Ultrasonic liquid sensor, controller and buzzer to detect low coolant… | SwedeSpeed

I have a 2011 with 57,000 miles and decided to replace the pressurized overflow tank and add an ultrasonic liquid sensor to the outside of the tank. Warning-These steps may be a bit involved…. The sensor turns “on” in the presence of a liquid (antifreeze) and turns off if no liquid is detected. A controller…

Sventastic’s 850R | SwedeSpeed – Volvo Performance Forum

Well, looks like it’s time to join the 850 community! I’ve been driving an 1998 S70 T5 SE for the past 6+ years which unfortunately developed a rod knock, and due to my work/school/living situation, I had to limp and tow the car 150km home and find something new. And by new I mean older,…

“BRAKE FAILURE STOP SAFELY” and Traction Control messages. | SwedeSpeed

Buckle up, there’s a lot to unpack here… 2007 Volvo S60 2.5T Automatic I just had an alignment done on the car, and they also changed control arms and sway bar end links. Everything up front was pretty sloppy and knocking around. Maybe related, maybe not: since the service I’ve been getting a ‘service traction…

3.2 engine seized, now what? | SwedeSpeed

Posted on May 1, 2025 By rehan.rafique No Comments on 3.2 engine seized, now what? | SwedeSpeed
“BRAKE FAILURE STOP SAFELY” and Traction Control messages. | SwedeSpeed

Catastrophic engine failure in a 3.2 with that low of miles is almost unheard of. Honestly if you are good enough to tear down the engine then I would search for diy salvage yards and pull your own engine. I’ve seen plenty 3.2s make it over 300k. Its usually everything else besides the engine that…

JavaScript is disabled. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding. I’m considering installing a Bastuck exhaust system on my Volvo S60 T8 Twin Engine and find it curious why Bastuck isn’t discussed more in US forums despite being the manufacturer behind the popular Heico systems and offering similar products at…

“BRAKE FAILURE STOP SAFELY” and Traction Control messages. | SwedeSpeed

Bumping this thread as it’s been a while and wanted to see if there is any better feed back yet. Their pricing seems reasonable enough. I have owned my ’98 V70R since June of 2010, nearly ten years. I bought the car bone stock and steadily began modifications. At that time I worked at iPd…

Picking up a 2010 3.2 soon. | SwedeSpeed

My buddy got this in last summer. He’s the same guy I bought my ’06 V8 from several years ago. It has 156k miles. The previous owner had small children, and the interior is beyond gross. The rear carpets are black, stains and dirt/debris everywhere, and the smell was so bad, he had to leave…
