The happiest day of my life was when I saw my old Volvo leaving for the last time. Of course, my ex-wife was driving it.
Lol
I kicked mine out, told her she could take the set of encyclopedias and if I ever needed to know anything I'd give her a call. 😂
@@tylermartelle7041 i gave my ex a set of booster cables for xmas. because she likes to start shit
🥁
My ex thought her walking papers meant go be a prostitute. She propositioned an under cover detective. 🤣🤣🤣
Yes, that is where you use the key to open the trunk. Pull that little rubber stopper off and the lock is revealed
I used to use golf tees to plug hoses of that size. Works great
On the evap system codes, they're similar to what my old Volvo V50 did. Check the fuel cap is tight and the seal is intact. I solved it by checking my fuel cap and the seal was mangled so I replaced it and boom the codes went away! Always enjoy these videos Ray :)
You are soooooo good at removing brittle old plastic connectors without breaking them. I've learned a lot from you and now break somewhat fewer older connectors! Thank you!
top mount breaks because the lower ones are shot.
Some of those codes might be solved by doing a smoke test, vac leaks play havoc with volvos.
Fuel pressure can be filter or sensor.
Agree
If bottom mount(s) were also shot, then why no vibration / 'grindy noises' when Ray did his engine check at end of video?
Cant be filter because there isnt one, just a screen in the fuel sending unit. And the top mount goes before the lower ones, i have had 3 volvos and had to change the top mount in everyone of them, never had to replace lower mounts.
@@sampsani they all have filters, steel tanks volvo put the filter in the tank, but its there.
If you check your lower mounts you wont have to change so many uppers.
He also installed a cheapo duralast mount, that will last 6 months.
@@sevendyseven4090 because the top mount is holding it but its over stressed and will not last.
New viewer and sub here from Alabama because you earned it! - After 30+ years in the auto hail repair & claims business as a PDR technician, I can appreciate the challenges and solutions you demonstrate while performing your craft in public. Nice work! Although dent repair is a totally different skill, removing and replacing headliners, trim, sunroofs, lift-gates, hoods, trunks, doors, etc for access is just as tedious when dealing with the various clips and fasteners used on the interiors, some of which are one time use. Our worst nightmares are usually pre-existing electrical issues and gremlins to sort out. I really enjoy the channel as well as respect your skill, demeanor and honesty as a tech plus I've picked up several tips along the way, so thanks! The only problem I have with you is that now I find my self saying "CLICK" when anything clicks or should click. lol!
In the Volvo community we call that the torque bar, if that goes out then you pretty much need to replace the rest of the motor mounts, there is another one directly below that. If the one below it goes out you will hear a grinding noise when you let off the gas. Also don't forget the pcv system, it's on the top of the motor behind the oil cap. It will cause a high pitch squeal.
And if you ignore the squeal, expect an oil leak 😆
The yellow line on the tank and one of the coolant lines also suggests that mount has been out before, via exactly the same process Ray goes through here.
I've owned two S80's. Good and comfy cars. Liked a lot of them.
Can you use it as a battering ram like the old bulletproof Volvo 240?
@@applepoop10
A massive amount of plastics on P3 chassi, trunk and hood even. Not like the old pig iron Volvos.
Yeah... A Volvo repair! Wife will only drive a Volvo (3d one) so I've become very versed in Volvo repairs. One of ours was rear-ended and had a bunch of those same codes... Looking at that duct tape repair job it's been hit or backed into something. I would guess some of those EGR lines are bent/broken. I know they declined but I had flashbacks to the day when my wife got rear-ended at a stop light by a tween one her phone! Thanks for sharing. P.S. I've replaced the top engine mounts on her S60 twice... Cheap parts mean doing it twice!
Your wife needs to buy her own shit
My 2008 Volvo XC70 D5 has 225k miles on it as of today, runs like a swiss watch :) Never had anything major wrong with it just regular service
Our S80 2.5FT is just shy of 199 000 miles. They just will not die, I'm reluctant to replace it because now it's a game seeing how far we can take it :D
@@rosen9425 08 C30 T5 here with 196k, love it
I work on Volvos almost all day and when I saw that you were doing the mount I was thinking please unplug those coolant lines because they break like nothing and are a pain in the ass to replace
My old fam car was an 88 Volvo 740T and I had such fond memories in it. That being said, literally no other tech besides the one euro shop in town would touch it.
