In cold weather now it takes about 10 to 15 seconds when I turn the ignition
key to ON for the instrument panel gauge lights to all light up.  Once this
happens then I can turn the key to START and the engine starts fine.  If I
just turn the key to START on a cold morning then ...

Just picked up a 1998 V70 AWD, and neither the ABS or the TRACS light
come on when starting the car, the TRACS light does not come on when
the TRACS button pushed, and the ABS does not work, any quick remedies
to try?

I set my idle on my 940 tubro, 1992 to 900 rpm and it is adjusting

I've got a trusty '87 760GLE with a B280F that seems to still keep on (lets
not say ticking, cuz thankfully it is not!!) running.
I'm at 290K kms (181K miles or so).
My daily trip to work is 50 kms one way.  During the summer I can expect to

can anyone tell me where i can get a NEW or UNUSED or BARELY USED radi

Anyone's help is appreciated

Hello All,
Finally managed to get the heating system back together in my 1981
vintage 245 wagon.  I had to replace the fan motor, heater core, and

the easiest way to get the top bolt out of the starter on a 188 240dl wagon

My wife's '89 740 GL has lost both its main brake lights. The light over
the trunk (back window) still works. Bulbs are good, contacts clean. No
voltage at the rear connectors when the brake pedal is pressed & the
back glass light is lit.

Hi! just got this rust - free 240 from Indy area- got clutch done and
running OK. However, steering is difficult at about 4 places in total
rotation.  Changed some fluid with Lucas magic elixir, and didnt help.  I
did notice that when car is off  and steering is painfully "manual",  ...

I have a vacuum leak at the rear of the power brake booster after I brake
and let my foot off the pedal.  Usually a slight depression of the pedle and
a slow release will stop the leak until the next braking.  Any adjustments
or fixes?  How dificult is it to replace the power ...

I would like to know if anyone knows if the number of times the wipers
sweep can be modified (lowered)when using the windshield wiper fluid?
Mine wipe about 3 times too many (on a dry windshield by then) and it is
very annoying...

Anyone have any ideas how to unlock the tailgate? It's stuck in locked
position and i can't open it from the outside. It's staying locked. Even when
i unlock using the remote, i don't hear any mechanisms to sound that it's
even unlocking. Any suggestions? All other locks are working ...

I have reason to believe the air conditioner low pressure "pressostat"
switch is intermittently faulty in my 96 Volvo 850. It is a non-climate
control system.   It has the correct charge (750g) and a gauge on the low
pressure side seems to point to the switch being bad.  The symptom ...

My younger son drove the car to his friend's birthday party.  Five cars
in that neighborhood were vandalized.  The damage to the Volvo was a
broken driver side mirror.
I want to replace it myself.  Will the side view mirror from a 740 fit

Could anyone give me a value for the resistance of one of the ABS wheel
speed pickups.  I think I've got a dodgy one.
Chris.
