Robert you specialize in Volvo or cars in general. I'm interested in buying and fixing up a 98 s70 to hopefully make a small profit…
Hi Robert. Is there a way to open the hood of a 98 V70 that has the cable broken from inside the cabin?
I've seen several of your videos and saved myself much needed cash. Good job.
My cable doesn't seem to be broken the drivers side releases but the passenger side is stuck shut
Hi Robert , my cable broke at the tiny-cylinder-shape-end that slide into the red handle,do you know what product No. of the cable ?
I've google it but not for sure; 9444027 or 9152048 or ? ; I can't not see very clearly on the photos that which one is with cylinder-end or ball-end . Thank you !
Is there a part number for the cable running from inside the passenger cabin through the firewall for a 1998 Volvo V70 XC? I keep seeing the cable that runs from latch to latch. Can the whole assembly be purchased new?
Thanks for any help.
Hello! The passenger side latch on my 850 no longer locks, even when I press on it with a screwdriver. Would you recommend a good cleaning and greasing or would I just be better off buying a new one? About to drive from Washington to California, so I don't think I want the hood not securely latched. Thanks!!
How make the bulbs at the end of cable?
Hi!
What is the lenght of the Volvo 850 hood cable?
Hi Robert,
I have check engine light on, went to autozone they told me its a turbo boost sensor. Do you have a video for this, is it difficult to change it yourself? Thank you for all of your great videos!!!
That cable did look ok but it may be a bit dry of oil perhaps.
For my motorbike cables ive made a funnel of putty around the end of cable jacket and filled it with oil, and hung it vertical overnight.
I do like lazy methods lol 😀
Good video. Thank you.
Not sure if there is another video …but it would be interesting to hear how to open hood if you go to pull lever and latch is stuck / won't open
Nice. I had to lower my drivers side latch to get mine to work. I'm waiting for a parking brake cable replacement video. Mine is frozen.
Ooooh! Finally Robert =D I haven't even watched the video yet, but I do believe it's great.. Gonna watch it when I lay in bed, perfect time to watch car videos.. But that means I stay up too late as well.. Oh well 😉