Those parking brakes got me, I bought a 2002 C220 estate which I bought from a family member, he said take it for a spin. After 15 minutes of not going anywhere he came out and said you are taking your time setting the seats and mirror. Which I replied where's the 🤬 hand brake. Lol 😂
Also, I found the starter went after a year. I used a 4ft long extension to get the sucker out. Boy I can't even fill a fuel tank now 😭
the grinding noise let's me know it's running
That must be the easiest engine mount to change
no joke.!!!!
I guess its more of a pitch stop that an engine mount. Reminds me of the ones on Subarus.
Gm's X cars front mount was just as easy.
and quite possibly the most expensive..... It is a Volvo after all.
@@richardflagg3084 eh, volvo engine mounts aren't that bad... the suspension and transmission are what usually what get you. Usually engine issues are only with a small number of models and years with Volvos... including my S60R which is bad about cracking blocks if you push tuning too much of drive it really hard during the summer... or if you're a dunce and drive it on anything but premium gas.
this video reminded me to check the engine mounts on my van while it's apart for other things and sure enough they're chewed through, so seems simple enough, I've got two dogbone type ones like that on the front, already did the lower one by the subframe on one side, and the other lower one appears in great shape. Worth the $77 to get rid of the noises at idle in gear.
Love my S90, I dont mind keeping up with the maintenance as its probably the nicest ride Ive test drove in ten years.
I own a Volvo V70 with more than 400.000 km, it is the best car i have ever owned, never any issues beyond what can be expected for that age/km
One of mine has 673.000km :). When I look at our nations market place and select highest km's, the Volvo section offers the most of the highest km's.
My 240 is at about 614,000 km. One family from new. I have "THE BOOK". Every piece of paper back to the day Ma placed the order.
Your engine nuity never ceases to amaze me.
I have a 2010 Volvo S80 love it.
The mount beneath it will also be gone
I’m one of these people that if it’s not complicated I work on my own vehicles but some stuff I take it to the shop Grace and peace man
Buy a pack of golf tees and keep them in your tool box. Great for pugging vacuum and small fluid lines.
I can see declining (for the moment) the potentially expensive repairs under the hood, but how does one exist without their trunk? Do they not shop for groceries? Not need to haul supplies from the model train shops? Clandestinely transport corpses to the alligators in the Everglades?
Life without a trunk is like mornings without Ray's videos. 😱
I thought we agreed to not discuss the corpses publicly until after the book got published....
@@P_RO_ my bad 😳
@@BravoSeven Out of the trunk, you mean?
Don’t forget to add without coffee also🙂🙂
That's a bad sign for those Volvos. They're reliable but only if you're mindful of upkeep. Same goes for the smaller engine BMW sedans (318, 325, 328, 330) and the Audis that don't have the horrifically unreliable 2.0L engine. Great cars but only if maintained well. Not like a 90s camry
Maybe the wrench marks were from last year's new duralast motor mount.
Duratrash
I love the wide-ranging music choices in these vids. Whoever picked the music today must have been going crazy some weeks ago when Cyndi Lauper and Corey Hart were on.
I work nights doing freight in the orange box store. I basically control the music for 2 aisles in each direction. They can vouch I could be the dj at rays shop with my genre and decade spanning playlists. It goes from rob zombie - dragula to the who - pinball wizard to bone thugs - first of the month then DMX - x gonna give it ya then Simon and Garfunkel - bridge over troubled water then Korn - blind and on and on. 7838 songs on shuffle. Even have bluegrass and Florida rock in there.
Tire patches Are definitely Aproved for pluging Coolant lines very approved Bro ingenuity at its best you use what ya got @Rainman Ray's Repairs
Those engine light codes have been brewing for some time. Where I live in the UK, if the engine warning light is on then the car will fail its annual MOT test and that means your car is off the road until it's fixed (the same with things like ABS warning lights, airbag lights and so on).
