I got a P0455 couldn't find any leaks so I shut it off to see if it would come back. Replaced my sticking seat belt and blew the SRS light. My indi (Dennis Auto Aramingo Ave. Philadelphia) can turn it off. Next couple of drives, no codes. Then P0410 and she is running a little rough as well as inhaling fuel. Other light on the cluster got jealous...Tracks off and ABS light came on last night. Took a closer look today. There is a hose disconnected, followed it back to the evap charcoal... 1998 V70 Base FWD NA Evap hose disconnected ..read more

Hey there everyone! So, to be honest, this is a much delayed thread. I wasn't entirely sure if I was going to make a dedicated thread for my car, mostly owing to the fact that admittedly I just didn't do most of the work myself. But I thought this could now be a thread of my journey in learning more of this stuff and how to do it myself. One of my favourite things about SwedeSpeed is reading other peoples dedicated threads about their cars, and the time and effort they've put into them. It's... Omisake's 1999 S70 Journey ..read more

It's about time that I make a thread for my new car, a couple of you already know about it but I am happy to announce I have finally found one of my dream cars! The 1999 V70 T5m in beautiful 601 red. I am the proud third owner of it, bought from a guy with 6 kids in Iowa who took less than stellar care of it and drove it like he stole it. But the Iowa guy bought it from the original owner in...

Hello to everyone. I am writing this message for a multitude of reasons and will fit everything in here. First of all I just want to say my car is very clean (98 Volvo V70 XC) it had 74000 miles on it and is completely stage zero. I want to say that I am not a big fan of the front end of the car and dont like the plastic part of the bumper I could either remove or replace it but am not sure how to go about either route. I also have some money to spare to add some engine/ performance... Looking to upgrade my v70 XC ..read more

I want to start a thread for this car. I know there were not many factory manuals imported to the states for 98-2000 T5; I have seen threads and charts that range between 120-150 ish per year (for all colors) which makes these very rare indeed. I found the car on FB marketplace in Tampa, FL. I am in Boone, NC and this is my first Volvo. Having a long time wagon fetish (and regretfully selling an 05 Subaru Legacy GT Wagon in silver with the rare 5 spd about 10 years ago…) This particular...

Hello! My fuel pump has gone bad and I thought it’s a perfect time to upgrade. I’ve seen a lot of people do a walbro 255. What are the power limits to this? How long of an install? I’m aiming for 300 whp with the possibility of RN swapping with the aim of 400 whp. Thoughts? I’ve seen kits for a 340 as well ..read more

I recently picked up an M66 for my 2000 V70R, and I have a couple questions about this swap as I gather parts... 1- any input on what clutch disk to use? From what I understand, I can keep my 850R pressure plate (currently running an M56) and my single mass flywheel. I read something about needing to modify the disk somehow, but no details. 2- clutch line... will the internal slave P80 clutch line (9181324) work with the P2R M66? 3- anyone know where to get Hussein Holland's P80 M66 side...

Hey everyone. Found a V70R the other week on marketplace and pulled the trigger. Couldn't believe I found this one, a car I've always wanted. I'm from St. Louis and the car was all the way outside Kansas City. Made the drive to go pick it up after some back and forth with the owner. When I got there I was surprised by how rough it was. Basically no clear coat, missing the spoiler, mismatched tires, nearly every interior panel loose or broken, rough idle, coolant smell. I drove 280 miles for... 2000 Venetian Red V70R Project ..read more
