Default New Volvo Owner!

Hey all,
I just bought my first Volvo, a 2002 XC70 in near-perfect condition. It is such a fun car to drive, man that 5 cyl turbo really kicks! Anyway just wanted to introduce myself, I have a few tech questions that I'll post later.

Hey Laura, before you pay for a repair, contact Volvo US. there was a recall in 08 on this model, due to the fuel pump cracking and leaking. I just had mine replaced at no charge, but it has to be done through a dealership.

A mechanic told me that he believed the leak is from a tube or a seal. Laura
