240 Bumper28 Feb 2009 18:34 GMT4
The right rear bumper on my 88 245 is suddenly not aligned to the car.
It is level, but the right side is about an inch farther from the car,
relative to the left. It would appear the right has moved out, as some
of the trim above the bumper has seperated on that side. I can't ...
2001 volvo S80 T6..., To buy or not to buy?????28 Feb 2009 16:37 GMT4
I'm interested in buying a 2001 Volvo S80, it has about 180k on the
clock but has been well maintained. I have read some reviews about
this car and have mixed feelings. Some people had had nightmares with
these cars while others have had a relatively trouble free cars. I
Old gas in 240 DL27 Feb 2009 22:12 GMT5
My 1990 240 DL has been sitting for months now and I need to sell it.
My question is whats the easiest way to get rid of the old gas? Can it
be drained from the tank or can I just add a bottle of HEET? Thanks.
v70 Seat belt stuck27 Feb 2009 19:51 GMT2
Greetings I posted (new service provider so different account) over a month
ago about driving a v70 T5 across from east coast Australia to Perth towing
a boat.  All fantastic, even in the 46 degree heat on the Nullabor the temp
stayed dead center, I was very happy with it.

1990 740GL bent spindle?23 Feb 2009 18:12 GMT5
I recently acquired the car, and found it has a gentle but constant pull
to the left while driving, that wasn't particularly noticeable during the
giddy excitement or the initial test drive. I checked for the usual things;
uneven tire pressures, conical tire wear, bent control arms ...
1995 440 Tried to start - loud bang - now nothing ??23 Feb 2009 10:53 GMT10
First post on here.
Went to start the 440 this morning, it tried to start as normal then
after about a second  there was a loud bang. Now it won't do
anything.
XC70 Satnav19 Feb 2009 18:25 GMT1
Does anyone know if it is possible to improve the performance via firmware,
updates etc, of the built in satnav. It is so slow and lacking features. (
2008 XC70).
Battery died - stereo went out with 'code', cruise control broken,     'service' light on17 Feb 2009 00:43 GMT3
My battery died overnight when a light was left on in my 2004 C70. The
stereo system has stoppped working - only the word 'code' comes up in
the radio panel and none of the features work. The cruise control is
also not working. There is predictably a 'service' light on. A trip to
740 rattle noise on deceleration15 Feb 2009 03:00 GMT23
Thanks to all who commented a couple of years ago on a flashing oil
light.  I tried a different oil pressure sensor;  and it's been fine
since.
Now, the 86 740 turbo has a new rattling noise, mostly on
Protect Volvo C30 plastics after carwash13 Feb 2009 11:02 GMT3
I am a new proud owner of a Volvo C30. I want to ask if somebody know
any product to apply on the body plastic parts to protect them from
sunlight and delay the "aging".
Thanks in advance!!
92 Volvo 94013 Feb 2009 10:50 GMT5
My speedometer/odometer was intermittent for quite a while but has now
stopped working altogether. Repair is estimated at A$350 so I would like to
see if I can fix it myself.
Any ideas anyone?

Faded 1990 740 bumper08 Feb 2009 13:41 GMT5
The bumper on my 1990 740 GLE is in good shape for it's age but the
original color, a sort of medium brown, has faded considerably. When
it's wet the color is much like what I believe to be the original but as
soon as it dries it's back to the very (!!) light tan.
visor won't go up - what to do?07 Feb 2009 00:25 GMT4
The visor on the drivers side of my C70 won't stay in the up position.
I'm afraid to change the visor out with the one on the passenger side
due to the airbag that may or may not be inside of it. There doesn't
appear to be any mechanical thing I can adjust except 2 screws that
