Same sheet metal - You're good.
Panel rivets are generally available
from anyone that sells Volvo parts.
IIRC there are two styles for the front.
Start with any place that sells

You're probably reading about newer Volvos.
As stated previously, the AWD system in a P80
AWD is ENTIRELY mechanical. No electrics at all.
The VC is what engages the rear diff with stacked...
Pull the drive shaft. Nothing will flop around.
A large percentage of P80 AWD owners have
done this, usually due to mismatched tires.
If the noise goes away, get on with your life.
If not, the...
Appropriate Response - Good Question, Jim! [thumbup]
Pretty short tempered and uncool response... You can do better. [nonono]
What Jim means is that there are different reset procedures...
The OP does indeed have 2000 - It's Geoff69a1 from post 5 that has the 2001 P2.
I would agree that comparing a 2000 to a 2001 is a whole different kettle of fish.
The 2001 goes from basic module...
Based on your reference to an immobilizer message popping up,
I suspect that you have an XC that is newer than Model Year 2000.
The cars in this sections MY range haven't got text based displays....
IIRC, the speedo only reads from the FL tone ring sensor,
but there are plenty of other failure points that can disable
ABS/TRACS resulting in those two lights.
You may have a bad sensor at...
You DO have TRACS, and it's an ABS system based feature - ABS goes out, TRACS follows...
What you don't have on a '98 is STC - Stability Traction Control. That came later. ;)
Sounds like an ABS issue, alright.
This is a great resource for the Volvo community:

Like the door latches, it's all an integrated unit.
The major difference in the tailgate are all of the
linkages. Be sure to take a lot of pictures and get
a good handle on which linkages go where...
The switch is built into the tailgate latch.
It's not unusual for the switch to fail after
a decade or so. You may also have some
damaged wiring in the harness that runs
through the left hinge....
No, that method will make no difference at all.
You'll kill the AWD if it's not already trashed.
All the important stuff is between the tranny
and the tires. Find a way to get a flatbed.

Maybe not the wrong forum section on this site,

I would argue that "value" is a relative term...
This whole story sounds pretty unusual.
First off, these diffs RARELY fail. I mean never.
Unless you were running it without any lube,
it's highly unusual for these rear diffs to lunch it.

IPD has several items for the shifters in these cars.
Have a look at the Shifter Knob Button Repair Kit.
This should solve your sticky shifter button problem.

The ignition lock is connected by a small cable to the shifter.
It's there to be sure that you have the car in park when
the key is removed.
Check for a sticky shifter button or a shift lock...

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the cost and quality.

That's all sounds like pretty incidental stuff.
The fuel sensor is probably the biggest hassle.
What's the mileage? How are the body and interior holding up?
You're sniffin' up the wrong tree...
The 2005 is a totally different car than
