Congratulations on your new purchase! It's hard to diagnose but if the humming is coming from the engine and sounds like an electrical buzz it could be the throttle body. This can be normal. As far as maintenance I would recommend getting a good scanner which can read specific Volvo codes. I believe the least expensive way to get into that is the autel ap200. It reads standard obd codes plus I believe it includes one specific make add on. For maintenance I guess I would start with safety and check the quality of the brake fluid. Purchase some test strips and flush if necessary. An often missed item is the interior cabin filter and of course oil change air filter and plugs. Another route would be to get a Carfax or similar report. Sometimes they can provide maintenance records which could give you clues. Wish you the best of luck!

Hello! Thanks for reaching out. I have not had to replace that part. However, it seems pretty straightforward. Loosen the two Phillips screws and remove the connector. Installation is the opposite of removal.

@@jasonochoada3083 thanks this helps a lot. I needed this video too saved me some money forsure appreciate it!

Yes, unfortunately the reel can be a bit fragile. With some careful work it can be straitened 👍

Thanks for reaching out. So you mean they don't move when you have all 4 corners on jack stands and put it into drive? If that is the case my car behaves the same way.

I tried it on the wet floor and the snow and only the front wheels spin! I dont know what happend !! New pump, haldex clutch its ok and DEM no faults

I see .... Hmmm, any chance when you changed the fluid the fluid without the AOC friction modifier was used?

What is the aoc friction?

The haldex fluid has a special modifier added for the active on demand coupling (AOC) this additive allows the wet clutches to grip each other to transmit power. The normal Volvo gear oil does not have this. www.fcpeuro.com/products/volvo-aoc-haldex-gear-oil-1-liter-31325136

Hello! My initial thought was that the hub needed to be adjusted. But after filling with grease the play was no longer there. I checked again after an 7 hr trip each way and the hub was still without play. So my working hypothesis is that the hub / bearing assembly didn't have enough grease. Hope this helps!

@@jasonochoada3083 Thanks I appreciate it

Maybe there is a small detail that I forgot to convey? There is a metal piece which slides through the shaft and that is what the socket grips. Maybe the design was changed so a different socket size is required. Regarding the belt it's actually better if the belt is removed because then your drill does not need to drive the motor which is hard on the belt / motor / and drill. If you didn't have a belt inside or it broke then the mower won't work, the motor can't turn the blades. If it worked fine then there is a chance you are trying to work on the non drive side. Hope this works!

Hello! You'll need a T30 bit. It looks like a ⭐ 👍

Very glad you found it useful!

Thanks for reaching out! I am not planning on selling the mower. I still use it every week enjoying with my Toro. The size and weight make it much better in a few spots.

Very happy you found it useful 👍

Yes you are correct. The best way is to remove the caliper and rotor and measure the rotor with a micrometer. Also to measure the pads while removed. For me practically I change the pads and rotors at the same time regardless.

Thanks!

You are most welcome! Glad you found it useful!

Glad you found it useful!

Great question! From everything I can tell, unfortunately they may have been discontinued.

Agreed! I would like to purchase another. It appears that there are some other companies selling similar designs. Looks like Scotts and Yard force. Can't verify personally though. Good luck!

@@jasonochoada3083 I've given up and just going to make my own Fiskars batter powered lol

@@chriswebbtech very cool!

Hi Mark thanks for the tip and apologies for wasting your time!

Apologies yes it was very tight quarters and only using a cell phone. If you have specific questions I'd be happy to help 👍

Thanks! Glad you found it useful. Currently I am using a Toro flex for the bulk of the cutting and have relegated the SJ to small areas and touch up work. I'm pretty sure others have done rear roller mods though!

Hi Alex, I backlapped quite often so I would leave the bed knife in place. Then after backlapping I would adjust the bedknife until it cut paper. The grit in the sharpening compound will fill any gaps so I don't think you want the bedknife too tight. Hope this helps!

Hi Ryan, I don't see any difference in color or growth. The improvement comes in the spring with less fungus and winter dye off. Thanks!

Hi Gerald sorry for the extremely delayed response. The car is a 2016. In that year there were some made with the inline 5 and some with the 2.0 inline 4. If you have the inline 5 with the filter up top I use a 36mm socket adapter to 3/8 and a swivel and extension.

@@jasonochoada3083 awesome thanks! I was a little confused because I thought the filter was on the bottom which is what the dealership told me but I did locate it and you’re right i used the 36mm. Thanks for the help with this video!

Great ideas!

That's awesome! Thanks

Sorry for the delay! Hope you were able to solve your issues. Fouled plug or dirty carb would be the first places I would check. Good luck!

@@jasonochoada3083 thank you for your thoughts. I bought a new carburetor and it’s running great. 😊

If you are having issues with EGR that is a different system relating to burning oil or gasoline vapors from the oil. My issue was the system which pulls vapors from the charcoal canister which catches fuel vapor from the fuel tank/ system. Hope this helps!

Apologies, I haven't had any issues with my egr system. I change the oil at 50% use to avoid any varnish or residue build up. Hope you were able to solve your issues!

2016 with the 2.5L inline 5

Thanks! It's time to do this service again so I'll definitely take a look at this!

@@jasonochoada3083 Did you remove it? Any pictures or part numbers for any possible gaskets?

