2007 XC70 R/R Front Passenger Door, back hatch door V70-XC70 2007

posted by  someone claiming to be Bob on  Sat Mar 11 09:15 CST 2017 [RELATED]

Looking for instructions on how to R/R the Front Passenger side door and now the Tailgate unit as the vehicle was hit by a Town plow truck.

Also looking for replacements in the color code 471 (sierra mist green)

Thanks.

    What state are you in? You will have to get a replacement at a junk yard and insist on the proper color. Find out from your dealer parts dept which years you can use.

    The front door has an electrical connector attached to the A pillar, pull it out and pull it apart. The door stay is disconnected from the A pillar. Then there are two external torx screws at each hinge, just loosen them and lift the door off. Beware, the door is quite heavy and do not rest the bottom of the door on the floor to avoid scratches.

    The rear hatch is a bit harder, and heavier than the door. I am not sure where the electrical connector is, I assume it is in the roof panel. After the struts are removed, the tailgate must be supported, so you will need help removing the bolts.
