Hello,

I'm currently shopping for the following parts for my 2008 Volvo XC90, 3.2 AWD. I noticed that "Genuine Volvo Parts" are so much more expensive than other brands. As I look at my rear Nivomat...
Hello,
Is there anyone out there who had changed tie rods? Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.
The instruction calls for a counterhold to remove the inner tie rod and I cant even find a place to buy the tool (999 7083). And there is also a limiter?
Can I just use the tie rod tool from...

Sorry, I cant upload the PDF file (exceeded the allowable file size). I converted into jpeg file, just zoom in. Btw, this is for 2008 Volvo XC90, AWD. Not sure if its the same with 2004 XC90. ...
$485 is not bad. The Volvo Dealership wanted $685 from me. The part alone costs me $249 at volvopartswarehouse. With the help of my Vida/Dice, I was able to disarm the airbag system, walked me thru...
Update your Adobe PDF Reader to Adobe XI. If that doesn't work pls let me know. If you know for sure that the internal fault is the clockspring, you must have Vida/Dice to calibrate the new one...

This is the gasket
I was curious if someone has ever cleaned this unit and reinstalled with a new gasket. The gasket only cost $22 as opposed to buying the whole thing
This black cover on my engine is leaking oil. Im not sure if the gasket is bad. Shopping around, I found huge difference on pricing.
Volvo Dealerships = $220 + tax

You meant the tensioner pulley? The idler pulley is closer to the pump. Im also considering on changing all the auxillary belt, tensioner, idler and water pump as well as the thermostat...
The whinning sound is very prominent during the first 5 mins of idling. It mellows down a bit thereafter.
I already bought the bearings for the alternator. How is the pulley removed and where...

The left picture is the transmission drain plug. You need a Torx 40 and 17 mm Hex. It is also suggested that you replace the washer of the drain plug and the rubber washer of the Integrated Level...
Fluid Counter reset successfuly performed!!!! Ignition has to be off, key must be in Pos II.
Note: Vida suggest for the Ignition to be "ON". This did not work. You have to turn the ignition...
Its strange how the box is labeled; "Made in Japan" but theres a Sweden marking on it. Of course I could not have done the job without my China made Vida/Dice. Otherwise, the process is just a swap...
I added 1.5 liter and let it idle until oil temp reaches 50 degrees. Opened the Integrated level plug. It drained .5 liter. At least I now know the fluid level is correct.
I tried to reset the...

I followed the Vida instruction how to flush the transmission. Drained the pan, add 4 liters, pumped through the upper rad connector, add 2 liters. I did this until I pumped a total of 16 Liters. ...
I'm about to completely flush my transmission fluid. After checking the fluid level, what reset should be performed?
