Intro to my new V70 and questions V70-XC70 2001


Q1: The last VR I changed was in a 1998. I removed the top coolant hose to get better access to the back of the alternator. Disconnected the battery ground, unplugged the wires on the back of the alternator, removed the 3 screws holding the black cover. The VR is held in with 2(?) Phillips head screws.

I have no idea what you are referring to regarding the 'large' plastic bolt'. Do not remove it.

Q2: You may have a dirty injector or two. A couple of bottles of injector cleaner might help that. Or a very dirty cylinder.

Q3: Lemforder control arms. High quality stuff ONLY. I have only used OE shocks on the FWD cars, they last around 130K.
