Three questions:
1) How many quarts of oil does the 850 N/A engine take?
2) How does one go about replacing the light behind the clock in the dash? What panels need to be removed, etc.?
3) My mehcanic told me that a grounding "signal" was missing from my trunk hatch (my trunk light will not come on, even when the switch is rotated). What is this signal, and is it something I can fix on my own?

Thanks for any input!

Ray,
Did you ever figure out how to replace the light behind the clock? If so, pls LMK. The procedure wasn't on the volvospeed site as far as I could find. Mine just went out... I thought since it was unlit right after I picked it up from the dealer after they replaced the ABS module that they had broke it, but was advised that only a bulb burn out could cause the clock panel to go black Thx.

1. About 5.5 quarts for an oil change (it holds more but some
always stays in the oil cooler). Mobil 1 is sold 6
quarts to a case and I use most of a case and the final half
quart to top up oil between oil changes).

2. See http://volvospeed.com/bay13.htm for many service
procedures. They include steps to remove the dash (which I
think you are going to have to do). This is a great site
if you are a do-it-yourselfer.

3. Don't know.
