| Does my 1987 Volvo 740 GLE have ABS (Antilock Brakes)? | 03 Mar 2006 21:41 GMT | 15 |
I have only had the car a couple weeks and hardly driven it. I have no idea. I am looking at brakes online and it matters if the car has ABS. Thanks!

| Help! 1995 Volvo 850 with 95K? | 03 Mar 2006 20:28 GMT | 29 |
I just ran across a 1995 Volvo 850 4 Door sedan with 95K miles for $3750. I've been looking to buy a Toyota/Honda for under $5000 and ran across this. But, I'm totally Volvo illiterate. Is this a good model and year? Are Volvos reliable? The car has only had one owner and seems ...

Just bought an '85 245 DL for $470, a project car for the eventual use of my son. Engine, transmission, suspension, body are sound, lots of niggling problems from benign neglect.

| .020 crank (main engine) bearings impossible to find | 03 Mar 2006 12:11 GMT | 4 |
B230F 8-valve .020 main engine bearings are non-existent, according to FCP Groton. I checked IPD, and a dozen other stores. Looks like I may have to go to the dealer and pay $167. If anyone knows of another place, that would be great. I have checked

| Replacing '84 240 DL Drive Belts | 03 Mar 2006 06:28 GMT | 5 |
This is my first post to an auto group because it's only recently that I've decided I'm bold enough to start tinkering under the hood and I'm hoping I can get a little help here since I don't know anyone who can do anything more than change their oil .

| XC90 - premature rear wheel bearings, noise? | 03 Mar 2006 01:19 GMT | 2 |
Have 12,500 miles on a 2005 XC90 V8. Lately notice a light howling, whining, at 40-50 MPH coming from rear of vehicle, possible just the right rear. Can probably discount this to tire wear, noisy tread, etc., however I have

| Strange Problem - '93 940Turbo AT/Accelerator/Heat | 02 Mar 2006 16:36 GMT | 1 |
In fairly cold weather (10-20F), the car starts and can be put into gear but the accelerator can't be depressed (seems to be stuck - but it's not). Then, when the accelerator is FIRMLY depressed - or the car warms up - the transmission won't shift out of first.

| speedometer not working | 02 Mar 2006 14:33 GMT | 5 |
Several months ago I had to replace the clutch in my 1987 DL-240. Volvo. I didn't catch it immediately, but then I realized my speedometer and odometer were not working. I thought maybe I'd forgotten to connect a cable or something.

| Auto-Rx to improve an old 850? | 02 Mar 2006 07:03 GMT | 3 |
I just did a compression test, and the values weren't too bad - all in the 150s, but I would prefer they be in the 160s - this is a naturally aspirated 850 engine. Has anyone had any experience with Auto-Rx? The claims on their

I just got a 20V 850 Wagon (70k miles) towed it home and it won't start...seems that there is lots of fuel at rail but I don't see a lot on plugs. The plugs were heavily fouled with black crud when I first pulled them. There is good spark. I supect the injectors are not
