Well with Volvo topic being popular, back in college my student group was hosting a largest investment conference on the west coast at our school. One of our speakers was Ken Fisher. He was worth $1.5B then, $4.3B today. I was sent to meet and greet him and get him to the auditorium. He was arrivin...

Mine - engine off oil pressure zero, engine on lately it just pegs at 5 and stays there. One of these days I'll get a new sensor...one of these days. Already jiggled the wires and connectors...no go there.

I noticed in some previous post they said use a T30 bit. Mine is a 99 C2 four spoke steering wheel. The correct bit is a T27 for the air bag...

You know that light just pops out of the carpet....right? A long while ago I replaced a lot of the light bulbs with LED bulbs. Pop them into the light socket..easy peasy. But wait, plug it into the socket and it doesn't work. Cheap China crap! Actually, not so. LED bulbs are polarity sensitive. Swap...

Why are you going back to lug bolts?
I got these two tools in anticipation of replacing the airbag frame on the steering wheel
