I am installing an amp in a '98 S70 using the stock head unit and
speakers for the moment.  I ran speaker wire from the amp to the
existing wires behind the headunit.

After travelling on the freeway at highway speed`, then returning to
city traffic/speed, my car shift very rogh. It BANGS into gear. This is
a 960 Sedan with almost 150k miles. I am due for the timing belt change
but am rolling the dice (Ahhh!!!) with where the mileage is at! The

I`m thinking over buying a 2,5 diesel (TDI) Volvo 850.
I found a beautyfull one, fully equiped, T5-R style.
Evrything looks fine except total millage - it is 323,000 km.
This car is from Germany and i think I made this run over the highways.

Did some searching on this group, and looks like this isn't an unknown
problem.
A couple weeks ago the tensioner bearings seized on my 99 V70, causing
the timing belt to cut through the cover, sending the pistons into the

i'm looking for help on repairing the wiper of a 262 volvo. i suppose
the system isn't unique to the model and i hope at least someone should
have encountered it.
the problem is that the wiper system has fallen apart and tough the

Just fitted a full replacement exhaust to my 740 2l estate. Dead easy
job, took an easy evening and most of that was getting the $*&£#
downpipe to unbolt from the manifold without breaking anything. Lucky
really - I went on holiday in it the day after!

Fellow Volvo Fanatics
Does anyone know what I would need to do to fit my 740 estate with self
levelling suspension?  Several years ago I had a 1989 740 which had it
fitted as standard but my current car doesn't.  I use the car for towing

I've tried the stuff I could find on the web, now I'm a bit stumped.
I have a 1992 Volvo 240, 151,000 miles.  Automatic.
One day, I'm going down the road, the "Up Arrow" turns on, car
downshifts...

Our 96 850 driver's seat belt is stuck, won't move tighter or looser.
Fortunately it is in a position that both my wife and I can use for
driving but want to fix it pronto. Does the trim behind the front door
easily snap off? How do I approach the repair? Would hate to ruin that

What would be the correct idle speed in a 2004 xc70? (34,000 miles)
Mine seems a little rough at 750rpm, while at standstill. No problem
with acceleration though.

I have been trying to figure out why the A/C doesn't work properly on
our newly acquired 240.  So far I have determined with a pressure gauge
that the freon was a little low and I added enough to get the low side
running pressure to around 40 PSI.

I'm a total novice. Am I getting over my head with this car? Does the rust
look like something not wort dealing with?

On my way home from shopping today, I noticed my S60 was very sluggish when
accelerating.  It felt like it lost half it's torque when accelerating.  I
had to rev the engine to much higher rpm before shifting to a higher gear.
I then noticed that my coolant temperature gage has ...
