I have an 05 XC70 with 242k miles and thank God I haven't had any of these issues with my car. And you're incorrect about not trans dipstick. It's yellow tip and sits right below the upper mount. I think you just made this video to trash one the best built vehicles in the world....ridiculous.
OK so point by point:
1. I had a 2001 V70 it had an ATF dipstick. I have a 2005 XC70, it also has an ATF dipstick
1.1 The bad shifting was mostly on 2001-2004 cars as the software would put the car in neutral every time the speedo read ZERO. This wore out the solenoid. All P2 platforms from 2004 had this software updated in the factory. The solenoid can be replaced without a box dismount or disassembly. Solenoid costs about 150 USD
2. The DDM is prone to get wet, as its the same block where all your door buttons are. Its literally right bellow the buttons. Mine failed, but after cleaning and soldering back the corroded joints, works fine. In any case, a rebuild is about 100 bucks, and a new one is 300...
3. The ABS module has less than 1% failure rate on the forums... Yet you don't even talk about the PCV breather box and how that needs changing every 50k miles.
4. The upper engine mount is an expenditure item, just like your wipers or bushings. Its even written in the maintenance manual to check the mount and replace if required. Its like 3 bolts... and the mount is 60 bucks, come on now...
5. The bushings in the control arms ARE replaceable. You can press brand new bushings in the arm. They last 60k miles at least. And replace the ball joint also... Plenty of brands make these, from monroe, sachs and lemforder. The front and rear bushings are 30 bucks each, and the ball joint (OEM) is 50... in total its like 250 bucks for both sides... OR you can just buy BRAND NEW control arms with all the bushings in place FROM VOLVO for 180 bucks each... yeah...
Sorry but you have no clue about this car.
XC70’s have a dipstick by the lower right radiator hose for the transmission.
Yup. It's yellow tipped.
My 04 Volvo xc70 doesn't
@@kathleenconner i have 2004 Volvo xc70 and it has a transmission dipstick, its there by the lower right radiator hose , a yellow dipstick, hard to get to it.
ABS module isn’t that bad. Just remove it (get te screws out from the bottom, so you don’t have to drain the brake fluid) cut it open and check solder joints with a magnifying glass. You wil see some cracks; solder them again and you are good to go. Cost: couple of hours of your time👍
You are incredible! I have an 04 XC70 I got very cheap from an older owner but I knew since I saved on the purchase I would be spending on some worthwhile repairs since I plan on keeping the wagon a long time. I've replaced the Motor Mounts, Control Arms + Bushings, Shocks and Coils full Sachs Suspension Kit. Also installed new front + rear sway bars and the difference in handling from before is amazing. I haven't experienced any issues with the transmission because it was worked on previously. Luckily the car was pretty easily driven / garage kept so I dont have any of the ABS or Door locking issues mentioned. Just turned 188K this week!
I’m going through the same process right now with my V70, nice to hear I’m not the only one.
It has a dip stick for the transmission is read or yellow and is over the transmission.
Abs is not only the module sometimes is the abs sensor that is dirty 8 mm socket clean it up and done.
Control arm is a weak point in the p2 volvo, still not complex to do in your driveway, also replace the ball join at same time.. Ball joins need to be set, there is a great tool for it expensive but it makes the job really easy.
Gasket in the cooling lines in the turbo is a really involve job if you have the awd version... most of the time need to drop down the front awd system to get access to the turbo.
Last week point is halex system.. do the oil changes on it to save it.. if is down .. you can still remove the axel and convert it and use the front transmission.
I have 3 volvos p2 in the pass. XC70, S60
convert the Halex system into what?
Those cars are tanks.
Very reliable.
And are actually BUILT in SWEDEN......well mine was :)
#6 to your list is the PCV system (not very expensive parts, but a whole lot of labor)
#7 the upper struts mounts
#8 VVT solenoid
#9 throttle body (it's fly by wire and sometimes the TPS inside fails)
#10 electric/electronics
There, now the list is more complete. :)
This
Wait, there’s more
Crank but no start? That could be at 5 different things. Thanks Ford.
x2 for This! P2s are Tanks but they are still needy eurotrash at the same time.
We have a 2003 XC70 with 450,000 kilometres and it’s been pretty great. It does have some issues, the AWD doesn’t work, sunroof doesn’t work, and there is a hard shift when going into reverse. We noticed a small oil leak from the turbocharger but with the amount of mileage on it we aren’t shocked. I’d still drive it anywhere.
Thank you. Great videos!
very good video. thanks.
01-03 only ones really with hard shifting problem. Also there is a dipstick for the transmission on all P2 chassis xc70's. Door locks are rare to see go bad on P2 cars same with abs module more common to fail on older p80 chassis cars.
Not sure which year you are featuring in this. The 01-04 we’re problematic because they had the GM transmission. 05-07 to had the aisin warner transmission. Xemodex rebuilds ABS and DIM modules. My 06 XC70 has a tune on it from Hilton Tuning which removes the torque limiter and it’s a much happier car at 208K.
this is the best video
I would add brittle plastics, like 1:08 where the little lock bezel has gone missing. There are lots of little interior trim bits that get brittle and break. They're hard to replace because all the ones at the junkyard are broken too. This also extends to brittle degraded wiring loom or electric plugs. I still rather like my V70 though.
Aka plastic cancer. My ‘02 is now a Frankenstein with loads of ‘07 in her. Was originally cream now cream and grey haha.
I've got one of those, except it's RHD, and unless the US ones have a different transmission, there's a little yellow tipped dipstick for the transmission on the front under the airbox.
