Where exactly is the A/C compressor over temp sensor/switch on a '96
850?
I've had the problem others have been complaining about:
A/C blows cold for 10-20 minutes but then starts blowing normal hot air.

I purchased a cartridge for the passenger compartment air filter for my
2000 Volvo V70 station wagon, but can't figure out where it goes. Can
someone help me find it? Thanks.

You will remember that I related my cleaning of the door latches,
strikers, and hinges to rid them of all traces of grease and dirt, and
their relubrication them.
I went into the tailgate this afternoon for much the same purpose. I

Bei meinem Volvo V70 Baujahr 98 geht Sporadisch
beim starten die Kontrollampen für ABS und Tracs

Lampen. Weiß Jemand an was das liegen kann?

Anyone out there have experience using the subject under dash connector for
powering amatuer radio transceivers?  I suspect that the connector is there
for purposes such as powering radio gear, based on the popularity of the XC

Have a cracked lens (single type with fog lamp) on my 1991 940 from a
stone or something.  SO purchased from a "yard" a used assembly
(plastic mounting basket and all) but for the life of me, I can figure
out how to change the lens.

I have several issues with my 2001 S60 2.4T.  Some are minor annoyances to
which I have learned to adapt my driving; others are to be expected,
although perhaps not in the ways manifested; and a couple issues have
surfaced recently that have me concerned.  I would appreciate ...

I have the possibility of buying locally a spare engine and
transmission for my 92 240 wagon.  Mine has 310,000 kms and the spares
came out of a vehicle with <150,000 kms.  The engine and transmission
work fine in mine, but I figure that at some point it may be useful to

I have received the large tachometer to replace the factory large
clock on the 240 (and the small clock to go tot eh right of the

Are these 240 floor panels available after market? I have done several
searches but cannot find any.
Thanks.

I have a '91 240 wagon which I have been slowly restoring. It had been
well cared for up until about a year ago, and then totally neglected.
I've repaired a crumpled fender, rear deck replacement, rewiring the
rear deck, and miscellaneous wiring gremlins.

This is my first Volvo experience, so I am a little puzzled.
We bought this vehicle from a friend who let it sit for a
few years. Put it on the road and it seemed to run fine.
Over a few days it started running poorly, bad idle and

It's high time to move up from my trusty '88 745ti to something a little
less falling apart and I'm hoping a can swing a '98 or '99 vintage V70
to park next to the '71 1800E.  Any thing I should be looking out for

Can an AC compressor (92 244 with R34) be very noisy just due to
insufficient charge?  The system blows cold, but the compressor does
overcycle.  It is alledgedly only 3 years old and installed with the R34
upgrade by previous owner.
