I am experiencing an intermittant problem with my car "spluttering".  It is
happening more often.  I was advised to replace fuel filter, which i did

The volvo is a 97 with 180,000.  The problem is there is white smoke
coming out of exhaust,  The motor has a lot of pressure in it.  When car

realeased.  When coming down a hill it really stinks from exhaust ...
tranny problem08 Jul 2006 18:52 GMT2
I've got a 90' 740 GL with a bunch of miles on it (over 200,000) and I
hauled a load with it the other day and may have screwed up the over drive.
It's been about a week since the hauling and it won't shift into O.D. until
it gets warmed up. All other shifting is normal but it ...

the computer that's under the glove compartment in front of the

850 engine oil switch?07 Jul 2006 21:37 GMT6
I have an 850 turbo with about 225000 miles which doesn't leak or use
much oil. I've been using regular oil but my mechanic keeps telling me
to switch to synthetic. I heard that switching in a hi mileage engine
will cause leaks. Any advice?

1998 V70 AWD ABS rear speed sensors07 Jul 2006 12:51 GMT3
Following my trip to the mechanic for the intermittant stalling issue,
the ABS light came on and they recommended replacing the two rear speed
sensors.  There was a considerable part and labor expense associated
with the estimate to repair and in reading online, it seems to be that
85 740 transmission swap07 Jul 2006 07:28 GMT4
Suppose I had an 85 non-turbo non-od 740 with a bad (automatic)
transmission, and a nice transmission (automatic) from a turbo 87 740.
The 87 trans is 3 and some inches longer overall than the 85.   How
smart would it be to try to replace the 85 with the 87?  Driveshaft

What can be said about the Volvo V90's? I am buying a 1998 with 110k that is
in pristine condition. Anything I should look out for? Anything I should
have immediately checked out? Any info on these would be greatly
appreciated.
1989 244 DL Brake/Reverse Light Problems06 Jul 2006 22:03 GMT1
I recently replaced the rear-tail light assemply in the effot to fix a
lighting problem, instead it just cost me a few bucks and the problem
remains. The issue is that the rear running and reverse lights do not
work. The turn signals and brake lights work, but not the others
