Good suggestions. :) I started with sound insulation. Now added some chrome mouldings. Next was thinking tp put it on the wheels. So I can roll it arround and take away the frame. But most likely first I need to do the brake lines and fuel line before I do the suspension bits. Since they are there before it. Anyhooo. Will crack on bit by bit.

@realvolvofreak hard lines are easier when there's nothing in the way I found and you don't have a hoist for under body work. Àlso worth making sure the fuel system will cope with ethanol fuels. I'm slowly doing a 144 B20 K jet car and I find modern fuels cause a lot of issues with OEM parts :-)

@@tony66au o yes. Specially for the rubber parts. They were not designed to cope with ethanol.

@@Schwedenstahl245 i dont have one. 🤪

@@realvolvofreak Lucky! My SR drains are clogged and my SR is jammed shut, so I get a waterfall every time it rains!

@ ouch.

@@ricksampson6780 he he. We are all different. For me the old one for this car looks better. :)

@@realvolvofreak Your tiger gold C70 looks amazing, I have a 1999 metallic silver C70. They are without doubt, a most under-rated vehicle!

@ thanks. And yes they are so underrated.

@@Gigafreak94 good comment. Do you have xc90 that you would like to update with camera?

@realvolvofreak I'm actually looking for one at the moment. In the best case I would like to get one of the last 2014 D5 models. And if I manage to get one, I want to retrofit a backup camera, Bluetooth adapter and maybe some auxiliary lights on the front.

@ mine is early 2005. So no usb no camera no navigatioj scree. So one option is to go and buy Legend unit that would give me all the options. :) even including the carplay. But then I will loose the stock look. Not sure I ak ready for it. 🙈 and my biggest concern is if the audio quality will be as good as with factory head.

@@realvolvofreak have you seen these "stand alone" car play screens? There are many advertisements of them in the moment. They can send sound via Bluetooth, AUX or even build in FM-Transmitter. Most of them can be attached to a backup camera. So the stock radio can still be used and the screen has some kind of stand which could be installed on the dashboard.

@ they use fm modulator. That means sound is crap

Before replacing anything. Do the fault tracing. For xc90 there were two diesel generations. So I dont know which one you have. Also it could be hole in the intercooler pipe. Also intercoolers themselves got holes. Need a proper investigation before replacing parts

Quite easy. Hard to see, since it is deep inside, but doable

@@realvolvofreak are the characters on the body of the actuator clear without removal? I would rather have the right one to hand to do a straight replacement.

@@titanoboa7165 😂👌🏻👍

@@83Hobbies welcome and thank you for commenting.

@@armandscheijen2302 well. Should be the next one yes. 🙈

@@rbivns thank you

@@tony66au yes it was D jetronic

@@tony66au it can be valve seals. You can verify if the most of the smoke comes on cold start.

@@realvolvofreak Yup, Cold start but not all the time. Its not a driver yet though so id like to go through it and check a few things, Turbo seals, Intercooler and intercooler pipes to see of theres oil in the intake side etc and the PCV oil catch can as well as they are often neglected due to the location. It was stolen before I got it and had a very hard few weeks, then sat outside for 3 or 4 years. I moved it yesterday and im doing a fuel pump in the next few days as the Sprong weather here is finally warming up. Either way your Video was both interesting and very helpful.

@@tony66au sounds like a cool project. 👍👍👍

@@realvolvofreak I think so yes, Ive had Volvo's for nearly 40 years and still drive a 740 Wagon weekly but the redblocks are aging so im looking at Black badge Whiteblocks for the future. Had 850's and evolved to the C70 and a 1999 S90 Royal which is next on the project list with a 740 Turbo (HP kit) :-) Oh and a K jet 144.. Last on the list? MY00 V40T I drove daily for a few years that needs some love. I a;so collect W116 and C107 Mercedes

@@armandscheijen2302 no. But you can check this for your xc90. vparts.se/se/volvo-xc90/xc90-03-15/teknik-tillbehor/ljud/bluetooth/bluetoothadapter-till-volvo-s80-v70-xc60-xc70-xc90-c30-c70-s40-v50-17033101.html

@@realvolvofreakprobably doesn’t work since I have the dvd in the back seats. Which is mentioned as exemption.

@@armandscheijen2302 then it is Legend unit. 🙈

@@realvolvofreak 😎

@@WRBL69 yes they were quite stuck there. I ended up braking two of them.

@@jonathan6034 sound was the same. But there was definitely the lack of power. The sound could be also for different reason. Like leaking air pressure pipe.

