KY01V70XC Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 New member here and this is my first post. Thanks in advance by the way. 2001 V70 XC 75,0001.) Rattling noise coming from the front going over bumps. I have checked the struts by method of a previous post saying to use a 21mm wrench and to tighten (to the right) and feel for a "spring-back" when released. They appear to be fine. I did notice the the inside of the upper motor mount looks to be cracked, guess that's probably it?2.) I have just recently noticed that after the car has been parked for maybe 5-15 minutes there is a fan that runs for about 5 minutes and it blows air into the cabin. Not for sure if it has always done this and it is normal or if there could possibly be a problem. The car has never (knock on wood) ran hot.3.) The hood struts now have gone bad, won't keep the hood up. Anyway to fix these or will I have to by new ones?4.) Any info of where to get the best deal on booster seats and/or the third seat for the back?I would like to also add a comment. To begin with I usually always handwash my cars. After coming back from vacation this past weekend I had a ton of bird POOP on it. So I decided to run it through a carwash (brushless) and low and behold the machine broke my fuel door hinge. The only thing I can think of is that when I put the car in park it released the lock on the fuel door and the pressure of the water was enough to break it. I went to the local VOLVO service center and they had them in stock $14.00 after tax and put it on for me, pretty simple fix. Just remember if you find yourself in a carwash, don't put it in PARK!AGAIN, THANKS IN ADVANCE for any responses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
