'89 240DL: buzzing sound when turning on turnsignals?18 Jun 2005 20:45 GMT3
When I turn on a turnsignal, I hear this buzzing sound and the lights don't
blink. But when I turn the emergency blinking lights  (all 4 turnsignals
blinking at the same time) they work. How come?
This used to happen before in a more inconsistent manner (sometimes the
Found an abandoned Volvo18 Jun 2005 14:36 GMT32
 Been making monthly stops at a business for a year and a half, noticed
this clean, '86 760 Turbo Intercooled wagon always parked there, and
just figured it belonged to one of the employees.
 Then it occured to me it never seemed to move, and on my last stop I
Tyre types18 Jun 2005 08:23 GMT13
Anyone know the answer to this. I've damaged the sidewall of one of the tyre
on my 850. Going to have to replace it. All the tyres on the car are
rotational, ie. have to be the right way round on the car turning in the
right direction. Question is, can I just get a njormal tyre to ...
'96 850 wagon - rear wiper stuck?!18 Jun 2005 04:07 GMT10
The rear wiper on my '96 850 wagon no longer moves.
I checked the fuse and it is fine.  I thought it might be the wiper
stalk, but I can still use it to control the front wipers.  If I press
the rear window wash, fluid flows, but the rear wiper doesn't move.
S70 100k maintenance?18 Jun 2005 00:30 GMT5
My '98 S70 is about 106k miles now. A mechanic friend told me all it
needed for 100k maintenance were things like oil/filter change, fuel
filter change, transmission fluid change, and new spark plugs (all
done).
2006 XC90 much different from 2005?18 Jun 2005 00:14 GMT1
A salesperson said to buy a 2005 because the 2006s were hardly changed, they
were discontinuing the free maintenance and the financial aid was better for
the 2005s.  Truth or sales hype?  Thanks. I am coming from a 94 Explorer
Ltd.  Is there anything in particular that I should ...

1996 850 Sudden Oil Consumption17 Jun 2005 17:29 GMT14
Our 1996 850 GLT wagon, wtih 75,000 miles, has had regular oil changes and
never indicated any drop in oil level between changes.
Shortly after an oil change, two months ago, the oil light came on on the
dash and it was 2 quarts low.  I topped it up and watched it closely.  Since
740GL: many fuses have lost power!17 Jun 2005 15:20 GMT5
The car will not accelerate past 20 MPH, I am sure it is because the
ECM has lost power.  Checked fuses with ign on, and car running.  Fuse
nos. 11, 25, and 17-22 have no power at all being supplied to them.
These are all 15 amp. There didn't appear to be a common bus, but
FS: 1990 740 Turbo Wagon  $900  VA/DC area 17 Jun 2005 13:48 GMT1
Odometer currently reads 152,024.  This could go up as time passes.
NO A/C (I think it needs new compressor $$), and it is getting pretty
hot here in Northern Virginia.

volvo 740 ventilation problem17 Jun 2005 03:34 GMT2
When I step on the gas the ventilation in my Volvo 740 stops. Even when I
turn on the blower and I give a little gas the blower stops.
When the car is running idle or slowing down ther is no problem with the
ventilation.
