Some days when I start it up and give it some gas I hear a squeeling from
the engine. Other days I dont. On the days I do, it goes away after running
for a little bit. Any thoughts?
Also, I just got the exhaust replaced...went from the CAT, with a pipe

I found today that on two wheels same side I have badly damaged threads,
this has been caused by an idiot who did some work taking the wheels off
with an air gun.

Any ideas what is this? Actually, in my manual it stated that it should
not be used. Ok, I took that fuse out of there. Hm... If it works never
touch it! A lot of secondary equipment went off: central lock, radio,
clock, interior lights (although I discovered that the fuse is the ...

Thanks...

I have a chance to get an '89 740 wagon for $300. The engine has been
replaced about 40,000 miles ago, with 40,000 on it (80,000 now)
It is in decent shape. Needs paint (this I can do) and seems to need
springs. Interior is ok, nothing spectacular. The car was not well

Well, Using my Metra harness and bezel kits, I have managed to
partially install my new radio. I discovered after the fact that the
speaker wires on the *power plug* connector are the ones to the front, not
the connector with front and back wires all together.

Who?

I have had the car for 5 years, when I bought it I had the timing belt
changed that was 85000 miles ago.
Should I change it again.

My 940 seems to have a developed a fuel guage indication problem.  It's
stuck on empty (or thereabouts), with the warning LED on regardless of how
much fuel is in the tank.  I suspect the sending unit/float assembly is
responsible for the erroneous indication.  I was able to "free" ...

Can anyone tell me where the service port is on my 89 240?  I've
looked everywhere, and the only ports I can find are both on the
drier, and neither is a fitting that appears of have a Shraeder valve.
I bought a conversion kit from a Volvo source that has the fittings

I have a problem with the above alarm (Volvo factory fitted).  I
accidentally left a cooler plugged into the cigarette lighter all night
and it obviously drained the battery.
I jump started the car and drove for about two hours, and the battery

Does anyone know if electronic climate controll on a V40 only exists of the
frontpanel mounted in the dash.
I other words if i would replace the manual controlpanel by a ECC panel will
that do the trick.

The front main has gone in the beast.   Haemorrhaging badly.....
I have ordered the front main seal, as well as the two other seals and a new
timing belt as I am not sure when it was replaced last.  This doesn't seem
to have the flame trap like my earlier 79 245.  Is there ...

Here is the story
My dad wanted one because we were going to France camping every year and it
was #"the ultimate tow car".  My mother went mad because he didnt wait until
August the 1st for it to be a B reg (as her initial is B)  The registration