I any event, it would seem the owner's maintenance policy with that car is to do the minimum to keep it running and I suspect it will go to an early grave.
Do they run scan codes? Or could you just unwire the light behind it and get away with scamming them.
@@MrShiftyeyesshady You can't just disconnect the dash warning lights as there all light up for a few seconds when the ignition is turned on as a check the bulbs are working. It the lamps don't come on, it's a dead give away (things like ABS lights and so on, same system). It would be necessary to wire up a lamp with a timer. It's possible of course, but those bulbs are normally plugged straight into a dashboard PCB, so it's not trivial either.
Also, there are emissions checks performed too, and if the failure affects that it will fail.
since there were witness marks, I would check all motor mounts. that first one may have been changed in the past, and another one may be causing the top one to go.
I love your content Ray. I most like how I never know whether you're trolling us or whether you're really doing something or you're just filming it in a different way to try to surprise us. You just keeps us viewers on our toes. I notice, it If Know one anyone else does. LoL
Common problem with Volvo’s I have replaced several on my Volvo’s, V70 XC, V70 R, 2 98 v70 r’s. IPD makes a replacement that lasts longer.
Many Volvos go through these upper mounts every 30,000 miles or so. They can be replaced with ones that have urethane isolators instead of rubber, but they will rattle your teeth at idle. I tried one and removed it immediately after the test drive, so I resigned myself to frequent replacement of the factory ones.
I found a fix that helps without rattling teeth out. Get a polyurethane roofing adhesive and add some in to fill some of the gap. It dampens the movement without making it super rigid. Its worked great on mine.
It depends on how heavy your right foot is
We loved our old S80 except for the pesky intermittent connection at the ECM cable connection. Used to throw many random codes. Unplug it, plug it back in, disconnect Battery for a reset and good for another 15K miles. Think I found it and solder wire to pin with no success. I spent way too many hours with a meter trying to find the connection issue and never did find it before selling it.
That's my kinda repair, top of the engine and two bolts. Good job Ray
YES.!!!!!
Ten bucks says the engineer who designed that mount was sent for "remedial training." 🤣
@@UTubeHandlesSuck yep can’t be making cars easy to repair now
As a technician these are the worst repairs because you get paid virtually nothing for it lol, good for the customer, bad for the tech, I guess the customer is allowed the better end of the deal occasionally lol
Here's the Gotcha : top is breaking because lower is shot.
As a Volvo owner a couple of things: doors will unlock just by having the key on your person as will the engine turnover. No need to insert or use the buttons.
My trunk was stuck too. Turned out to be a fuse.
I believe that is the wrong coolant. My S80 and S40 use the blue.
Thanks for showing me the motor mount thing. I am better off now.
I never knew there were tire patches like that. I had an idea for something like that. Kind of a plug/patch for emergency repairs. Almost like one of those cocktail umbrellas, stick it in the hole, then you pull the stem out.
Good morning everyone
Ray you are my favorite channel right now. I appreciate you and the work you do. Always making me laugh.. A luxury when life gets to the heavy, ugly bits.Thank you.
I had an S80 T6 with 334kW / 448hp.
Sleeper car that could race motorbikes.
Also had the boot switch broken.
I bought an auction car. I brought to a shop I knew nothing about. I wanted an alignment but I knew it needed front end work. After they had taken the front wheels off, the manager brought me back while it was on the lift. He had a list of items. He gave them to me and showed me why the items needed to be fixed. After the alignment, I went home and ordered all of the front end parts on EBay. I did the work, without having to do any diagnostics. Struts, axles, motor mount, control arms, tie rods and swaybar links. Rides really tight!
You're the guy that declines all work after the tech does the diagnosis
See no problems with person denying the repairs. You take it to the shop and paid their hourly rate for diagnostic. If you are confident in your skills, why not save the money.
Videos of all automotive repairs should be made standard
Rain man ROCKS
Always smilingly at your fabulous outlook Ray. Keep on doing that
Looks like you have the Red Green model of the S80.
Golf tee work for line plugs. Cheap and colorful
The wife and I were driving yesterday and the gas light came on so I said.
