I need help finding some parts for my 1998 S70 2.4L 20valve.

1) There is a black surrounding around all of my wheels, it keeps dirt from going to the engine and hides the ugly cables and such, i am missing this plastic part on the front right of my car. What's it called and where can i order it?

2) On the same area, there is a little grey thing around the edge of the car's skirt near the front that is missing, this is also plastic and is for keeping mud from going to the bottom of the car. What's it called and where can i order it?

3) Now, this parts tricky, on my front left wheel, behind it (towards the motor) there is a little **** that hooks together and holds the tire from going too far down when u jack the car up, mine popped out and needs to be replaced. The whole shaft (app. 12' long) that goes vertically needs to be replaced and 1 of the ***** if hooks into (the one that stays towards the engine more) needs to be replaced. What are they called and where can i order them?

On a side note, i would like to know what the buttons S - E - W do, they are located right behind the shifter. Currently, E is pushed down, and one of em needs to be own at all times.

I will probably eventually have more questions, but for now, that's it, thank you.

 

1. Should be the inner fender lining. (usually dealer)

2.Maybe the mudflap?

3. I think you are talking about the sway bar link.

thanks for the help, im assuming the mudflap can also be purchased at the dealers.

 

E = Economy

S = Sport

W = Winter

 

If you can snap a few pictures, it would be more helpful. The first does sound like the lining as Tech has stated...the other...sorry, a picture would help.

S70driver also provided the explanation of the buttons on the transmission. Typically i use the S mode for my normal driving (which means letting my turbo do the talking) but when there isnt a lot of traffic i use E, and set the cruise control. Here is where i get up to 29 or 30 MPG on the highway.

W, i used once up in the mountains in the snow.

 

Before you hit the dealer for parts, why not visit local junk yards? You never know, they may have the parts you need at a fraction of the dealer's price. If you decide to dothis, make sure to "abuse" some cars there as a stress buster[8D]. I once removed a shifter for a Ford F-350 and had to destroy (or I should say "forced it with style") some components just to get it out from a junked Ford. Do this when nobody is around[8D].

Anyway, good luck finding the parts. Or, you could call FCP Groton of Connecticut for the availability of parts: http://www.fcpgroton.com/volvo.htm#c70

Good day!
