Help with warning lights
Hi, what a great forum, with loads of helpful info. I've just bought a v40 2.0T 1990 with 88k miles. It has a few issues that I'm gradually sorting, but so far I am pleased. I never imagined buying a Volvo, but am glad I did.
Temperature- was running cool and heating was poor. I changed the thermostat and that sorted those issues as well as giving be another 5 mpg. Now it runs at 30mpg. Dash illumination- got new bulbs for the heating controls. A few other bulbs got changed I still have a fog light to change, as it has a cracked glass. I also have the turbo oil seal to change as theres evidence of a leak. I need some advice about a couple of warning lamps. The airbag and washer fluid lights are on. The washer level is fine, but I haven't had the airbags checked yet. I just want to make sure that those two lights on at once are'nt a code for anything else. Thanks for all the great tips and information so far. Last edited by spider147; Dec 19th, 2007 at 21:28. Reason: spelling! |
