I have the opportunity to purchase an 86 Volvo DL 240 from a friend.  I was
very impressed with the performance of the car considering its age.  One
major issue is keeping me from purchasing this car.  When I turn on the
ac/heater, nothing happens.  What could be the causes and of ...

i recently orderd a new tensioner for the atlernator on my 440
went my Volvo dealers, to order new parts, as they are not stocked for my
car, i had to order them for next dat delivery.
When the parts came, i was short of two washers, which had to be reordered.

I saw a "new" V70R the other day at the local Volvo dealer, msrp at US
$37,900+ change. As I was reading the window sticker for options. it was
obviously loaded, I saw the horse power rating for the vehicle and as I
recall it was 300HP.

I have two 940 turbos, one is 91 940se and  92 940 turbo.  How is the check
engine light turned off??
Thanks
Bill

My DL 1990 240 speed meter works fine but the odometer quit working.  Is the
a fix for this like replacing a resistor or something?  The car is just
under 200K and I'm trying to keep the mileage showing.           Thanks

I'm sure this topic has been covered here before, but can anyone tell me how
to disable the daytime running lights on a 2004 XC70, US version?
Thank you,

I think I might just pony up the $34k for one of these 300hp puppies. If
anyone knows any grievous caveats, do tell now. I'd be under warranty for a
good stretch but nevertheless don't wish to frequent the dealer. If I
understand, they have the venerable 5 cylinder cranking out ...

My A/C compressor is making a horrible noise.  I want to keep driving
the car but don't care about A/C.  Is there a way to get the power
steering pump to run directly from the main pulley ?  I have seen
discussions on the topic here, but no details from anyone who has

Help!  One day my wife's '98 S70's A/C was fine, the next day, blowing hot
air.  Climate Control fuse is OK.  I jumpered the A/C relay, and the
compressor clutch engages, and the compressor runs.  With engine running and
AC on, did not get 12V at the AC relay terminals.

Did they have the same engine? Should a damper pulley (harmonic balancer,
crankshaft pulley, whatever you want to call it) for an 87 model work as
well on the 89 model?

I bought a conversion kit for my 82 244 sedan, but I can't find the service
port(s) to convert the R-12 to R-134a. Also, does anyone know where I can
find a limited slip rear end for a 240, 242, 244, 245 volvo?

i am looking at getting a volvo 480 but the ignition system has failed!!
i have got a volvo 440 with the same size engine i was wondering if anybody
knew if the ignition systems are the same and if the good one would replace
the faulty one in the 480 thanks for your help

Does anyone have any info regarding the technical spec of the audio
equipment installed as factory standard in a 1997 S70?
I'm looking for - sizes of speakers, ratings (power, impedance and supply),
etc., etc. with a view to doing a complete re-install.

My 1998 S70 keyless remote (part 9166200) has a cracked case.  The remote
works fine, but I am afraid that moisture or dirt could more easily damage
the delicate electronics.  The local Volvo dealership can sell me a new
remote ($112, if I recall correctly), but tells me that no ...
