(For context I own a 2000 s70 glt se)
Recently after taking my car on the longest drive i've taken it on since buying it my Ac compressor went out and caused my belt to burn up and snap, any advice on where to get the replacement parts.

Went to look at a pristine 80k mile S70 garaged, no rust, and not driven for at least five years.
Beautiful interior. Bad clear coat. Sun roof, iffy headliner. 80K miles. $750.
It was as described.
What they didn't describe is that there was not a drop of coolant in the engine.
Not even in the lower radiator hose. Didn't bother with a freshly charged battery I brought or unpacking tools.
I should have asked Sancho Panza if there were any questions I failed to ask before embarking on my quest.
Looked at a worst case scenario, and passed. Mr. Murphy was an optimist in my experience.
It was only ..read more

Hello.
Recently purchased this vehicle with 80,000km.
Came with 3 keys and a central locking remote.
Is there a common issue with these not cranking intermittently? First thought it was a 'dud' key but happens with all keys. No noise from starter, just won't crank on start like the lever is not in 'P' position. Of course it doesn't happen when you show the problem to somebody lol
Cheers ..read more

Im worried that I have bent the crankshaft sprocket end of my engine while trying to remove the crank nut with a breaker bar and the crankshaft holding tool (which I managed to bend considerably)
The new harmonic balancer wobbles a bit, as does the shaft it sits on. I tightened the nut as much as I could with a 1/2” ratchet wrench to ensure I didn’t cross the threads when I gave it a couple ugga duggas with the 600ft lbs impact.

This part of the crankshaft
Also because of this, my brand new timing belt is riding towards the block and occasionally squeaking.
Is it ..read more
