Asking for pictures of koni oranges?

Nothing today, but put in a new PCV kit and PNP switch last week. Now I just need to wash the poor girl!

[IPD-PaulK]

Same, my cars are doused in pollen. Need some spring cleaning for sure!

Good afternoon all, I have a 1998 volvo v70xc that has had a reverse gear that's been slipping for the past 10 years i just had to put it in the shop a few days ago to have the transmission completely rebuilt.because the forward gears started slipping. i am thinking about putting a stand alone transmission cooler on it. is this a good idea for longevity? i know they can be expensive though.

[IPD-PaulK]

If you're getting a fresh start on that transmission I don't see why not! I have my 99 V70 GLT in the shop right now for basically the same thing...I'm looking at either a rebuild or full replacement. Lots of slipping in first gear and no communication with the TCM. I hope this solves your troubles!

The transmission will last quite a bit longer with a cooler and regular fluid changes

Oh cool. Same, just installed 4 Koni Reds that I got for my birthday and I love them (FYI for those interested, Koni currently has a 20% off sale on their dampers). I also snagged a set of year appropriate R engines covers off ebay. Other very recent work includes wash+wax, polyurethane bushings for the front sway bar, new air filter, and then some.

Same deal, got the reds because of the sale. Love them so far.

Bought my 1999 V70R from a friend (well yesterday) and trailered it down from Lexington Kentucky to Asheville North Carolina. Needs some TLC, but I already love it. Put a new battery in and ordered some stage 0 stuff. Cannot seem to get the images uploaded. Here is a link: https://imgur.com/a/Jq2Y3mJ

Looks good!

Not so much today but over the course of all this quarantine stuff I finally got Around to changing my dash around a bit. I apologize for the crappy picture but my 99’ V70 Base model came with the usual plastic with a few lucky picks at the local pick and pull and this is the result. A Base model with some “trick” options, including my trick headliner 🙄👎🏼 Also, headrests removed for better airflow to the back. Vegas heat is no joke.

[fri2k11]

I love it! Questions, where did you get that Double DIN dash kit? I have looked everywhere and cannot find one for some reason.

[Stu-man64]

fri2k11 All you’re seeing is a generic “X” size screen face plate. As far as I’ve found no such mounting kit unfortunately. What I have done is take a hand file to the original head unit rails (car side) a little on each side until the new head unit fit REAL snug in the middle of the rails “floating”. Being held in by friction it needs to be a tight fit. Then I trimmed the generic face plate which came like 2 inches to big on each side. I trimmed it so I it recessed snug into the factory spot. Take your time and I’m have no issues. Feel free to use a piece of foam or some sort of spacer underneath the headunit it you’re worried about a loose fit on the sides.The faceplate will keep it centered.

Went to the junkyard and got a replacement rear view mirror and found some child seat anchors. Mine didn't come with them, and I have four kiddos. I plan getting a third row seat when I can find one at the junkyard too so I can fit them all.

[98V70R]

I recently got a third row seat on eBay and was able to put it in this weekend. The seats don't match mine, but I transferred them and their hardware to my existing floor boards so I could keep my carpet. Ignore the messy garage in the background, ha ha!

[Mr Winkey]

Put fuel in it and drove it

[98V70R]

I got in a couple boxes full of goodies from IPD, so I'll have a few things to do in the coming weeks.

[Swedespeed96]

Put a new set of front tires on. BFG G-force comp2 A/S. Great tires my second set

[fri2k11]

Changed out the oil pan o-rings, removed the headliner to repair sagging cloth, changed the oil / filter, put new spark plugs in, changed fuel filter, changed fuel injector o-rings, changed headlight wipers, and took off front bumper to make some repairs.
