacement (which...
I've got the USA Spec adapter. It's my interface for both iPod and Sirius satellite radio. It works as advertised.
make sure your disconnect your battery prior to installing - when I...
Interesting that when my tranny was acting up at about 45K miles, the tranny flush under warranty and a ECU reflash made a world of difference.
Given how finnicky the tranny seems to be, I've got...
Taking our 2002 V70XC in for service next week.
It's time for the relatively major 60K service. This hurts!
Tire rotation and Balance
Oil Change
Brake Adjust
Brake fluid flush

I think part of the problem here is Volvo USA's pricing. $299 / month for a 2007 XC70 is a pretty darn good deal. Don't forget you are competing with the manufacturer to sell your used rig. That...
I've got the USA Spec adapter in my 2002 V70XC with Hu 850. It works flawlessly. Sirius is the bomb, and it sounds fantastic. I just used the suction cup mount, put the Sportster in the far left...
I used some Velcro, and now my Ipod mini is nice and secure on the cupholder next to climate control. works like a charm.
don't waste your money. all everyone is saying here is how bad they are, worse than stock halogen....

Just the HU-613
I was offroading on a mild slope, and the opposite corners were not getting much traction. So little traction in fact, that I got stuck. I guess with no active or semi-active differential lock,...
I treat our 2002 V70XC as if it were a front wheel drive car, as I've been let down by the AWD function when offroading before.
Good luck!
Wahoo!
Just finished connecting the USA-Spec Aux-in adapter on my 2002 Volvo XC 70 with HU-613. It now plays Sirius and iPod feeds flawlessly. Even charges the ipod, which turns itself off when...
I planned on hooking both up and was wondering how it would work out. You've answered my question. The parts came from Crutchfield on Friday, can't wait to get home from skiing so I can install!!

I've been thinking of buying the USA-Spec iPod adapter for my 2002 V70XC to provide a line-in for my Sirius satellite radio.
I've got the Sportster and it has a mini-jack line-out on the back. ...
