The leather door upholstery in my wife's '08 V70 is coming unglued at the door handles. Not surprising as similar things happened to glue in my 855T and C70. Thing is, the glue on the back of the leather is very sticky, but won't stick back in place. Get it on your hands and it's tough to get off.

I'm considering taking it to an upholstery shop for repair and also the headliner as a clogged sunroof drain had water soak into the front edge over the windshield causing it to peel away.

I might live with the headliner problem until it gets worse, but is there a solution to the door panel upholstery?

Fwiw, I did replace a headliner and sunroof in my old 855T but don't want to do that again.

Don't let someone talk you into a leaking windshield, I had my windshield redone and that did not help.

If someone tells you where you have a leak, cover that area with duct tape to check if they are right.

Good luck

Have you tried putting a wire down the drains to unclog them?

I used a piece of high temperature stranded wire - it is stiff, but flexible to get down the drain. I bent the wire back on to itself about 1/2 inch so that the leading edge is smooth - I bound the fold with a small piece of electrical tape.

Once I unclogged the drains and after that, about once a month I poured a cup of water down each drain to see if it came out the bottom.

I had particular problems with the trunk drains in my '90 544 sedan. I removed the panel in the trunk and found that the hose ended in a plastic fitting that was too small for the hose and it was folded to jam in the fitting - this caused it to clog on a regular schedule. I kept the wire in the trunk
and cleared the drain whenever it did not pass the cup of water test.

The upholstry coming apart seems to be a real adventure - fortunately I never had the problem, not even pn our 17 year old '96 855R.

Have you looked at volvospeed, youtube, or pintrest?