That's a bummer. Were you able to get a replacement motor? They appeared to have discontinued the mower.

Hope you were able to get the belt on. When I reinstalled the belt I just got the edge started and then walked it on. Hopefully they didn't send you the incorrect part!

Hi Rob, from the look of this link they are currently out of stock. I've seen this happen quite often. I found the email notification does work or has in the past anyway. snowjoe.com/products/sun-joe-24v-crlm15-ct-24-volt-ion-cordless-push-reel-mower-tool-only-rear-collection-bag

@@jasonochoada3083 Thanks I don’t want a manual real mower I don’t wanna spend a fortune on a expensive one there’s three that I am looking at the sun Joe, wild edge which has the same colors like a knock off and the cordless Scott’s real mower trying to get reviews to get the best one

And there’s another one by Earthwise so there’s actually four battery real motors that are from the $200-$300 range I wish there was a better quality one for around 800 but I haven’t found one yet anything that’s quality is in the thousands I don’t wanna spend that right now they had a manual one by Hudson which has a cam on it so you don’t have to walk That fast it spins very fast but no electric no motor and it’s 21:00

Yup, the link I attached is the Sunjoe 24v cordless. I looked at your three options and I'm willing to bet they are all coming out of the same factory. Can't speak for the other two but I had a good experience with Sunjoe when my unit was defective. No questions exchange or refund. They paid shipping both ways and I didn't have to return the defective one until I got the replacement. The downside is they can barely keep them in stock. Hope you are able to find the best mower for you 👍

Agreed. These mowers work well but the blades are prone to be damaged if debris is in the yard such as mulch/sticks etc...

Hi Syd! Things are going well. Not much new to report which is why there isn't any current content. Yes I've bent my reel and I did make a video on how I straightened it back out. It's a bit tedious but possible 👍👍.ruclips.net/video/ICNG4fSXlh8/видео.html

Thanks for the interest 👍👍 I have other videos which show use, maintenance and modification of this economical mower.👍👍

Hello! Thanks for the interest and comment. Unfortunately, to sharpen the reel needs to run in the opposite direction from regular operation. If it's run with abrasive as normal it would dull the reel instead of sharpening it.👍

Hi Jeffery Thanks for the kind words. Almost did that with the video tutorial and parts list in the instructions I'm not sure there would be much demand.

Hello! Thanks for the great question. Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to that one. Sunjoe's customer service is pretty good so I bet they might be able to answer that one.👍

Hello! Thanks for the interest and comments. I did consider that option but decided to go a different route for two reasons. First, I couldn't find a roller that was easily accessible that fit the required width. The second reason is that the mower in this case is very lightweight. I was worried on thick grass the mower would float and not cut as low as otherwise possible. Hope this helps 👍

What you’ve created is more akin to a grooved roller than a flat roller and that produces a better cut…kuddos.

@@robstealey1856 Thanks! I actually targeted a more grooved design. Because the mower is so light I was worried about it floating on the dense grass.👍👍👍👍

Hi Troy! Thanks for the interest! Yes I would definitely purchase again. For me it led to adding another mower. I use a toro greensmaster for the large areas and the sun joe for edges etc. I have an 8k+ yard and it was quite a bit of work especially in 100+ humid heat. But I am very happy with the mower. You just need to make sure the yard is free of sticks mulch etc. Can you clarify what you mean in regards to the reel modification?

@@jasonochoada3083 the roller mod you added to sun joe? To help scalp marks

Hi Troy,. All the links to materials I used are below in the description of the video 👍

@@jasonochoada3083 what made you decide to pull the trigger on a professional gas reel mower?

It's as simple as speed and time in 100+ heat 😂. I wanted my time back instead of mowing 8k+ 2-3 times a week with the Sunjoe. It's a bit less now because I use a growth regulator now also.

Unfortunately I have not had to address that issue. I have filed out nicks in the bed knife with a file. Hope you were able to address your issues!

Hi Syd, thanks for the interest. Unfortunately, in order to do the backlapping properly the reel has to run backwards. I guess it could be possible to reverse the leads on the motor and run it backwards but I didn't investigate that option. It's also an advantage to have the ability to adjust the speed if necessary which is why I chose to use a drill.

With the hassle of removing the wheels and everything. I was wondering if just putting gringing compound and run the motor will still sharpen the reel

Yeah it's some work but running the motor in as normal with compound would definitely dull the blade.

Bummer it happened but glad I could be of help 👍

Hello Chris! Thanks for the interest. Yes I had the same issue and did a video on that issue. What happens is one of the blades gets bent. It is possible to straighten it out with some simple tools and patience. Hope this helps! Jason

Hello, I think the strategy for a reel vs a rotary is quite different. You really can't get away using a reel once a week unless you are using a growth regulator. You really shouldn't be cutting more than 1/4 inch with a reel in my opinion. I think many of the issues you mentioned are from not cutting often enough. With a rotary there is much more flexibility 👍

Hello! I certainly would but.im this case my fault for hitting debris in my yard. Not a manufacturing defect 👍👍

I think I did this on my other video where I built the roller. Links to materials were in that description. Good luck!

🤣🤣🤣 Yes that was a bit of an ordeal to correct hahahaha
