Harmonic Balancer going bad27 Jun 2009 19:21 GMT1
My 1992 940s front pulley is going bad.
Is this something that is going to stop the car from running
or can I risk driving to my mechanic 60 miles away on monday morning?

Any thoughts on the advisability or otherwise of mixing 10W-30 oil of
different brands (Castrol GTX; Valvoline Premium; Quaker State)?

86 740 2 part hub conversion25 Jun 2009 03:48 GMT10
Hi folks, subject car is 1986 740 Turbo Intercooler.
   It still has the 1 piece rotor, and I need to convert to 2 piece.
   I have a frozen caliper, and don't want to spend money on the old setup.
   I have a 1988 740 GLE for parts.  My plan is to remove the hubs from

Emissions Question21 Jun 2009 16:37 GMT4
I have an 88 240 wagon. 321K miles. Every two years in AZ I get the
emissions tested, and I fail. Alway NOX that fails. I get a new
catalytic converter, and it passes. Any suggestions as to how I can
make it pass two years from now?
Need recommendation for "air-fliter"19 Jun 2009 15:57 GMT4
Any recommendations for engine air-filters that provide the best air-
flow (compared to most air-filters)? Filters for 1997 850 non-turbo
models.
Thank-you
in-town gas mileage 98 S7018 Jun 2009 18:24 GMT3
I am getting terrible city gas mileage on my 98 S70 GLT.  Any
suggestions?  I was complaining when I was getting 15 MPG but now it
seems more like 14...
S-60 Equivalents17 Jun 2009 16:05 GMT1
What BMW and Mercedes Benz models are roughly equivalent to the Volvo
S-60? I'm thinking in terms of size, interior room, handling and
accelleration.
about brake squeal...16 Jun 2009 19:18 GMT2
not just related to my '89 240, but all cars with disk brakes seem prone to
squeal. I've always wondered just what part is making the noise. The caliper
is pretty massive, as is the rotor. Since the pads are being pressed against
the rotor when the brakes are applied, I can't ...

Has anyone had experience replacing the ABS sensor on an S70?  Trying to
find out if it is something that I can do myself.

What to do with my 142?10 Jun 2009 04:34 GMT2
I have a 1973 Volvo 142.  Mechanically it is in pretty good shape.
The body is rusting away faster than I can patch it.  I don't really
know what to do with it.  I've driven this car steadily for five years
and it has only ever broken down once.
clutch advice08 Jun 2009 02:34 GMT6
98 V70. The clutch has recently been 'howling' at me when I let it out
under stress (accelerating quickly or starting up a hill). It sounds
like a walrus almost, and it's pretty loud. It's had the factory
clutch in it for 163,000 miles so I'm pretty sure that's what I need
