| 850 GLT - Remote start causing stater failure? | 27 Apr 2005 12:48 GMT | 1 |
After going through 3 Starters in two years, my Volvo dealer remembered a similar case where a lady with a 950 had a similar problem. Starter would just go "Click" Hitting the starter would start it on the next try.

| Brake replacement question on 95', 850 Turbo | 27 Apr 2005 10:16 GMT | 5 |
I had my breaks inspected and was told I need new pads and rotors. Is is possible to have new pads installed without the rotors being changed at the same time? I'd like to install new pads now and new rotors in another 1000 miles. If it's possible, would it be safe?

Last year, I brought my car in for a routine service to the dealer (even though it's a 1987 240DL wagon Volvo, it's been maintained all these years by the dealer), and they told me that the "trip odometer button fell into the dash" during the service, but not to worry about it. ...

My 87 Volvo's overdrive is not working (hasn't worked since I bought it 3 months ago). Apart from that, the transmission is working flawlessly. It does not miss a beat. I'd like to know what your thoughts are on getting the overdrive fixed. Is it worth tinkering
