Calling all Volvo security (anti-theft) experts29 Aug 2009 14:43 GMT11
I recently left my 2007 V70 D5 with an airport parking company - who managed
to lose my key! [I have a spare set of keys, and now have the car back, and
am able to drive it].
The parking company have said they will pay for a replacement key (about 200

The car was driven a couple of miles. It was behaving well
but had a fairly rough idle. The car came to a stop, the accelerator
was press, the car began to move and then stalled and has not started

Volvo S60, 93kMiles, Year 2000. Steering Stiff23 Aug 2009 21:01 GMT1
Just the other day the power steering seemed about 10-20% stiffer than
normal. Later it seemed normal again. The stiffness seems to come and
go. Still easy to drive, nothing violent at all.  Belt is fine, fluid
level just right, no leaks.  Has a 20 pence 'O' ring gone in the
Engine cleaning - internal23 Aug 2009 01:39 GMT18
I was told by a friend (don't laugh) that one could clean out the
inside of the engine, pistons, oil flow system, etc. by disconnecting
all spark plugs, draining the oil, and pouring about a gallon of
gasoline into the oil filler spout, and then cranking the engine. he

'90 240 check engine light but no codes19 Aug 2009 06:20 GMT8
So the check engine light has been on in my friend's 240 for a couple
weeks and he says the fuel economy has been lousy. I checked for fault
codes and it flashes 1-1-1 which I gather means no codes are stored.
I've never dealt with one this "new" so I'm not terribly familiar with
Volvo 940 SE  '92 my engine won't start during hot summer days18 Aug 2009 20:40 GMT1
I own a 940SE (2.0Ltr Turbo) with man. gear and overdrive.
During these hot summer days my engine will not start at all.

Is there such a thing as a computer upgrade chip for a 92 960 that
would increase fuel mileage?  Even though it would reduce
acceleration.........
where is a fuel pressure regulator on a 98 V70 Non-Turbo15 Aug 2009 20:24 GMT2
Is the fuel pressure regulator for a 1998 V70 Non-Turbo Wagon near the
fuel filter underneath the car, towards the passenger side near the
back?  Are there two pegs that hold it in place or are those screws?
98 Volvo V70 2.4L non-turbo FWD Wagon starts on 2nd attempt in the am15 Aug 2009 20:10 GMT2
I have a 98 Volvo V70, 2.4L non-turbo FWD, Wagon and on a cold start
(i.e. - overnight), the car never starts on the first attempt.  On the
second attempt it starts and runs at slightly lower rpms than normal
and rough.  Sometimes the rpms bounce around down then up again.
check engine for 60 sec?13 Aug 2009 17:37 GMT5
I'm looking at buying a 97 960. The check engine light stays on for
about 60 seconds. The guy says he thinks it's because oil pressure
doesn't reach what it should be till then. On any other car the light
goes out a couple seconds after starting. Am I being fed a line?
Volvo 144 wheel needed13 Aug 2009 07:07 GMT2
I'm looking for a replacement wheel for a 144 Volvo.
It need not be of excellent appearance, but sturdy
and usable on the car.  The wheel it is replacing
rusted out to the point where air is leaking out.
2001 Volvo S60 2.0T  -  90k Miles11 Aug 2009 23:20 GMT3
My S60 is surging/hunting at idle between 700rpm and 1000rpm. It is
more pronounced when the a/c is switched on.  I'm thinking Mass Flow
sensor.
I changed the plugs today with no change in performance.

Hi folks.  I finally got around to installing the donor strut towers
with the
   jumbo brakes from a 92 960 with ABS.
   This was installed on an 86 740 turbo that had the dual piston girlings.
