My thermostat housing I leaking from the gaskets but not much honestly, there is no check engine light. I think I should still replace it.

How did you end up getting the bolt out on the chain

Good video Jamie. It's a good thing that you also pulled the rear rotors and discovered the shoe lining delaminated. As Seagrams noted, this is a fairly common issue. I am also a FCP customer. they have a great warranty and excellent customer service. I hope you get way more subscribers. You are earning it! Get well soon!

Glad you'll be staying with us for longer. I had the exact same issue with the drum brake shoes delaminating. Couldn't reverse out of the parking lot one day and couldn't figure out why. The shoes had wedge themselves against the rotor. I read online that this is a somewhat common issue, and super dangerous cause it could lockup your wheels if it delaminates while you are driving. Good thing you found it out as the car was coming apart..

Nice one again Jamie, i hope you're recovering well. Liked the video. And like you said, it's always better to perform your own repairs. It's a lot cheaper and practice makes perfect. Just one suggestion or comment about your Privacy details. In the video all your details about your name, home address, telephone number and your e-mail address are visible on the invoice and there for everyone to see.

Such a pitiful bad sad lame design on these Volvos

where did you get your VIDA system? Link?

The genuine volvo transmission mount reduces the NVH best😊

Any cylinder head available out there 😢

Nice video

Just did my top mount today, what a huge difference in vibration.

Nice one Jamie..! Kudos on the tinfoil head ;-) Polyurethane bushings aren't my forte. It rattles and ultimately grind your teeth. So i'll stick to the plain old rubber and decline on the "performance"bit. Keep on making these video's. They're informative and fun to watch. Cheers from The Netherlands

this guy might be on to something...

I really appreciated the video. Please keep going with the content, I enjoy that you show us the highs and lows of the repairs you are doing. It ends up being very intuitive and also gives me confidence to work on my 2009 XC70 and also my daughters 2006 XC70.

your camera movement is too fast,so do your explaination

check your rubber brake line going to your calipers. I can see they are starting to rubber is starting to crack near the fitting.

Well done, Jamie! I have a vibration that I can't pin down. I have changed the plugs, coils, wires to the coils, cleaned the TB, etc. and it may be pointing to the two mounts I haven't changed. The two fluid filled round ones. They're on my list of to-do. I bought a Vida Dice but haven't got it working yet to do a deep scan for other issues...always fun working on the Volvos! Take care! I used Moog strut links and no problem so far. Plus, they have grease nipples!

Nice work

17:50 brother your brake hose is on its last legs!!

Ty

👍

Nice! Headlight is plug and play?

Jamie, anywhere you remove the original oticker style hose clamps, replace them with the original style clamps. As you know by now, there are many of them including the PCV system. They will not come loose and won't dig into the hose. You will need to buy 2 tools for the pinching. One for straight shots and the other for side pinching. FCP has all of this but Amazon has what you need for quite a bit less $$. And yes, the Amazon clamps are stainless steel. I am sure you remember the hose on top of the cylinder head when you replaced the PCV. That worm clamp can eventually dig into the wires for the coil that interferes with it. Volvo engineers decided to use this style clamp for good reason.

I have one already torn down, but I wasn't sure how to clean the return channel. Thank you!

did you consider using riv-nuts in the places where the rivets were? Even though I hate riv-nuts with a passion, this looks like the best spot for them to be used. I know they come in different sizes. Looks like the smallest would require a 6mm hole and it uses a M4 thread pitch. I could be wrong, but definitely the right place for a riv-nut...

I just solved this in my Tacoma with maybe a similar system. It was the head exchanger valve on the other side of the firewall.

This wasn't boring at all. In fact, I found this interesting. You have the patience of a saint! I am in question of the CEM itself. In regard to the massive number of wires, my guess is that there are so many communications simultaneously going on including all the safety built in features, playing a role in this. Welcome to the world of Canbus! So, Jamie, what is the next surgery? In my opinion, I think a thorough inspection of the CEM is going in the right direction. I hope that isn't the gremlin but if it is the problem, at least you are familiar with Xemodex. Since you are an expert at door card removal, I have 2 tips! Replace the blue plastic slider shoes in the window tracks and lubricate the vertical window guides with Krytox PTFE GPL206. This lube will make your windows slide up and down like new. And it lasts very long without attracting any contaminates. Looking forward to the next episode of Jamie Cars!