Also, when the doors are locked on mine the little popup stick sits flush with the door trim. Is that a US difference too?
It's hard to locate first time. If you have big hands doesn't help. I can only get one finger to flip the clip then pull the tran dip stick. Make sure clip catches when you put dip back in.
Hi have a 2002 Volvo money pit and I have experienced and am enduring all of these problems.
Good info. Thanks Sue!
Very helpful. Well done Video. Thank you!!
Thanks
+Hot Rod 1949 Thanks for the feedback!
Vent lines from purge control solenoid valve to intake manifold & intake tube by the turbo fall apart.
I drive a late 2004 Facelift 2.4 D5 163 6sp manual and nearly done 219,000 miles, she's still going strong and never let me down, has impeccable service and maintenance history. I didn't want a problematic as I've read some right horror stories on them seizing up if not serviced. Don't get me wrong, their not all like it I know and the manuals aren't w/o their faults, but until I start losing my clutch control, I'm more than happy to change gear myself instead of a computer doing it :)
Do you have a clip on 2010 xc70 issues?
Grazie!!!
Hi, I have Volvo 2001 V70 cross country turbo 2.4 lt, engine cranks but not start I think is the crankshaft position sensor what do you think about, thank you.
Yes I have a service engine soon light on on my gmc envoy
Took me awhile to find it myself. Then I came across a YT video showed me where it was located. Knowing where it is still doesn't make it easier to check the fluid.
Please I am ready to buy one of this xc70. The manual and the automatic which one is good, please help me to buy the best one
Thanks 😊 I appreciate the video 📹
Interesting, the few P2 XC70s I have worked have a distinct down below the air box ducting
Super your explain thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
There IS a transmission dipstick on my 04. it's just hidden down by the radiator. not real obvious. Also the motor on the ABS module on mine is shot. there is a metal plate over one of the mounting screws but you can drill a hole to access it. then you can swap out the motor (if you can find it) insterad of the whole ABS unit.
The problem I have with my cross country is that in the winter it starts with one turn of the key. In the summer I have to turn the key about five times for it to start, can someone tell me what's the problem?
Also the security alarm battery corroding disabling the moon roof and giving you an alarm system needs servicing fault. Just disconnect the alarm siren and boom, my moon roof worked !
I tried removing the fuse for the 'alarm siren', and got that fault. Other makes have "disable alarm" menu items, why not Volvo?
Wonderful job 😌👍
I'd like to suggest an episode about the very common issue with 2000-2006 Suzuki xl-7 which is " Timing Chain Tensioner " and how to fix it.
Thank you so very much 🙏🙏🙏🙏😌
it has a transmission dipstick, its there by the lower right radiator hose , a yellow dipstick, hard to get to it.
Hey there! How about xc 70 low beam headlights not working, even though the bulbs are good.
+@fastlanecruiser We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
persona muy profesional, gracias
This suv is a good car?
They do have a trans dipstick. The XC70 are built like tanks and very reliable. Ford ran a magazine ad that the 2002 XC70 didn't have a fatality that year❤
Vivo en España, tengo un v70 normal 170cv automático y el ABS es un problema constante, las puertas son una feria, los km no corren.😩🥴
That's funny. My 2004 XC 70 has a transmission dip-stick. I'm somewhat suspicious of this person's expertise.
LOL you forgot the dreaded electrical gremlins. My 2002 xc70s turn signals and hazard outside lights stopped working. Put in refurbished DIM, CEM. New turn signal stalk, hazard switch, bulbs with sockets. No rodent damage. Not even volvo can tell me why they don't work. The only thing I didn't replace was the SWM. maybe?
they are vacum mounts not hydraulic
The Aisin AW-50/51 transmission has a dipstick under the airbox. No it isn't a sealed system.
Have 2002 just changed tcm and pay 200 to programmed t
+Ricardo Lopez Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
My 03 xc70 has a trans dip stick?lol
Excellent cars, the biggest disappointment now is the lack of availability of some parts, from Volvo or even decent alternatives. Also the electronics modules are ridiculously expensive, so going for a repaired one is far more economical. Look after the engine with oil and belt changes, the engines and transmission are much happier and more durable the auto box. The Aisin auto gearboxes are excellent and if they do have issues are cured by a good specialist.
Это не проблемы, у всего есть срок службы, и надо своевременно обслуживать автомобиль.
Hey I have a 2013 passat and the problem is something is draining my battery down so I had a chk done and it says power train what this please help
Now...I see why this stuff is so cheap on used car mkt....I don't wanna deal with any trans issues
Honestly?……. Geez, we are talking about a car that is 20 years old! Take any other make or model, ie: American or Japanese or even German, they wouldn’t even last this long. They couldn’t even make it to the scrap yard on their own power. Volvos are TANKS!
Actually it's 2001-2006. 2007 is third generation. I owned a 2001 XC70 and a 2007 XC70.
on the transmission she is not correct. I own a 2006 XC70 and my car had a transmission dipstick.
Pretty much, this is a trash-talking session to promote this A1 Auto RUclips channel. Except for the door lock actuators, everything else can be considered “standard maintenance.” These things are only annoying when it comes time to pay the Volvo “stealership.”
200 mph
This person, doesn't really have experience with the P2 platform, and it shows.
and they say Volvo's don't rust 🤣🤣🤣🤣
No#1 it's mostly renault
Your explanation is fantastic thank you🙏🙏🙏🙏
I gotta say you're really attractive lol