“The low fuel warning indicator is illuminated...that’s how Ray would say it”
my wife brings my truck home with the oil light on. she thinks i runs on solar im sure
meant to say gas light sorry
Ray would say you and your spousal unit were motoring down the parkway when the decreasing fluid level of engine gogo juice attention illumination device illuminated. But if he said that it would need a 2 part video.
So ... your Wife was Gaslighting you ... ??
@@jacksprat3287 Your wife is gaslighting you with the pickup truck?
Need Coffee, Ray calls out Peter and then up beat music plays and my mind suddenly add lyrics
Your name is P-Tah, you are a Mech-can-Ick
You work with Ray and add to his Shtick
I say P-Tah ! Come and join the show
P-Tah! Where does this bolt go?
Back to my day job. . .
Also on a side note
Ray mentions "This nut is part of the mount"
That's what she said. . .
Good morning to you Raymond 👋and family, 👨👩👧👦it's Monday morning🤷 get the🧰😲 toolbox out BROTHER 👍
Jam a wood block in that mount gap secure with self tappers, cheap and cheerful repair
Declined repairs? I knew that was coming the moment I saw the duct tape on the bumper.
Of course
Hey Rey...the cap displeases me as well. I have the same tank in my 2014 Mondeo. I found it easier to remove and replace once the engine is warmed up. They seem to get tight with age. I did eventually replace the cap with a new one and it was easy to remove cold or hot.
I’m amazed they managed to squeeze an in-line 6 in transverse orientation into that thing!
It’s referred to as an SI6. The S is for Short. It was achieved by placing the accessories on the rear of the engine over the transmission.
3.2-I 6. Hell yeah Volvo. Love my 3.2 in my land rover
That trunk latch is missing the spring, or it has broken. It is actually an easy fix the lever that you squeeze can manually be tilted forward that would need to be done each time before the trunk is closed. Pushing the leaver forward should allow the remote to actuate the switch as well.
Glad you finally doing some content lol. I have enjoyed watching the show.
I know that car. My dad lets me drive slow on the driveway. I'm an excellent driver. I drive the car on Saturdays. Never Monday.
It's likely that the lower torque damper is missing, on those early 2010 3.2s they didn't come with them. The mounting brackets are still there and are quite easy to put in.
I think the vibration noise (grinding) from the engine mount is much better than that background "music" ?
i sell at least 4 of those mounts a week. evap leak is probably a LDP or bad fuel cap. Those are also common.
Truck drivers refer to the Volvo trucks as, Vulva. You know what that means...lol.
Content is nice. I'm one who likes to sit thru 3 or 4 part videos that last an hour or two. Makes my day seeing hard work still being done honestly. Thanks Ray.
Volvo Trucks is a completely different company and is not related to Volvo cars.
in my exp, if that mount is broke.. the front one, back one, and trans one needs changed too. lol
owner wouldn't pay I'd say
"Out with the bad, in with the good." Nice ChrisFix easter egg!
Was going to pick this up as my first car, but thinking of sticking with Japanese options instead since anything else doesn't seem very reliable.
If there's a fuel pressure regulator with a vacuum reference, all of the codes (except the TCM codes) could be caused by a vacuum leak.
Like the shop radio.
Get some golf tees. They plug up small hoses really well.
Years ago mechanics kept a supply of golf tees handy for plugging lines
If the tool gets a job done, is it really the wrong tool? Sure, it's not the specific job that the tool was designed for, but it still worked.
Ray have you ever considered wearing a silicone wedding band at work? They are non conductive and you can’t get your finger stuck in any tight space. People in the trades have de-gloved, amputated or gotten zapped due to a metal ring. I stopped wearing one altogether while working.
It’s just a thought. Silicone rings are really cheap on Amazon.
YOU GO RAY RAY...GOOD JOB...MICRO SWITCH ON TRUNK/TAIL GATES...GOOD FIND...I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED VOLVOS...FROM THE OLD DAYS OF 144...60'S STUFF...CRAZY GOOD LONG RUNNERS...BUT LIKE ANY VEHICLE TODAY...MUST BE MAINTAINED...BUMPER COVERS= TRY A HEAT GUN ON PLASTIC COVERS ....
