    Had the same problem with my 940 sunroof - I burned-out several sunroof switches - the contacts were continually burning out. So I removed the electric motor./drive unit and replaced it with a manual winder unit - This was quite simple - I just had to modify the small cog on the manual unit. The manual unit is perfect and appears as if it has always been there. I never checked out the sunroof motor - but my guess is that there was a short in the windings which caused the switch to be overloaded.

    I always debate taking off the side trim before waxing, good to see someone else who doesn't. I used to be able to take them off and clean under them, but I started cracking the clips taking them off. I wish there was a different method of clipping the side trim on and off.

    The old Volvos are Masterpieces and the Red Block lasts forever, If regular oil Change is done. They are nearly perfect and easy to Work on. The Problems with the Instrument- Cluster is well known and If they Had Just wired the Instruments instead of using that plastic foil, there will be No Problems att all. Nearly perfect....anyway, this is such a Solid and reliable Car, you can't find this quality today

    I bought the sport exhaust from IPD and me dad and I are having an issue where the exhaust hangs kinda low because there's no obvious place to attach the pipe where the front silencer used to be to the frame due to the distance (reaching the o ring) and not having something to pull it up. Any suggestions? We tried a bracket and a leather strap but it was too busy and didn't make a difference so we're thinking of mounting an s hook with an additional bolt to connect the middle exhaust behind the cat to the frame? Too many potholes make it slide a little and the rear muffler pun is hitting the frame making an awful ruckus.
