Here is something to ponder;
A while back i reported to this forum a strange and sudden loss of
economy, thanks to all that gave suggestions.  In desperation to fix

Here's a list of problems I've had with my car:

What does the JETRONIC COMPUTER do?
And what is the black box that sits right in front of the JETRONIC?
It looks like another computer box.

I see that the left rear tire on my '97 855 is getting kind of bald. I
found a screw in it some time ago and apparently ran too long before
getting the problem fixed.
The right rear still had a goodly amount of tread on it although it

Hi! If you remember, some days ago, I had a problem with the fuel pump and
the relay. I solved the problem: was the relay.
This mornig while I was checking the liquids (oil and water) I saw a leack
of water from the expansion tank. While the engine is turning from the

Don't get me wrong, this car has been great to me! bought it a year
ago with only 95k miles on it, but right away a problem started.  If i
filled the gas tank more than halfway, the car started to seriously
hesitate when accellerating, sometimes even stalling out completely.

My friend just got this car and the Check Engine light is on.  The guy he
got it from said he'd had the computer scanned and the message was to

does anyone have a suggestion for a set af all-seasons tires for my

I've got a bit of a problem with my Volvo.  1988, 240 GL.  The
steering wheel shudders at high speeds.  It's fine until I hit 55 MPH

enlighten me what this does, and what are the pros and cons of it, and risks
if disconnected, if any ?
I have a 2.5 TDi V70 (1997 - Direct Injection) and am always looking for

My 940 Turbo Celebration (1998, 160Kmiles)) has a very noisy engine, and I
think  ineed to bite the bullet and get another one.  (it was noisy when I
bought it and sounded like tappets, but it isn't and it's gradually getting
worse - suspect either a big or little end) The engine ...

I'm trying to get my old '84 245 whipped back into shape without any
local Volvo-savvy mechanic available.  There's a young guy here who's
probably way more comfortable working on big diesel dump trucks than
Volvos, but he's willing to work on it if I get the parts. So far he's

My 240 is dead!!!
I think that's the fuel pump because when I turn the key I don't listen any
noise from it.
Is it right?

Speed indicator on my 91 Volvo has stopped working, but oddly the
odometer is still working normally. Other gauges are fine. Fuses fine.
