Kevin C asked:


I’m looking to replace the armrests and a few other interior parts on a 1979 Volvo 242 DL, and was wondering if the armrests and other parts from a newer Volvo 240 (1985-93, somewhere in that range) would fit. They look to be pretty much the same part, but wanted a second opinion before I hop on eBay and start buying. Thanks!

Im about to buy a 2004 Volvo S40. It has 47,000 miles on it and is in VERY good condition. Here’s the downside… It has no warranty.. what are my chances that I won’t have any problems with it for a while, until i can afford to buy to extended warranty?

How much would replacing the struts in a rear drive Volvo run (ball park figure)?

What? asked:


A friend of mine has an old Volvo 940 that needs them replaced in the front and he would like to have an idea as to what the cost could be. He has the struts already and just needs someone to install them as it’s too big a job for him and it’s too cold out at this time of year for a shade tree mechanic such as he. It’s rear wheel drive and in very good condition.

Last time I took my Volvo S60 to an ARC car wash the headlight wipers were damaged. The person there said that there should be a clip to put around them to stop damage. But i think he’s talking nonsence.

I am looking for new rear suspensions.
What do I look for to get good suspensions? I don’t want really cheap nor really expensive ones.

Lee S asked:


Hello, I just bought a 95 Volvo 850 T5-R, and the Turn Signals, and flashers are not working. I have been trying to figure out if there is a relay that controls that, or if it is like the s70’s and goes though the hazzard switch?

Anywho any help/comments on this would be greats
Thanks!
