Does anyone know what would cause the
sunroof on a 2001 V70XC to operate eratically?
The switch doesn't seem to be the problem
and a new power module was put in for a
test but that didn't solve the problem
either.
Is there a relay or circuit-breaker in the
system that controls the sunroof? I read
something about a software problem causing
power windows troubles in the V70. Does anyone
know if there is a reset procedure? Thanks ..read more

Brand new to the forum, & needing some insight on a potential V70 purchase. This would be my first Volvo, but I have been a fan for decades.
It's a 1998 w/270k on it. It seems to run fine -- it'll get up & go when you ask it to, & it stops well & straight, and the engine is quiet & smooth -- but I know less about 5 cylinders than I do about every other kind of engine, & as I am only mildly competent with a lawnmower engine ... well, you do the math.
The apparent problems are essentially...

bought this v70 without a radio and just got a replacement radio from ebay. Its a FoMoCo MOdel 34W485C single CD radio. Has a 14-character serial number starting with VO.
It started without any issue, the channel info displayed and the radio played for a few minutes. Then it went quite, and the display screen went blank.
What am i missing ..read more

Hello,
My 2004 V70 station wagon was flooded. Water in the cabin up to the bottom of seats. Ended up with a number of electrical issues. Removed the carpets, vacuumed the interior really well, and parked a dehumidifier inside for several days. Some, but not all of the electronics came back. Car has 148,788 miles, is in great condition otherwise, and runs great.
Current issues that I'm aware of are: Check Engine light is on, power windows don't work from the driver's seat, power door locks...

The reversing lights on my 1997 were intermittently not working and have now stopped working altogether. I finally located the reverse switch on the transmission after removing the airbox. The switch appears to be working OK. Is there a relay in the system that I haven't found?

Hi!
I have recently acquired my first car, a 1997 V70 2.5 TDI and can't for the life of me find a workshop manual for it. There's a Haynes manual for the petrol V70 of that era and one for the diesel mark 2 (2000-2007) but can't find one for my exact model. Anyone got any recommendations on how to find the info I need to do minor repairs and services myself? Thanks ..read more

My 190k mile Volvo 2008 V70, otherwise in very good shape and well maintained, has a new grind. While the car is cold, for about 10 miles, it grinds when decelerating. It also gets much louder in reverse. Could the transmission fluid be low? I cannot check transmission fluid on this car, it is sealed. Or something else? Thank you

I have a 1998 V70 AWD (manual transmission) from Ontario Canada, that I
want to register in California, USA while I am studying here for the
next two years.
I'm in California now, but still have Ontario plates and permit; I'm
worried that I should be registering my car here to avoid any
problems..
Has anyone been through this process at all before? What about for a
simliar model/year of car ..read more
