I dont have enough time to keep 3 Volvos running and will be selling a 1998 V70 NA with manual M56 five speed. I am the second owner and have had the car since 2013. It was purchased with 114K miles and now has 196K miles. Car is white with Volvo alloy wheels. Michelin Defender tires were purchased at 170K miles.
In the last 30K miles these items have been replaced:
Timing belt/tensioner/idler, water pump, serpentine belt/tensioner/idler, radiator, all radiator and heater hoses, coolant expansion tank, top engine torque mount, right bottom engine mount, fuel pump, fuel filter, cam position sensor, both drive axles (original Volvo rebuilt with new bearings and boots), right rear bearing hub.
The clutch is OK but doesnt engage as crisply as my other 1998 V70 NA M56. Mesh on the exhaust manifold flex joint has unfastened at one end so I expect the joint or manifold will have to be replaced in the next year.
The buyer can also have a free 1999 S70 parts car with dead engine and no auto-trans. The parts car has good leather seats, good sheet metal and may have usable exhaust manifold and catalytic converter.
The Brickboard has helped me keep the car running over the past 9 years. I want to see if a Brickboarder is interested in the car before posting it on Charlottesville, VA Craigslist.
Thanks,
Mike
