The filter is internal and requires the transmission to be removed and partially dismantled to gain access to it.
Yes oil cooler, takes O-rings.
Ah, a little Voltaire to make a point.[thumbup]
A cheap $99 HF fluxcore wire feed will do the job for less than paying a shop and now you have a weld machine and a repaired tailpipe for less than the price of a new rear silencer, or you have a...
My 02 had the tailpipe rust off, the muffler was perfect with no rust, just rusted at the weld that the tailpipe joined the muffler, I went to AutoZone and picked up a exhaust section that closely...
The rubber oil pan o-ring seals can and do fail, under pressure will produce a larger leak than the not under pressure crank seal could.
Interesting that you found that GL-5 is an equivalent substitute fluid for the Haldex AOC (Active On-Demand Coupling) Gear Oil for AWD automatic clutch system, knew that the separate rear...
I don't think GL-5 is correct fill for the haldex, i used volvo haldex fluid, but let us know how it holds up,
Refreshing to see someone who actually thought about it and decided on a method to solve this rather common problem rather than brute force and destructive remedies.[thumbup]
Why not just sell it like it is with the problems, a buyer with a VIDA/DICE set could buy it at a reduced price, you will be relieved of the headache, and it will be over for your friend.
Replacing the TB by itself is pretty simple job, adding camshaft seals complicates it quite a bit and the Volvo type cam locking tool is required to be fit from the opposite end of the head, skip the...
I know where the sensor is bolted in the trans, but never saw any thermostat inside the AW's i have dug around inside of.
I installed large ATF coolers on both my XC's though i never checked the temps through VIDA, i just used a infrared temp gun on the cooling lines themselves, Didn't care too much about over cooling...
CFE PLUS? anyone fitted this device?, seems interesting, the readout of the transmission temperature and vehicle, plus
drivetrain information in the dash window might be handy, Thanks. ...

On my 04 i just removed the charge tube and fan housing giving me plenty of room to get at the compressor, measured the disengaged gap, then removed enough shims to give me the correct clearance,...
Interior motion sensor?, both my XC's do not have that option as i can set the alarm while inside and nothing happens if i move around, only if i open a door it triggers.
When i removed my alarm module to replace the internal battery the horn did not take over the function of the alarm, maybe my car is faulty?.
The rear cargo area accessory outlet is not switched, it is continuous so the battery can be charged without even lifting the cargo floor cover, or even a solar trickle charger can be used in case of...
The front bumper in American "English" is still the bumper not fender, which in UK English is the front wing.[thumbup]
A simple timing belt and H2O pump replacement does not need the cam lock tool, if you need to change the cam seals then cam gears need to be removed and cams locked from the opposite end, if they are...
Just let it go!, you will find a lot more puzzling things engineered into these bricks, many WTF? things to discover.:confused:
The flaps keep the floor
from inadvertently closing when loading slippery fish into the net. Swedish ingenuity, [thumbup]
Volvo's can and do go the same way, the teeth shear off, and it seems to happen on a cold start up. looking at the backside of the belt will give no indication of this type of impending failure.
