Opinion wanted on rust on car - link to pics included14 Feb 2006 09:04 GMT17
I have been looking at buying a 8yr old white volvo. It has some rust
showing through, which I think is unusual for a volvo? Would this be a
sign of poor repair accident damage?
Is it likely to get worse and costly to repair? Is it  bad enough to
1992 940 turbo wont start -Air intake hose problem?14 Feb 2006 04:37 GMT8
My 1992 940 turbo wont start after some minor maintenance.   While
working on my 940 I noticed the bottom of my air supply hose was kind
of thin and creased along the bottom.  I could not see if there was a
hole in it or not.  This is the hose that goes from the air cleaner
Engine Rattle14 Feb 2006 04:08 GMT9
I have a 96 Volvo 850 GLT. On start up some times the top of the engine will
rattle for a few seconds and stop. The oil and filter are ok. Can the oil be
dirty? Can the filter be the wrong one? Can I be using the wrong oil?  It
seems this will happen when it is cold outside. Thanks
Which fuel injection system do I have in my 940 turbo?14 Feb 2006 02:11 GMT6
My Chilton manual does a good job of helping me determine my engine and
transmission models but does nothing to help me determine my fuel
injection system.  I have a 1992 940 turbo and the manual gives me
three possible injection systems.  A jetronoc, a motronic and a Regina.
If I will damage the transmission driving with the overdrive on, until repaired ASAP.13 Feb 2006 14:54 GMT22
I will be forced to drive in 3rd gear until I can find why the
overdrive in my 86 240 DL Volvo is stuck in the ON position.
The (automatic transmission) gear shift knob has the on off button for
overdrive. The yellow arrow light stay on. This just started an hour

the intake near the spring throttle "fishing reel" thingy and over the
fuel rail and injectors. This hose down below has a white and black
1987 Volvo 740 GLE - 196,000 miles - $50013 Feb 2006 01:30 GMT16
Hi, I am brand new to this forum and brand new to Volvos. I just bought
a 1987 740 GLE for $500 from a Professor of Business at the university

How does Volvo weather leather now?12 Feb 2006 22:56 GMT10
My sister owns a V70 thats about 11 years old.  I've noticed in her car
what I've noticed in a few Volvos--that the leather seems to crack and
degrade, not aging gracefully.  I am considering purchasing a 2002 to 2004
S80.  Should I be concerned?  Has the quality of leather ...

XC90 Gull Wing Doors?12 Feb 2006 21:57 GMT5
I saw a website that advertises a Wing door kit for the XC90.
Is that for real? Does Volvo actually make them?
Google search has articles about a Volvo concept car design
that had them.
FUEL Economy-Out Of Warranty? Who Cares? 12 Feb 2006 21:54 GMT10
I've noticed an enduring thread in this group regarding fuel economy. I
might be crazy but I just had this thing installed on my XC 70 yesterday
and I'm testing it out to see what difference it makes. This was tested
on NBC local channel here in Las Vegas a few months ago and it ...
"check engine" light .... interesting follow-up!12 Feb 2006 20:44 GMT4
A month or so ago, I posted some messages here about the "check engine"
light on my '89 240 wagon. The car has about 213,000 miles on it, and I
bought it a little over 3 years ago at about 168,000. Other than routine oil
and filter changes, plugs and wires, brake pads (and front ...
Do you own a 440?11 Feb 2006 23:10 GMT7
What's your honest opinion of your 440:
How reliable/how often does it need repairs?
What kind of fuel economy does it get?
How comfortable is it to sit in for hours?
