Hello all,

I have several questions about repairing my 98 S70.

1)My ABS/Tracs light is on. This is not always on but usually most of the time. The dealer said that a sensor is probably out? Could this mean anything else and what is the cost/way to repair it? I sometimes notice the light comes on when I hit a bump or the there is a creaking/squeaking sound and then the ABS/Tracs light comes on.

2)When I lock the doors and then unlock them, the driver's side door locks don't unlock. The dealer quoted me about $100-200 per door to fix which is ridiculous. Any advice on ways to fix/cost?

3)About 1.5 years ago, the check engine light came on and the dealer said it needed a new air pump. I had the light turned on and it has intermittenly come on and gone off. The last month+ it has been off. The main concern is that it would not pass emissions check here in Ohio. Any thoughts on why it went off an if the the air pump needs replaced.

4)The bulb warning light has been on most of the time for the past year. I visually inspected the bulbs and changed them. However, after a little while, I noticed that the light came back on immediately. After looking at it, I am thinking either the bulb was not fitting properly or there is a short?

5) The turn signal does not blink automatically, I have to manually push the turn signal up and down...it sounds like a short an cheap fix...any ideas?

6)What kind of leather cleaner preserver do you use to clean the seats?

7) Has anyone noticed that the CD player will not play CD's that were created on a CD burner?

8)My S70 is about 122K miles on it now and I had the brakes done at about 60k and the timing belt changed at 70-80K mi...when should I expect to do this again?

Sorry to post so much but I thought I would just get it out there. Please keep in mind I am looking for the lowest cost solution to these problems.

Thanks,

Jonathan
