Today while my daughter was driving our 1993 945T began to release smoke
from under the drivers seat (memory power seat). Pulled over, shut down
engine and got out. Smoke continued and then flames rose over the front edge
of the seat. Fire was put out with extinguisher and on ...

The left front tire on my 87 740GLE has a slow leak.  I immersed the wheel
in water and found that there were 6 or 7 small air leaks in adjacent
grooves in the tread along about an 8 inch section of tire.  My first
question, which is not Volvo specific, is whether such a leak can be

I have a cherry '90 760 wagon that served as a hobby vehicle for
stereo installs while I engineered the new 9-liter (yes, nine!)
mid-engined drivetrain that's going to use all that space in the rear.
Consequently, I'm selling off all my current equipment.  All about 6

I was off throttle and when I tried accelerating ...nothing. I pulled off

My car cuts off after about 30 miles or so. It wasn't doing this regular at
first.. Now its everyday. It does start up again but not always right away,
sometimes I sit for 20 30 mins. other times it starts immediately. Does a

Just been to Volvo and they are quoting ?160+ for replacements.
Bit steep!
