Here it is:

I have a 940 automatic volvo with 156000 on clock. This problem has got
me stumped and the mechanic is scratching his head too. The car is

AM going to buy a compression tester for 92 Volvo 740 w/ B230FT
engine. The spark plug type is  Q16RU11. Need to know what size

I have a 1990 765 TiC and my transmission is failing...my options

I'm trying to revive a 1992 940 Turbo sedan which has been parked for
one year.  The battery is dead and won't take a charge, so I want to
replace it, but I'm having trouble with its hold-down bracket.  I've

I've pretty new Volvo S40 (2005), and I'm wondering is it possible to connect some AUX device (like MP3 player) to Volvo sound system? The sound system is integrated, and it's the basic version of S40 sound systems, but still I've this feeling that there's some AUX connector ...
