I'm not on social media or any other Volvo sites. Trying to find out if the Bright Silver paint code (711) is the same for wheels and cars. So far I haven't found anything that says they're not but no confirmation that they are either. Trying to get my Pegs refinished and I want to make sure I get the right color put on them. P.S. The internet sucks now.

Hi everyone, I'm having an issue with the rear door of my Volvo 940 after replacing the exterior door handle, and I'd appreciate some advice before I start taking things apart again. Yesterday, I replaced the exterior handle, and everything seemed to work perfectly. I tested opening and closing the door several times from both inside and outside, with no issues. However, as soon as I locked the car and tried to unlock it again, the door became completely stuck. Here's what I've noticed... Read more

Hi there guys I have a 1993 volvo 244 N/A +t its an LH 2.4 car and it’s got a td04 13c, 940 intercooler and rad, orange top injectors with a 0 280 000 954 ecu and a 0 227 400 207ezk. The computers were from an unknown turbo egr car so they throw codes but I don’t believe that would cause any running issues, correct me if i’m wrong. The car has had all the afr lean/rich codes since being turboed but for the most part has run well once the computers adapt. I have a wideband gauge but I believe... Read more

I'm looking, I only see bearing kits (and not too many of those). I'd rather just swap a new hub inand shorten the screwing-around time. Pressing bearings in and out of old rusty hubs is not my fave. Thanks

I have some slotted and drilled rotors on my 1990 245, I am thinking of (if possible) swap rotors to a 1987 volvo 745 turbo. Is there any restrictions? is this even possible???

As it arrived Back was full of various parts too It was a great starting point. Arizona car most of... Read more

Hi guys, My Volvo 740 sedan is constantly leaking gas, seemingly through the gas cap. I assume the fuel is getting pushed out while drifting, and the gas cap doesn’t seal properly. The gas cap also doesn’t "click" when tightened after refueling—it just spins infinitely. I know my Volvo 850’s cap "clicks" when it's tight enough, but I’m not sure if that's just an 850 feature. Does anyone maybe have a solution for this?

Good afternoon, I recently bought a set of aftermarket e codes from Swedish car parts to install on my car. Instalation was identical to regular e codes, and everything seemed to fit together well/wire up correctly. I did also use a set of the RSR connectors from penta, since they were not provided in the kit. Anyways, after the install and confirmation of function, the aim was off, which is to be expected at first. But when I went to aim them upward, they appear to not aim very far... Read more

Odometer reset button broken. Since I need to have a mechanic do work on my car I make every effort to have all needed parts before making appointment. I also try to have any additional work done in ‘the immediate area’ ... Does the instrument cluster have to be removed to replace the odometer reset button? Tips? Diagrams? Pics? I need to purchase odometer reset button, part number 1384775. will I need any other parts? It seems logical to have cluster panel / window cleaned and bulbs... Read more

My work in progress: 1989 Volvo 240DL was rough when I recently bought it. No radio at all, just a hole, which I've now filled with a Sony AM/FM CD player successfully! However, my cluster has a clock (working) where I'd like to see a tach. However, I'm open to the possibility of putting a tach in the space to the left of the radio. Suggestions on whether it'd be cheaper and easier to leave the clock as is & install aftermarket tach (52mm?) in circled spot in photo or if I am likely to... Read more

I had a small thread elsewhere on here, but Photobucket tanked it. Rather than try to fix that one, I'll start over here. I'm 12 years deep into a build that is taking a 1949 Willys Jeep and a 1987 Volvo 740 to end with a very street and dirt friendly rig. Almost every part of this has been hand built. The following will be a story through pictures, since I don't have... Read more

Hi, I spent some time this morning swapping my outer driver's door handle into the rear door on my 245 and the handle from the rear door forward. The driver's handle wasn't broken but it has lots of slop. I figured it was better to have a sloppy handle on the door tht is rarely opened. Apparently while fiddling around I knocked the rod loose in the rear door that connects (ultimately) to the lock knob. You guessed it, the door would not open. It tok me an hour to remove the door card from... Read more
