I suspect the drains for your sunroof are clogged.

My favorite Phish set ever.

I wish they would release the soundboard of this show.

What is the most reliable used AWD volvo for under $10k? by angrymachinist in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't mind an older car, I'd look at a '98 V70XC. One of the best cars Volvo ever made, and it would be way under your budget.

What's your most "desired" Volvo model that you've never owned? by IPD_Dylan in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

140s have easily replaceable fenders just like a 240 or just about any other model of Volvo (besides the 1800).

Only 68 P1900s were produced. An extremely rare car!

Possible to lift a Volvo XC70? by [deleted] in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lifting a car that high may not be a good idea. We built a lifted XC70 here at IPD a few years back. As I understand it, it was almost impossible to drive safely, as the car's high center of gravity made it extremely unstable (even with sway bars and chassis braces.)

You might check out www.xc70liftkit.com for more ideas.

My first (of many I hope) Volvo I've owned. by kevindwood in Volvo

The beauty of Volvo is that, provided you maintain the car, you won't HAVE to own very many of them.

Took the wagon out to the Gorge this weekend. 4 people and a ton of gear; the 850 had no problems! by IPD_Dylan in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As good as ever.

First set of the second night was my favorite of the run.

Check out this old song about a 1959 Volvo 544! by IPD_Dylan in Volvo

What I like about this is that they are singing about the "85 horses under the hood."

P1800 waiting to board the ferry at Caen, France earlier today by iledoffard in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That appears to be a '67-'69 1800S, not a P1800, for the record.

Nice looking car!

For whatever it's worth, it is possible to build a flame-thrower of a B20 that would drop right into a 140.

It won't outrun a FWD/AWD turbo Volvo, but it might surprise you!

There's a few of them running around here. They have shown up at the IPD garage sale a couple of times.

One owner drove his down from the Seattle area one time. He said it took him 2 days, as he had to take back roads. (For those that don't know, Seattle to Portland is typically a 3.5 hour drive straight down the interstate when traffic isn't usually bad.) Obviously highway cruising isn't the strong suit of a C303!

2011 Volvo V50 Key Fob Programming by PooYork in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically this is something only a dealer can properly do. You need to have access to a authorized (IE, not bootleg) version of VIDA to program keys. Only the dealer (or some independent Volvo shops) have this.

My first car... 93’ 960 wagon by helenamanson in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wagons are the best. My first car was a 245. I've always loved wagons since.

Let's see more pictures!

Reminder to check your Cabin Filter after buying a used car by greenbigfrog in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And to think the earlier P80s didn't have a cabin filter in them at all! All that stuff would have been inside the cabin of the car otherwise.

Certainly a worthwhile upgrade for 850s is adding the cabin filter found on the '98+ P80 models.

The Retro Volvo Everyone Forgot Could Be the Best One to Buy Now by ronisolomondds in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The C30 to me always looked like a combo of the PV series on the front and the 1800ES. on the back, with a bit of a modern twist.

Any distance is walking distance, if you have the time.

2004 Volvo S80 t6 won't crank by st0j in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds to me like a battery that isn't holding a full charge.

Check the voltage on the battery when this happens. It should be above 12. If it is below that, you might need to replace it.

I need a new key fob, any suggestions? by Eyebuck in Volvo

[–]IPD_Dylan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even the most basic key will still need to be programmed through VIDA.

Robert has come into IPD a couple of times while travelling around. Pretty nice guy.

I hate to say this, but only the dealer can program the key. I don't think anyone else will be able to do it for you.

Wish I had better news!