To make your struggle easier with the banjo bolt and the 10mm lower IM bolt, remove the alternator. It's easy to remove when the fan assembly is out. That also makes an opportunity to replace the external voltage regulator on the alternator. Also, when all that stuff is out of your way, put in a new oil pressure sensor. They all leak at some point.

Thanks for the detailed video. 2007 V70 2.5T living in SW Florida with a lot of crazy drivers on the road. Interested in mounting dashcams for protection against insurance fraud or worse. I'm very new to car modifications, as my beloved V70 is only my 2nd car. I'm pretty handy but if this install were rated 1-10, 10 being most complex, what would you rate it?

Jimmy. Do you have the link for that impact socket? I am doing it the same as you soon.

Where did you get that yellow elk logo for the front grill looks neat. Also nice R looks great

I like the tube repair.

How did you get the left bolt on the PCV box? It’s blocked by that metal frame piece or something

Thanks for the video. this is super helpful. I'm about to do this on my own van. thanks for the video from a "less" experienced viewpoint. Any new thoughts for someone attempting this repair? Did you check the valves for leaks?

why do you video creators always insist viewers sit through you recounting your life story???

Nice video. For streaming i was buying Blue Music unit,. It's a CD emulator and it works fine. You don't need to use the cassette player. ;)

If the P0171 would come back - there is only one safe way to find the air leak: smoke/vapour detection. Ask an independent service near you if they have a machine that can blow "fog" (oil vapour) into the sealed air intake system. Sometimes it takes more than 30 minutes until it comes somewhere near the fuel tank or under the car or hidden near the firewall out of a micro-crack. That's where the engine is sucking un-metered air, that's causing the +15% fuel trim, that trips the engine lean code.

I did the do88 intercooler and AC condenser. My original condenser just had too many bent fins. I live in Las Vegas where ambient temps are 100+. With the AC on and summer heat, the intake temps were 130-150F so no performance upgrade was felt since it was still getting cooked.

Hi. My Volvo has Ecm 3410 code what's mean?

For Christ's sake, if you're going to remove or tighten either a power steering line or brake lines, please use a flare nut wrench. Horrible Freight has either the Pittsburgh or Quinn 5-piece set. Me personally, I used a Snap-on long T40 TORX bit socket. Part #FTXL40E. It's about $45.00 though.

No abuse from me, just appreciation for sharing your experiences as you keep your Previa on the road. I'm up above 340,000 mi on my naturally-aspirated Previa, but haven't done my heater hoses yet. When I do, I will keep your experiences in mind. Thank you!

One thing Intercooler will do is basically eliminate heat soak even on the hottest days. May improve the performance slightly. I did the same upgrade on my P3 S60T6 and on hot days it stopped losing power completely as well as improved spool up. Aircon isn't as efficient though, since it's now completely covered by the new big IC. Aluminium radiator will do the job well. If you didn't clean THAT condenser I'd be yelling at the screen lol

Previas are great. My silver 1991 Previa is still on the road at 343,000 mi. Good for you that yours is still on its original engine and transmission. I had to put a "new" engine in mine around 320,000 mi and am just about to put in a "new" transmission in. Keep up the good work and have fun!

Good practice

I'm doing this job on my 2006 V70. OEM here too. Now I'm going to be extra careful replacing those o-rings. What I don't get is that the oem o-rings I bought come in a set of 2 for each injector. Where does the other one go? Nice to see it all apart like you have it here. Funny that we have to cut a notch out of the new gasket! Also nice to see the back of the engine opened up. I'm doing all the cam seals so I'll be in there soon. Watching other videos, yeah that banjo bolt looks to be a bi*ch, but seeing it here all open really helps me frame what's going on. Thanks for sharing all this. Nice job.

I’m glad to see this job is doable for the average Joe. I replaced the neglected 200k engine in my Previa with a low miles JDM engine years ago. Prior owner thought running straight water in the cooling system was a good idea 🤦‍♂️

On a side note. Finding cracked/worn seals is to be expected at high mileage. You can replace them as you go along since most will still operate. But unfortunately when you move a part with worn seals/rings, they will fall apart when removing. That's universal in all cars.

Thank you for the video and your want to create this content. I found it very helpful as I'm about to tackle the breather system in my S60R. It's a love and passion. But it's also fun to self diagnose. I'm looking forward to updating my breather system. Also thanks for bringing up the spacer for the throttle body.

I find it so fun how you drive with a OBD2 reader! Have you ever tried a smoke machine???
