    Thanks Brett, here's the reason I hadn't done that, but your response makes me re-evaluate. The fan plug has three wires coming from it, +/- 12 volts @ 30 amps and a signal wire. I my old VW days,...

    Transmission 2002 -> 2008 XC?

    Hello all,

    I know this is a long shot, but I didn't see the harm in asking. I have a 2002 XC 70 with some issues (ABS, SRS) but a good engine and trans. I have a friend with a 2008 XC 70 with a...

  7. where the heck is the other end of the rear ABS sensor?

    I have a 2002 XC 70 AWD, the rear bearings needed replacement so I figured while I was in there I'd replace the wheel speed sensors as I have already done in front to see if that makes that damn...

    well I know it's been a long long time, but this has finally been resolved and it wasn't the transmission after all. After many mechanics, and experts on this site told me it needed a new trans I...

    I'll check that, but there are other symptoms. It's throwing all sorts of tranny codes, it takes 2-3 seconds to thunk into reverse and it never gets into 5th. To refill fluid I used the yellow...

    continued 2008 xc 70 blues

    the '08 saga continues. I got the ECU back from XModex and she fired right up, I was delighted. Now she has 2 (although I'm sure they are the same root cause) trans issues.

    a) she will go into...

    are the reluctor rings the gear looking like rings that the wheel speed sensors are pointed at? I assume I can get at them just by pulling the wheels off. I will do that and look for cracks and let...
  19. ABS light is on, code is ABS circuit A, replaced pedal position sensor, still on

    The title sorta sums this one up. I have the 'pull over safely urgent' issue message, ABS lights on. Code is 'brake circuit A' and sometimes 'brake circuit A and B'. Googling suggested the brake...

  25. Can I use VIDA to swap out my ECU for a new (used) one?

    My '07 V70 XC has been the subject of a few posts here but I wanted to zero in on one question I have.
