This 2001 Volvo XC70 is in very good cosmetic condition but it does have several mechanical issues that need to be addressed.  I have replaced many parts but cannot afford to put any more money into this vehicle.  It would be a great car for someone that has the funds or skills to take care of the remaining issues. 

In the past year, the following items have been repaired/ replaced:

Timing belt

All 5 coils

ETM (aftermarket upgraded part by Xemodex)

Upper and lower engine mounts

PCV system

Front and rear Oxygen sensors

gas cap

Extras that will go with the vehicle:

I have the B4 servo parts, but they have not been installed

I have several quarts of correct transmission fluid and a "Gibbons method" kit for trans fluid changes 

Here are the mechanical issues that I am aware of that need to be addressed before you could consider it a daily driver:

Catalytic converter needs to be replaced (causing the check engine light)

Transmission service light is on - this is the main problem.  The vehicle never received the "neutral delete" software update which may be causing the problem.  Last time I drove it, the trans wouldn't downshift properly.  I think it was stuck in 3rd at a stop.  It does drive but it is very slow from a stop.  It will upshift once under way.

"position light bulb failure" warning light - I cannot determine why this warning light is on.  I received it from a bulb that was burned out, but it has been replaced and all lights are working on the vehicle, no fuses are burned out.  The warning light will not go away.  You may be able to get it cleared if you have the VIDA Volvo OBD equipment (I do not).

"alarm service" warning light - the vehicle alarm/remote works, but the alarm is triggered for no reason (no audible alarm, just the flashing light on the dash).  unlocking the doors with the key fob remote clears it and the vehicle will start, just don't know why it keeps triggering.

High beam switch doesn't work all the time.  The high beams work if you hold the switch, but the switch will not always stay in position.  The switch itself may just be dirty, there is nothing wrong with the lights themselves.

When this vehicle runs, it is a great car.  I do not have the money, time, or energy to get it back on the road.  So, any Volvo lovers out there are welcome to her.

You are welcome to inspect the vehicle prior to purchase and I would be glad to be available to meet your shipper if you need to go that route.  You will be responsible for all arrangements and payment to any shipper you need.  If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I will respond as quickly as possible.

Volvo finds a way to turn body panels into batteries [w/video]

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

One of the problems with designing an electric vehicle is figuring out where to fit the battery pack. Volvo - as a part of a European Union research project - is working on a way around this issue by replacing standard parts with lightweight components that double as batteries on both conventional and plug-in vehicles. The image above shows one such piece on a Volvo S80. While looking like nothing more than a carbon fiber plenum cover, the piece is actually a battery pack that can store and supply enough energy for the car's entire 12-volt power system.
The parts are made by sandwiching super capacitors (which can charge faster than standard batteries) in between layers of carbon fiber. They can then be formed to replace numerous body panels such as the decklid, roof or door panels. Volvo says that the replacing the body panels and batteries with these nano batteries can help reduce the vehicle's weight by as much as 15 percent. It has taken more than three years just to design the batteries, so there's no telling when, or if, we'll ever see this technology used on a production vehicle. Scroll down for a video and press release on Volvo's innovative battery technology.
