| 760 Stereo question (I really did try to solve it myself!) | 18 Dec 2004 00:37 GMT | 12 |
Hi all, back again with another question regarding my 1988 760GLE. I want to move the Eclipse CD/Receiver from my 240 into the 760. The amateur installers (at Kromer radio for those of you in Toronto) had spliced the wires from the Eclipse harness right into the 240 wiring

| 88 240, no overdrive, not solenoid | 17 Dec 2004 19:05 GMT | 8 |
A couple of weeks ago I posted a question about my 88 240 wagon (AW transmission) and its gradual loss of overdrive over about a 10 day period. I removed the solenoid and resoldered the wire which clearly was broken but I could not be certain whether my removal and inspection broke ...

| Timing belt replacement | 17 Dec 2004 00:58 GMT | 3 |
Time to change the belt! I do a lot of the repairs myself, but where it concerns life or death of the engine, I choose the pro's. I first called the Volvo dealership (to get a price to go after), and they were very friendly and informed me of the last time the vehicle was in for ...

| Replacing dash bulbs in 1994 850 | 16 Dec 2004 21:52 GMT | 2 |
The bulbs behind the LED display went last night, or rather, the second one did. How do you replace these or is this a case of removing the dashboard?

When I start it up in morning..drives great...no problems when driving...as the day goes on, with car sitting here and there, it starts to hesitate...by the end of the day when giving gas it will chuckle and slightly buck. When at an idle it will be going along smootly and start ...

| Loping Idle 84 245 | 16 Dec 2004 18:39 GMT | 6 |
Since I got my 84 245, it has idled erratically, surging up & dying down about once per second. It's subtle, and overall the car runs fine, but it's worrying. It's worse when the engine is hot. I recently had the fuel pre-pump replaced. Should I suspect the main pump

| 850 AC blue LED replacement | 16 Dec 2004 18:35 GMT | 18 |
I took my '95 850 in to have the burned out lights in the climate control replaced. The entire unit was black except the small yellow LED for the recirculate switch. The dealer replaced the light bulbs, but claims the blue LED for the AC switch is part of a $200 switch module. ...

| 850 CD player balking... help? | 16 Dec 2004 17:17 GMT | 5 |
My 1995 850 has a 6 CD player that was added in the trunk by the dealer. It will independently eject the cassette. I have to open the player and push the cassette back in and then it will work for how ever long it chooses before ejecting the cassette again.

| Newbie S60/S80 questions | 16 Dec 2004 00:05 GMT | 1 |
I'm new to the group, as I'm just in the early stages of researching my next car purchase. A Volvo is at the top of my list - in particular, I like what I've seen so far from the S60 and S80. (The S60 in particular.) However, in reading a number of owner reviews on various ...

My 1993 Volvo 960 is wired up for a CD Changer in the trunk - but none is there, as we didn't option it out when we bought the car. I have to drive this car 1000kms on the weekend, and would love to have some CD sound, I have a changer in my VW (a 1999.5 Golf) and was thinking I ...

In the interest of safety I am looking for LED replacement lighting for the 1993 965 and my 1999.5 VW Golf. The VW has a rear centre brake light that is LED's, but its side brake lights are standard bulbs, the Volvo uses standard bulbs everywhere. I want to at least upgrade the ...

I have a V50 T5 being built as we speak. I can't wait to pick it up in Sweden! I noticed that it comes with an AM/FM, CD stereo. I got the upgrade, but I think that the only difference is a 6 CD changer. I have an MP3
