Bryan Edwards 1989 Volvo Wagon http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1326874&rss=1 Wed, 21 Jan 2009 18:44 GMT I have a 1989 245 and I need to replace the windshield. I thought I read somewhere you could replace it with 91-93 style windshield. I tried doing a search on site but did not come up with any definitive. Is that correct? -- W. Bryan Edwards 1989 Volvo Wagon http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1326855&rss=1 Wed, 21 Jan 2009 17:15 GMT Check out Dave Barton's website: http://www.davebarton.com/240-odometer-repair.html. He gives detailed instructions on how to fix this and will also sale you the gear. I followed the instructions was a pretty easy fix. -- W. Bryan Edwards 1989 Volvo Wagon http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1326089&rss=1 Sun, 18 Jan 2009 02:15 GMT I appreciate all the ideas and thoughts. I got a fender from the local salvage yard for $53.17 and ordered me so new e-codes from FCP Groton. The fender is gray not silver but silver is so hard to match I was just glad I found a nice a fender without rust. I will post pictures once I get it put together. My Bentley Volvo 240 Service Manual and searching the board proved invaluable. Bentley had a diagram where all the screw were for the fender so it came off without a hitch as the spot welds near turn signal were broken from the wreck. -- W.

Bryan Edwards 1989 Volvo Wagon http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1325111&rss=1 Tue, 13 Jan 2009 11:32 GMT http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1325109&rss=1 Tue, 13 Jan 2009 11:31 GMT I was involved in accident last week where the other car ran a red light and I hit her in the driver's door and then she preceded to hit another car. Everything was caught on security camera so her insurance is paying. Here is the question. They will either buy my car for $1919.54 or give the car as salvage and give me a check for $1465.57. I am able to drive except it does not have passenger blinker so if I get stopped I could get a ticket. I am thinking on just taking $1400 and trying to get parts. The adjuster told my wife that the fender alone would cost $1500. Thoughts -- W.

I thought I had read somewhere that there was change in the metal used. Oh well must be reading about the 700s. Thanks -- W. Bryan Edwards 1989 Volvo Wagon http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=1041521&rss=1 Wed, 18 Jan 2006 23:45 GMT What year did volvo switch the hatch back to aluminum? Was it 1990? I have researched on the site and looked at google but have not found it. My 1989 hatchback is rusting and I am wanting to get a salvage aluminum hatchback. Thanks -- W.

I also like your temp guage. Is that Volvo temp guage? I would love to have one. http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=973581&rss=1 Sat, 18 Jun 2005 21:25 GMT When I shift into or from fourth gear it will buzz like the operation game. It will still go into gear and it does not do it every time. I have changed the fluid and have had the clucth adjusted. Any ideas? Thanks http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=973138&rss=1 Fri, 17 Jun 2005 14:43 GMT Manual tranny. I would have a hard time in the smoky moutains with a automatic. http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=972799&rss=1 Thu, 16 Jun 2005 18:04 GMT I just took a long trip in my 1989 245 and while on the trip passed 200,000. I averaged 28 mpg traveling at 75 miles an hour running the AC the whole way. It ran like a top. http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=972378&rss=1 Wed, 15 Jun 2005 17:59 GMT I also may take advantage of that BGVPD. I will let you know.

Thanks again! http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=958916&rss=1 Fri, 13 May 2005 01:04 GMT When I turn to the left it will automatically stop when I come back to center. When turned to the right and turn back to the center, the the blinker continues to blink. I took off the top of the column to look at the stalk assembly but . . . Can I put some electric grease, open up. Ideas? http://www.brickboard.com/RWD/?id=958851&rss=1 Thu, 12 May 2005 20:56 GMT The Best stuff I have found cleaning windshields inside and out is Invisible Glass by Stoner Solutions.
