     I'M SELLING MY WIFES 1998 GREEN VOLVO XC AWD WAGON.  THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING ON 2 OF THE 5 CYLINDERS.  IT WILL START WITH ONLY THESE 2 RUNNING BUT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT HAPPY.  THE MECHANIC SAID THE COMPRESSION ON THESE 2 CYLINDERS IS FINE, I BELIEVE BOTH AT 119 lbs.  HIS INITIAL DIAGNOSIS INDICATED EITHER A WARPED HEAD, VALVE JOB, TIMING BELT, WATER PUMP IF THERE WERE NO LOWER ENGINE DAMAGE, OR A USED REPLACEMENT ENGINE WHICH HE LOCATED FOR $1200.00.  MILEAGE IS 154,500.  THE TIMING BELT HAD BEEN CHANGED AT 142,000 MILES.  EITHER WAY, IT WAS GOING TO BE TOO MUCH TO PUT INTO THE VEHICLE.

     SOMEONE REAR-ENDED THE VEHICLE AND SHE THOUGHT THERE WAS NO DAMAGE, BUT THE REAR BUMPER SAGS A BIT BUT IS SOLID.  YOU MAY NOT HAVE NOTICED THIS IN THE PHOTOS.  THE INTERIOR IS COMPLETE BUT IS VERY VERY DIRTY AND NEEDS DETAILED BADLY.

     REALLY A VERY PRETTY CAR.  LOTS AND LOTS OF GOOD PARTS.  IT WAS RAINING WHEN THE PHOTOS WERE TAKEN, BUT THE PAINT IS IN GOOD SHAPE.  WE HAVE MOVED SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND IT IS STILL AT OUR OLD HOUSE 'TIL THE HOUSE SELLS.  TITLE IS CLEAR AND WILL BE MAILED UPON SUCCESSFUL WINNING BID.  LOCAL PICKUP ONLY.  NO SHIPPING.  AS IS, WHERE IS.

     I'LL TRY TO ADD MORE INFO AS I THINK OF IT OR AS I ANSWER QUESTIONS.

Volvo's oldest model earns IIHS Top Safety Pick+ award [w/video]

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

Volvo ought to be tooting its horn over this one. The XC90, an SUV that has essentially been on sale for over 10 years, just captured a Top Safety Pick+ award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The TSP+ is a new title, reserved for cars that earn "Good" or "Acceptable" ratings on each IIHS crash test.
This is a difficult feat for a new car - Toyota's new Corolla infamously failed to net a Top Safety Pick+ earlier this year - largely because of the new small overlap front tests, which have left many automakers struggling. But Volvo, somehow, was able to conquer the tests with a car that predates the original iPhone by a few years. The XC90 earning a Top Safety Pick+ is like Betty White taking the gold in the decathlon. With Volvo in the midst of working on the XC90's replacement, we're curious to see just how well a more modern version does in crash testing. Take a look down below for the crash test video and a press release from IIHS.

Volvo confirms unnamed US model reveal for NY show

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Tucked into the press release for the "display debut" of the Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid at the New York Auto Show, Volvo snuck in a single line announcing that it will also be introducing a new model for the North American market. As much as we'd love to see the svelte V40 on American roads, we're pretty sure the automaker is looking to fill its US station wagon void with the V60.
The 2014 Volvo V60 is part of a comprehensive lineup update that was unveiled earlier this month in Geneva, and it would give Volvo dealers a conventional wagon (not including the XC70) for the first time since the V70 and V50 were killed off. We'll still be keeping our fingers crossed for the stylish V40 hatchback or the fuel-efficient V60 diesel hybrid, but we have to wait until next week to find out for sure.

Volvo and Ericsson to take Spotify on the road

Thu, 27 Dec 2012

Volvo is working to bring Spotify to its vehicles. Ericsson has announced it will provide its Connected Vehicle Cloud service to Volvo for future products, and Spotify streaming music is part of that service. Like Toyota Entune and other infotainment services, the Connected Vehicle Cloud will use the driver's smartphone as a modem to stream music and serve as a base for other applications, all of which will be controllable through the vehicle interface. Expect to see the service launch in 2014, though Ericsson stresses later generations will feature an embedded modem with its own SIM card that will piggyback off of the owner's phone data plan.
But that system won't show up in production vehicles until at least 2016. In the interim, Ericsson says it will continue to work with government agencies on its car-to-car communication efforts. That program could eventually help pave the way toward autonomous road trains capable of helping vehicles travel safely together while also reducing traffic congestion. Wired has a full break down of the Connected Vehicle Cloud strategy. You can read it here.
