I just scanned it again today and read all modules and there was no fault for the TPS.

Also, took it out for a few trips today and it's definitely fixed. Starts up and idles perfectly every...

No I didn’t have any codes associated with it but one reason may be that I only scanned the ECM thinking that’s where the code would show. I’ll have to scan all the modules and see if there was a...

First thing I would do is take out the HD TCV and set it on fire. The MAC solenoid style TCVs are known to cause tons of boost issues. Put back in a factory Pierburg TCV. As far as the whistling...

Short version: Engine was running good but idling bad. Turns out the accelerator pedal was bad. Replaced it and it's all good now.


Long version with details that could help others with this...

I would try replacing the passenger side cv axle first. The cv axle you just put is most likely a rebuilt unit and may already be bad. Your vibration complaint describes a failed passenger cv axle...

The devil is in the details...

I replaced mine about two years ago with a genuine volvo replacement and you have to cut the wires and splice the new connector into the old wires. The new part came with butt connectors:
...

Squeeze them with the channel locks anyway. They kind of pop in with your fingers but not all the way. They make a loud pop when they are in all the way.

Yes sir!

I did that a few months ago while I was replacing the blower motor and resistor. It was nice to be able to do it while I was in there. It's kind of a pain replacing just the cabin filter.

You don't need to remove the speaker. Just raise the window up about half way and pop this little black cover off.

This is on my driver's side but it should be the same on the passenger side.

My money is on the HU. I doubt the amp would make the whole thing go dead. Too bad you don't have a test unit to swap it out with.

My fault, I thought it was just like the C30's rear breaks.

No it's not enough for the rear. You need the plate with the two little dimples as shown in the kit posted earlier in the thread.

Sometimes it's the little things...

Thank you! Although it may appear to be perfect in the pictures, mine has blemishes too, but shouldn't it for 200k miles and almost 20 years?

Not sure about your mystery coolant leak. I've never...

Yup. In Florida a summer tire IS an all season tire!:D

@Phixion, if you're gonna put the time in to do the trim restoration, I highly recommend "Solution Finish." After trying many of the...

Quite a build!

Sachs vs. B4 is a toss up. I put B4's on my Dad's S70 and they are fine, nothing special though. You won't go wrong either way.

No real alignment issues to speak of. My rear camber is always...

Looks like a very nice S60!

I really like my suspension setup. I definitely would do it again the exact same way if I had to. But if you're not going to lower your car, I would suggest sticking...

Got some new rubber today. Other than the original Pirelli P6 tires that came from the factory, I've always run Bridgestone tires on this car. Mostly the RE-750/760 which I really like but they...

Sounds like a nice ride! We can't see your pictures though.

I use this site: https://postimages.org/ to upload images to swedepeed. It's free and easy.

Copy and paste the "hotlink for forums"...

Looking good! Glad the Solution Finish is working out. Considering that your trim was almost white, it came out looking pretty great.

+1 for leaving the wind deflector off. I'd rather look at...

My parents had a problem where the head unit screen went black in their S80. Volvo dealer replaced the head-unit and all was right afterwards.

Black on black, T5, manual... def. worth the price of admission!

Thank you!

So true. I always tell my wife we can never move up north because it’s too rough on cars!:nono::D

LMAO! So funny that you say that. One thing that has been wrong with my S60 for the past few years that I've been hesitant to fix is the power driver's seat controls. The seat is stuck in my...

Thanks! My secret for the trim is two fold, garage kept and an application of Solution Finish. When I have the time to do regular washes, I spray the car with Meguiars' Spray Wax as I dry it.

...

That's awesome! Glad you got it back on the road after all these years. I think you're really going to enjoy this car.
