| 850 Remote door lock control batteries - lifetime? | 15 Aug 2007 07:30 GMT | 3 |
How long do the two batteries CR1220 in the original remote door lock control of your 850 Volvos last? I replaced a pair maybe two months ago with two cheap pieces and though in my opinion I do not use them heavily, they are empty again. Now I have paid a little fortune for two ...

My Dad sold me his mostly dealer overmaintained 960 for $1500- in April. (spent $1700- on belt & some other stuff just before he drove it up from Florida). I am looking at taking a job with a fair amount of mileage in Suffolk County, Long Island, New York.

| Question on 92 740 A/C...... | 14 Aug 2007 02:09 GMT | 5 |
I tried a charge with Dura-Cool. I am not getting much cooling at all from the A/C. None before (there was a leak on the condenser), and little after. There is enough that at night when the outside temp is in the 80s you are cool, but it is overwhelmed by humid mid-90s

| Aircon re-cycling, 850 TDI | 13 Aug 2007 20:46 GMT | 1 |
I have a problem with the aircon in my 850 TDI - it has been for some time now. It is cooling perfectly but the compressor is recycling in 7 - 12 sec. intervals and this makes the car run a little bit eratic.

| Neutral safety switch replacement 740 wagon | 13 Aug 2007 03:29 GMT | 6 |
My starter won't start. Based on advice I've found in this group, I think my 1992 740 wagon starter won't start because of a problem with the neutral safety switch. By wiggling the gear shift in neutral as I keep the key turned all the way clockwise, I've been able to start the

I was planning to change the spark plugs in my 89 740 GL when I noticed one of the spark plugs was at an angle, which it meant it must be cross threaded. Does anyone have suggestions on how to remove it safely?

| 90 240 Odometer Quit - Again | 12 Aug 2007 12:53 GMT | 2 |
I just replaced the 25 tooth gear a month ago and it worked fine for a couple weeks then quit. It worked intermittently for a few days then quit altogether. I pulled the cluster and checked both gears and they are fine. Could the magneto that sits on the gears be bad?
