You’re not Jeremy clarkson… stop it

Hi Pong. How about changing the E-brake cable. Particularly paying attention to how to achieve proper length along the rear axle. Appreciate the effort. Doug Day, Maine, USA

Tank you 🎉🎉

Nice, Steering wheel is on the wrong side lol, i hit all the buttons, as a fellow Volvo driver :o)

Same on the V50. 👍

Super

1st 2 knew. Last 2 new. Ta ever so.

And tell people to read the handbook.

Thank you for the tips.

Autism’s?

Life's just too damn short to be without a 940 wagon. You've done a good thing, Dude.

Absolute garbage.

FYI, if anybody is struggling with their seat getting jammed on re-installation/ removal, you may find it easier to separate the sliding bottom from the top seat cushions. (4 alan key bolts on the height adjustable drivers seat, or 4 12mm i think bolts on the passenger seat. You will also need to cut the cable ties holding the heated seat elements to the sliding mechanism.) I've also swapped the bottom cushion, side trims and rails, so if anybody is struggling send me a message!!

Handy video thanks my man. Swapped out my half and half 940s for tan full leather 740s. Looking for a tan rear leather set now!

1:07 - This tip saved my bacon a few weeks ago. Thankfully I'd watched your video!

That is a magical vehicle.

My 2003 Audi Allroad Quattro does that with the windows but I still want a Volvo V70R RED in color.

Nice!

Happy you found a new one

Do you know when the windows down with key feature was added to Volvo cars? I’m looking at at 2011 xc70. 🤔

Nice project, good luck with it! Regarding the ‘rev counter’, it’s actually a fuel flow meter that was standard on all later model Trabis, nicknamed the mäusekino: ‘mouse cinema’. If yours is still hooked up, it’s powered by a little turbine in the middle of the fuel line down the bottom of the offside front wing just before the carb.

I can't see the last hook that stick the seat before you took out.

Lovely new project, even though it is communist

Funny video. Just like you, I found out the hard way that it is located on the other side of where you/I started. There really is no elegant way to reach that panel. Even for a flexible Audi mechanic like yourself :-) Beautiful car you have.

Any chance you know where I could get the seat

the first 3 seconds at 0:20 sounds like a tie fighter lol

What many D5 owners don't know is that if there's an awful wet plopping noise coming from their oil filler, it's caused by a vacuum leak. The pump vents excess air in the system through its oil feed from the exhaust camshaft. Many owners either think, or have been told they have some sort of catastrophic engine problem, whereas it's usually just a knackered vacuum engine mount allowing air into the system. lift the revs a little and if the noise goes, it's definitely a mount as the vac feed to them is shut off above idle. It's a good idea to fix the issue sooner rather than latter as it can lead to oil starvation to the vac pump and they're not cheap to replace.

i remember a guy on the forums moaning that the front passenger seat didn't fold forward on his V70 for long loads. He'd owned the car for 3yrs and didn't know about the little lever on the back of the seat 🤣

20 seconds later: BINGO BINGO BINGO

Thank you so much for this. Ordered a fresh pair of indicator units and headlights for the MOT. Going to be a quick and easy job I hope.

it's all in the manual. if you don't know those you just didn't read it.

Looks like a better Luton airport 😂

Thanks for the help! Just bought a 94 940 Turbo and it definitely needs a good clean!

Post combustion with flare? It's a Ukrainien pilot?

Hi. It is not the original exhaust system?

I just read through the manuals without even owning the car myself... yet 😂 but it's good video for an average owner!

Well as a Volvoniac myself those are things that I'm quite aware of. I've had a 240, 740, 850 (all wagons) and currently I have V70 II facelift (P2 platform). What I'm most amazed of is the fact, that the Astra J Wagon I had between the 850 and V70 II did all of those Volvo things too (Including the "windows" trick which all pre-V70 III generations lacked) and in a pretty similar way and the whole car felt like a Volvo too. I have a strong suspicion that either key engineers who worked on 850/V70 worked on Astra J or Opel/Vaughall had those cars for inspiration. The similarities were more than just mere coincidences. I drove the Astra for 230 000 kms and I was more and more amazed by details and little volvo pecularities I discovered. I even called it "the honorary Volvo". Apart from the 1.4T engine and old GM automatic transmission, which were very un-volvo-like and both failed miserably.

Cool!

Rolling down the windows down with your key works on many cars. Often just needs to be activated.

I believe all the windows going up and then down. Is called global opening or closing. I think basically every car that has remote locking and all electric windows has it. Vauxhall had this in 1986 it even does the sunroof if its an electric sunroof.

100,000 miles in, had no idea whatsoever about these and my XC70!

Love this. Just one question, please always post which Year and Sub Model of XC70 this is?? Best to you, chap!!!

Hi could you please let us know the brand of your toolkit

Fuel flap release is very handy, thanks 👍

Think the Vauxhall Cavalier started that electric window trick that was in the 80s

Damn i didnt know thr window thing 😂

Put led in your park. Much much nicer

I’m researching buying one of these and what’s with everyone making a point of them having global opening/closing…?! Pretty much every car I’ve seen since the mid naughties has this…

I knew everything :)

Yes...7,6..👍👎🥺
