Hi All, New member and excited to be here. I'm new to the Volvo world, acquired a 2004 XC70 last year and likely going to get another xc70/90 later this year for the family. I'm hoping to learn a lot from the community, I do a lot of my own maintenance and I learned it all from forums like this one and youtube...and my mistakes! I got some work to do on my 04 XC70 this year, timing belt is due and I'll want to replace whatever else while I'm down there. Looking forward to reading... Introduction ..read more

Since updating my car to the 3.03 software, entering a destination in google maps no longer activates the smart energy distribution funcation. I don't get the symbol next to the battery in the driver display. It operates as if there is no destination set and it just runs the battery down to 0% and the engine kicks on.

204,xxx mileage 2007 FWD S60 2.5T. Cars been having a pretty significant engine shudder past 55mph. Car feels completely smooth when letting off the throttle. The shudder happens under medium to heavy acceleration, and when under load. All the motor mounts were replaced last summer and I just put on a IPD Poly mount today trying to fix the issue. Obviously it didn't fix it but it is a little tiny bit better. I don't wanna start chasing this down and throwing parts at it, so I'd like to... 2007 Volvo S60 2.5T FWD Shudder ..read more

This article has broad implications of now and the future of electric cars and manufacturing in China vs the US. With underlying explanations of how they can make the XC30 so cheap. While written by a U.S. car journalist from "Inside EVs," it is long and detailed article about China's hyper-competitive market. But an interesting read about how far ahead the Chinese are with their EVs, with some details about American cars in China that we never see. [URL...

I was hoping to find some tips before getting into this project and damaging old plastic parts. I have a 2001 C70 coupe that I'm trying to do a light restoration. One of my rear Dynaudio speaker is getting no sound. All the others work. I was going to pull teh speaker and when I look at the rear packages help I want to pull the speaker covers as well. They look to be very brittle and I don't want to pull at these and break them. Like everything else that I do on this car, I put things... C70 Coupe rear speaker removal help needed ..read more
