Sigh, off to the dealer for a new battery. It wouldn't even stay running after jump-starting it off my Mustang.

It's become readily apparent that my 2010 XC70 battery needs to be replaced. It's not clear to me how the existing battery comes out. Not seeing any obvious clamp that needs to be removed. Any...
I've since changed the oil in my 2010 two more times and while it goes faster, it's still pretty difficult. Gloves help. I still can't get the oil filter top out even if I unclip the power steering...
I've changed my own oil in my '10 three times so far and the filter change is always the worst. You won't get the filter canister top out with out removing the power steering reservoir entirely, but...
Underhood pic please if you get a chance.
I use the Thule Ascent 1700 box.
This is the one I have:

I got it from these guys for about the same price. Pre-painted. This was the lowest price I could find.

From the right side of my 2010; self explanatory I hope... 3 torx screws each.

You have to drill 4 holes in the top of the hatch. It's made of plastic or fiberglass, so they're easy to drill. Where you drill is clearly marked on the underside of the hatch. The spoiler has...
I installed them on my 2010 in about 20 minutes. They go on very easily with the existing screws that hold the wheel trim on, but the kits provide replacement screws that look the same size as the...
Today I successfully changed the oil in my 2010 XC70 3.2L - not without some difficulty. Took me about 45 minutes, but I did practice on my lemon 2009 before I gave it back. Procedure with...
Another huge difference - the engine cover is black on the 10 versus grey on the 09.
Nope, same wheel as an 09.
OK, just got the replacement 2010 base XC70 for my 2009 with the random misfire. It was seamless, just dropped off the 2009, switched plates, signed paperwork and drove off. We'll see how this one...
My satisfaction is not so good right now. The first week we had the 09, the "check engine" light went on with less that 100 miles on the vehicle. Misfire in all 6 cylinders. The vehicle has been...
This.
They fit on my 09 with lots of adjusting. I completely concur with the statement that they are a pain in the ass to install.
