r/Volvo850

Well worth the money and extra effort to do true neon tubes, rather than LED strips. Was a bigger project than I expected and took 5 hours without instructions, but well worth the effort. Went to a car cruise on the 4th and saw other people with LED underglow, and it just isn't the same as the perfect even glow we had in the 90's and StreetGlow is bringing back to the market with their Gold Series.

Recently replaced the pcv system and fuel injectors, engine now shakes at idle and can be felt through the steering wheel, it does not look like any vacuum leaks are present, is there a common cause for this after PCV system replacement or fuel injector replacement? The fuel rail popped off the fuel line, I couldn't find anything on putting it back on correctly so maybe there is air getting in through there throwing the air/fuel mix off? I appreciate any help trying to solve this.

Greetings, everyone!
I started my 1993 Volvo 850 today and noticed a loud humming noise, and when I disconnected the connector on the picture (The one by the passenger headlamp) It immediately stopped.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Nice little upgrade. Proper suspension with the added bonus of proper camber adjustment 👌

After breaking far to many things i finally got the everything lined up and adjusted. I started the car and it seems to run fine but has a bit more clickyness to it....

When i took the old belt off i marked the cams because one was slightly twords each side if the window. And the new belt is fitted the same.

After turning it on i checked the timing marks and it seems to be in time still.

Im worried that i fked up the engine...i definitely started it when it was out of time by a tooth initially.....

In few weeks, I'll take my 850 from Belgium to Swiss for a roadtrip/wedding party. But I was wodering if some special work is mandatory before 1600km in 4-5 days by this warm (45°c). I've already done timing belt 6 years/40-45 000km ago. And during the last 2 years ; New brakes, all filters + 10w40, sparks, steering ball joint, CV boot and differential seal. Suspensions are ok.

Except a real alignment for my wheels that I want to do. Do you think guys that I need to do the flushing works like cooling, brakes and steering before ? Have you some advices ?

Thanks in advance, have a great day 🔥

I just crashed my baby. Truly one of the best cars i have ever been in and im glad i at least had a chance at owning one. See page for details.

The instructions say to use an allen wrench to move the metal tab to move the indicator into the adjustment window but on both the old and new moveing the alen wrench dosent do that... and i just snapped off the tab of the newly installed one trying 😢

My relay panel has the brown 210 jumper and an empty 211 position. Does this mean Guard II was never fitted, or has the 210/211 module been removed?

Can I install the correct module and remote to get factory remote central locking working?

Thanks.

I have a volvo 850 GLT car. It has a sunroof. If i pressed the switch its only went to the pop up mode. Not going back. Is that mean my car doesn't have a fully opened sunroof or its broken. I attached some photos. Please help me with these photos. Because i love this car with a fully open sunroof. I got this car like one week ago. If you want other pictures please tell me. Please help me 🙏

If you do, dm me a picture and your price. Thank you.

Looking to see if this nipple is a vent or needs to be connected to a vacuum line. I didn't see any loose ones, but wanted to be sure.

I was chasing down a P0103 code and was looking for leaks on the intake side in addition to cleaning up the massive amounts of oil and gunk, so hopefully cleaning the PCT helped since a different MAF didn't.
