 Up for sale is a very rare 5 speed manual transmission 1996 Volvo 850R. This has been my sisters car for the last four years and she loved it but her family is expanding and she needs a wagon to fit everything. She bought the car with 230K and at that time it had a leaking rear main seal. Since the transmission had to come out my sister said she wanted to put a manual transmission in the car. Since i have done 6 manual transmission swaps them before this one it was a quick and easy conversion. I used a good transmission and all the necessary parts from a donor non turbo 1996 850 that had 140K. I put in a brand new OEM Volvo 850R clutch and bearing. I also replaced the axle seals rear main seal and anything else that need replacing. The ECU is from a 1998 T-5 S70. The check engine light is on for the air pump and barometric pressure sensor. I know someone who passed the emissions test for my sister so i never needed to get it flashed out. These codes can be tuned out by sending the ecu out to ARD tuning. Eight months ago the car lost compression on cylinder 2 which was a burnt valve. I took the head off replaced the bad valve replaced all the valve seals and reseated all the valves so this wouldn't happen to any other valves. I also replaced all the upper engine seals and all the gaskets. I also cleaned and replaced the breather system. I also installed new spark plugs wires cap and rotor. The timing belt was also replaced at this time. All the parts used were brand new OEM Volvo parts.The engine runs great doesn't burn any oil or coolant. The transmission shifts smoothly and the clutch engages properly. There is a small oil leak from the cooler lines or the breather box. I didnt look into it because she is selling the car. The suspension and steering is in great shape and doesn't have any play or clunks. I have replaced quite a few things in the front suspension over the years. wheel bearings control arms tie rods spring seats ect... The interior is in good shape not everything works as it should. the headliner is saving because someone before me drilled a hole in the roof to put an aftermarket antenna in the car and it wasn't properly sealed. it has been resealed but the headliner was not fixed. The body has its fair share of dings and scrapes but it has never been in an accident or had any paint work. I do not have the original rims they have been sold because my sister was tired of replacing blown out tires. Please email me with any questions or if you want to come see or test drive the car.

Thanks for keeping us on our toes, Detroit Auto Show [w/poll]

Wed, Jan 14 2015

Here at Autoblog, we love unexpected debuts at auto shows – and judging by our Detroit Auto Show comments and traffic, you do, too. Surprise reveals have been fewer and farther between in recent years with so many ways for vehicles to be teased or leak out, but this week's show has been a revelation. More to the point, it's been a series of revelations, with automakers from around the globe successfully delivering a brace of concept and production surprises. It's made our jobs a lot more exciting and challenging this week, and even though it's actually more work to react and run-and-gun when the sheet is pulled on a surprise reveal than it is to publish an already-written embargoed story, we've had more fun covering this show for you than any domestic show in memory. We hope you've enjoyed the surprises along with us. To that end, borrowing the words of an unnamed automaker PR flack, we'd like to thank the following automakers for enduring "mountain of antacids" and that "creeping sense of paranoia" necessary to keeping ones' wares totally under wraps until the sheets are pulled off the sheetmetal: Buick Avenir concept Chevrolet Bolt concept Ford GT concept Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Hyundai HCD-15 Santa Cruz concept And while we're at it, we'd like to throw in an shout-out to Detroit's substantially revised and revitalized Cobo Center, and in particular, the redone Michelin media center, which is arguably the single best accommodations for writing show stories that we've encountered on the entire international circuit. Well done, everyone. Thank you, and keep the surprises coming. Auto News Detroit Auto Show Buick Chevrolet Ford Hyundai Volvo 2015 Detroit Auto Show

Volvo teases mysterious new small crossover

Thu, 16 May 2013

The image you see above is just about all we know of the new Volvo crossover that will be revealed at 8:30 pm Central European Time on May 17 (2:30 pm Eastern Standard Time). Volvo released three very short video teasers, all with the tagline "Leave The World Behind," all of which feature a member of the now-defunct band Swedish House Mafia - Axwell sits in a boat in the first, Sebastian Ingrosso walks toward cabin in the second and Steve Angello stares at the sea in a third.
A microsite, www.leavetheworldbehind.com, accompanies the teasers and it's been said that a short film by Lune will feature the band - Swedish Mafia had a hit in 2009 with the song Leave the World Behind. As for the vehicle, theories are that it could be something between the V40 Cross Country and XC60, the new XC90 or something else entirely. We don't have long to wait, and you can watch both teasers below.

Which car companies are creating new jobs in America?

Fri, Sep 22 2017

Since January, automakers have announced investments totaling $9.5 billion in U.S. plants, creating or retaining more than 12,000 jobs. Some of those companies have yet to announce just how many jobs will be created given their investments, with the location of many of those jobs still to be determined. Specifically, the 4,000-job Toyota-Mazda joint venture plant still hasn't announced its location, with numerous states jockeying for it. Hyundai has plans to invest $1 billion but has not announced a jobs number yet. And likewise Ford is investing $1.2 billion in Michigan without specifying a number of jobs. Volvo this week announced plans to add a second line to its factory under construction in South Carolina, spending another $500 million and adding 2,500 jobs to the 2,000 it was already trying to fill. Then Thursday, Daimler announced a $1 billion expansion to its facility in Tuscaloosa, Ala., to produce EV batteries and electric SUVs, a move that will add 600 jobs to its hiring this year. Above, we've created a handy pie chart showing you which companies have announced new jobs and how many there will be.
