Nope, 07 is the last year for them. 08 and up now have R "Design", which is just a bunch of visual upgrades, no performance, which really stinks.

The Angle Gear has cost Volvo a ton of money,...

HA! I bet you have seen your fair share of R's. I know the early years had a heck of a time, especially the 04's and 05's. They have made some improvements and I haven't had a single issue with my...

Exactly. I won't be doing that much work for this thing. It's simply a daily driver used by the wife to park downtown KC so the LS doesn't get beat up and for me to use when I travel out of town to...

Ooooooor park this POS in the street and let it leak out there.

I'll try the OPS, but I'm not putting that much time/effort in a car with 185k on it, that sounds like a *****.

Well, I'll give that a shot again and use the teflon tape and be more careful this time. I probably over tightened it before.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was searching for but didn't come up with anything. Got a lot of hits for the timing chain rattle, but nothing on the cover.

I took a peak under it tonight and it...

Thanks, I'll do that. That's what's hard with these things is that the oil can travel a ways from where it's actually coming from. I hate to just keep throwing darts.

Still no one can tell me...

But, wouldn't it leak all the time if that was bad and not just when the car is running?

With it being on the passenger side, I think the TC cover is a good guess, but I just can't find a good resource that says how hard it would be to remove and re-seal. It looks like a pain in the...

Yes, that was the first thing to get checked/replaced, then the VCG's, now I'm just searching.

Yes, I figured that's what you were referring to, thanks for the clarification though.

Is there a resource anywhere that shows the best way to get the TC cover off? I can't find crap on here...

I think it would be pretty easy to change the oil pan gasket, but I would think the timing chain cover would be a b!tch. Is there a gasket around the TC cover? If not, how the hell would you seal...

Oil Leak, Only When Running

Okay, I've replaced both VCG's with no luck. They were both leaking as well, but I still have a leak somewhere. If it sits for an extended period of time without running, it doesn't leak, but if...

Thanks, I'll give them a call. I actually already replaced my oil sending unit, thinking that might be the problem. I think it might be the oil pan gasket, but I'm tired of messing with it, I'd...

No, I was told that if only the KS is bad, it won't throw the SES light by itself, only if something else throws the light first.

Intake Air Temperature Sensor

Can someone tell me if this is something that can be cleaned or do I just need to replace it? Also, where the hell is it? My check engine light is on and that's what it told me was bad. Also, does...

I'll give the hardware store a shot this weekend. I will not be able to use the nut though, it was the wrong one and it did not screw on all the way. I need to completely start over with the whole...

Lower Alternator Bolt

Where can you pick one of these up? Am I going to have to go to a hardware store? The one on mine is all jacked up and a nut won't go on it. So, it's just sitting there kind of stabilizing the...