Wish all mechanics were as thorough and honest as you are.
I always used golf tees to plug lines
Love from Volvo SWEDEN! no slacking :P
Welcoming back!
I found this mount doing that on my dads Volvo super easy fix.
Rob Zombie "living dead girl" playing in the background awesome.
My mother bought a 2010 S70 wagon, when I saw how tight that engine was in the bay I refused to ever do more then replace the headlamps.
the fob does not open the trunk on all volvos only the ones that have the powerd automatic opening. On the rest, you can unlock only the trunk by pressing that trunk button twice.
Fuel pressure is likely the sensor at the right end of the rail. A REAL pita to reach the torx screw.
I replaced mine. Wasn’t too hard.
Thank's for making content i can sleep too. Really enjoy it. :)
That mount is also broken in my XC70 - the bottom one is as well. I have a spare, just need some time to install it...
I was like must be the gearbox but was amazed when it was a broken engine mount...you just know what to look for in a car with weird sounds.
My uncle had an S80. He bragged that it was better than any BMW or Mercedes. A year in he wasn't bragging as much as it had spent almost half of that time in the shop. He currently drives a BMW which also spends half it's time in the shop.
did you check the hydraulic mount beneath the torq bar aswel? normally all 3 mounts are shot. and you did not need to disconnect the hoses just put the tank aside.
Do love a volvo
That top mount reminds me of the "dog bone" used on GM 4's in the mid 80s. That thing always broke. There was a replacement that used a hydraulic cylinder instead of rubber biscuits, but that too wore out over time.
Yup. I had an '83 Phoenix and always kept a spare on hand. Don't know why they broke so often considering the engine was fairly gutless and the 2 trans mounts were stiff as hell. The mounts on the A bodies were much better for vibration isolation.
@@patricknesbitt4003 I had an 86 Celebrity. Next to the Citation, the worst POS Chevy ever That bastard stranded me no less than six times when it wouldn't start due to a phantom intermittent electrical problem. I finally called a wrecker and got rid of it.
@@adotintheshark4848 If it was a 2.5 four banger it likely was the ignition module in the distributor. Common failure item.
@@patricknesbitt4003 it was a 2.5 and I replaced everything ignition-related. I believe it had a wiring harness fault and wasn't going to soend big bucks on basically a hooptie to figure it out.
Good morning Ray
I found that golf tees made excellent 'blockers' for small rubber tubes.
Good stuff! Will remember that one
Those micro switches on the trunk is known to go bad. Ford here in Europe use the same type on their Mondeo (Contour) and they are also known to go bad from time to time. On most Ford's there is a hidden key hole in event of that micro switch decide to not work. I think some Volvos has them as well.
Duct tape on the back quarter panel is not a good sign for a full repair.... I gamble with myself weather Ray will get the ok to fix it...
I win.....
Ray you have to hold the button on the fob for the trunk to open
I thinking you checked the other engine mounts? OK Ray another job done.
Rob zombie in the background full 100000% respect!
They looked like they've declined repairs for the last 10 years
Lmao
My question is, Why check on the 'check engine' light if you are just going to ignore it anyway? This is the kind of guy who sees the light, pops the hood and says, "Yep, The engine is still there" don't know why the annoying light is still on.
@@Bobo-ox7fj 😄😂🤣
A day without Ray would be a day without sunshine.. 🤣 Everyone don't forget to remember to have a great day! Greetings from Lake City 🌴🇺🇸😎
Thanks again Ray, needed my morning fix
We got to fix something yay
Golf T's to block hoses , cheap and universal 👍👍
I have taken my car to the shop 3 times because my car grinds like that when it’s cold, but once it warms up it goes away, had the axle replaced( torn boot) and needed brakes calipers, and pads. But they could never find the noise, watched this video and went out to my car, same mount, looked tore( not as bad as that one) but I get the noise more when I’m turning to the right, and accelerating. It’s starting to do it alittle bit when I’m turning to the left also, guessing because the engine is shifting, making it rub more on one side more than the other. I was convinced my transmission was going bad, but I’m really hoping I can fix it with a simple engine mount.
