It doesn't come with one. If you use the old one, you may have to fish it out of the oil bucket as it sometimes falls off when the oil drains. Remember to properly torque everything back to...

My XC70 2002 now has an easy driven 96k miles and I have done most maintenance myself with the help of this board and changed the Tranny fluid at an independent shopyears ago.

I received a...

but that is exactly why I do it myself! Learned that from Jiffy lube with loose drain plug!

I originally bought a cheap oil filter wrench, but it eventually lost its effectiveness, so I bought...

How often are you driving around in snow? 10 days in the winter with snow/icy roads? My concern is what about that morning your driving on 23 degree dry roads and you have to rip on the brakes to...

I have been searching for winter tires for my wife's new audi. With the Xc70, I have just stuck with All-seasons. My other car has designated winter tires. I have been looking at Tire rack where...

Just fixed the problem. It turn out to be the Brake Relay switch located in the cargo area! Found a post somewhere, but can't find it now that talked about switching out the relay for the brake...

This is just happened to my 02 xc70. replaced both bulbs, no fix as of yet! ugh. Now to try the relays.

Looks very involved! I believe the price is quite high as well! Thanks for that PDF.

besides its versatility, how is installation/price?? Thanks Damon.

Did you install the Curt hitch yourself? Was it easy if you did? Did you have to remove the exhaust?(I saw that for one hitch system).

How visible is it from bumper level??

Thanks for...

Hey,

I have done a search for trailer hitches, but wanted to see what they look like installed. Anyone have pics of the US Volvo hitch/Draw Tite/Uhaul???

TIA

I think you have confused the issue. A C30 should be getting much better gas mileage. A c30 a prestige auto?!?!?! Come on, who are you kidding!!! Let's be straight forward, Volvo is really not a...

Just a little update FWIW!?!! I needed a commuter car for my wife. I really liked the looks of the C30, but didn't even bother going to the dealership to see it in person or test drive it. ...

Too bad you didn't catch this post before you signed up for the 08, not tooting my own xc70 '02 horn here, but some of us were expressing this concern back in November. It is sad to say our...

I am not surprised by the MPG comment. As I touted months ago, what is Volvo thinking?!?!?!

Not a bad review from fifth gear. Probably more fun to watch him slippin' and a slidin', oops snow bank!!!

His latest drumming of Volvo can be found in Automobile's April issue. He has also been testing the C30 which he seemed to like on a whole till it dropped below 20mpg average!

He doesn't care...

+1 How about a diesel?!?!?! I want MPG, less power! [mad2]

I must agree too. I saw one driving the other day and followed it for a while. I certainly didn't like the view from the rear.

I would say cheer up with the XC60 coming, but from the recent...

next monday march 3rd. the test takes place near the artic circle.
the only way to do it! you european delivery people should take notes!

look for youtube clips next week or finalgear.com

Anyone get that error message on your dash? my xc70 02 flashed that today. The roads were really bad here today and the DSTC was going off constantly. And it needed to be. At one point I think...

I went with the sylvania silver stars, i liked them but one just burnt out! 13 months! not as good as the oem bulb that gave me 4 years!!!!!!

With the big snows I get here, I often have to shut down the DSTC during slow driving in deep stuff, otherwise she just shuts down! XC70 '02 Anyone else deal with this as well? Not sure if this is...

For members, there looks to be a deal for the next month for European/Domestic offer.

I have no affiliation what so ever, just wanted to pass along the deal info.[thumbup]