Seams I having similar problem

@@samuellakhdari2011 on average I am doing like 13l/100 km.

@@realvolvofreak so it's like 600 km with a full tank ?

@@samuellakhdari2011yes around that

@@realvolvofreak thanks

@@fransvanderwel5933 thanks. mine had 2 broken, but decided to replace all.

Hello. Thanks for the comment. :) I was procrastinating and not getting my hands on xc90. But now I am back from vacation. Need to do couple of bits to xc60 so it is fully sorted and then can get my attention to xc90. It needs some work to be done. :)

Thanks. Yes. It is done to good standard. Not my achievement. I must admit. :) But will be doing all the rest of it myself.

@@rbivns well yes. It was in a sorrow state. But look at it now. 😃 And thank you for encouragement. And comments. Yes sound is on the list. What would be better video quality? Better content? More detailed repair instruction. Suggestions always welcome. 😃👍 thanks for comment. It means so much and is much easier to improve when having constructive feedback

@@sidneyperry7623 good question. I would say the same as for car. 15 years.

@@rbivns thanks

V8, manual and a touring! That ticks all the old BMW boxes. Would bloody love one, not sure my wallet would though! 😅

@@cheharrison7107 yeah. Wallet could suffer severe diet. 😂

Nice. Yes you can get more fruity sound out of that car. Either accessories 4 exhaust tips system. Simons sounds good. There is also on the youtube some guys in Poland have made crazy sound S80 V8.

@@realvolvofreak only issue is drivers door doesn’t lock. Sometimes goes up and down but not always?

@@leehayes70 there is a motor inside the lock mechanism. That starts to worn out. Easiest fix - replace the lock assembly.

Thanks. Previous owner’s fault. 😃

No it is not mine Armand. :) but it has interesting interior:) I am not sure I like it like you do. 🙈

@@realvolvofreak looks like an interior swap

@@armandscheijen2302 no. Actually it is original one from factory

Thanks Armand. 👍

He he. Thanks. Friend brought it to me from US.

Allright. Let me see what I can do about this subject

How strong are the trans? Any tunes for the V8?

You need to agree on the price with supplier. I has for one, you will agree on other one. Depends where you are and what are your needs. I was talking to several ones before buying this.

Do you have spark or not? If not then need to verify that ecu and coil gets power. If not then issues in wiring or then it could be that ecu (engine control unit) is bad. But that does not happen often.

Do you have fuel pressure? If not, the fuel pump relay is a common failure point. On 940s it's usually located on the fuse block behind the center console ashtray in front of the shifter. Pull out the ashtray and remove the tray above it (2 screws behind lighter cover trim).

fuel pump relay or the injector relay, on red block engines the injector relay is called the radio relay, its mounted on the pass side strut tower , theres 2 identical relays, just swap them and see if that works. i think the other relay is windshield wipers. you can open relays and reflow the solder, it cracks due to heat / vibration, its a common problem.

😂👌🏻👍 or you can call it getting tired of laying down on concrete floor

Thanks. 😃👍

Yes there is a lock. That what I mean. While working under it you can lock both sides so in case hydraulic fails it stays up. To be honest it looks to be built from quite hefty and thick metal.

Appriciate your comment. :) And probably the same can be said about the american cars here in Europe. Since we dont have them a lot. I see the xc90 as solid and easy car to work on. Generally I find them to be easier to work on comparing other European brands. But yes it has some odd things as well. Like the plastic hatch. It is like that on most volvos so they do not rust. And yes that v8 sound. Since it is 60 degrees between lines it sounds different. And I love that sound. 😃

You are welcome

Yes. This why I like the older one better.

Yes it did. Well was it just a fluid or the Shudder Fix juice. Probably both.

@@realvolvofreak Which additive did you decide to use?

That means you could have issues with fuel system or temperature sensor. Either not having enough fuel presssure. Need to check that. Or some of injectors are leaking when car is hot. Is it possoble for you to read codes that are stores on ECU?

@@realvolvofreak temperature sensor is new / Bosch. Still the same.

@@realvolvofreakdo you mean not enough fuel pressure because of fuel pressure regulator issue?

@@aleks5249 yes. Or leaking fuel injector can cause this issue as well

Nice. 👌🏻👍 What colour it is?

@@realvolvofreak Both titanium grey. I wish they still sold the seat skins for the R-Design style. The leather still looks great, it’s the stripe is starting to crackle.

Exactly. Just good old buttons. And. You could also get MD player in there.

Thanks. Not really the Swede, but living in Sweden. 🙈 anyhow thanks.
