Default New to Volvo From Florida

My son just purchased an '01 V70 T-5 Wagon with a host of problems! I have been working on domestic vehicles for years, and now I'll be getting familiar with an import. I have a lot of knowledge on class 8 truck turbo diesel engines, so turbos don't scare me. With your help I'll progress up the Volvo learning curve.

Welcome to the forum. You'll probably want to read through the various posts on the V70, S70 and 850 forums as they share designs and have common problem areas. Some of our contributors are actually factory trained techs :-)

Thanks everyone! Issues identified already are:
Bad engine mounts
Rt side control arm bushings bad
Blower motor resistor module bad

I'm heading to Ft. Myers to replace the blower motor resistor module - gotta have A/C!

Welcome to VF Corker

You and your son ( ASL111) need to figure out who's going to post on the issues so we're not ending up with duplicate repair threads for the same issues.
