Open the driver door, look towards the hinge area, and there's a little plastic door to slide open and inside you will find all the fuses.

P0300 Diagnostic Code - Random Misfire

Symptoms.
Engine may stumble or miss
Engine may be hard to start
you may notice no issues

Cause
Failing spark plugs or spark plug wires
Bad coil or coil pack
Failing oxygen sensor(s)
Bad fuel injector or more than one
Stuck exhaust valve
Bad catalytic converter
EGR valve or valve passage clogging
Bad camshaft position sensor
Bad PCM or ECM

The Fix
Best first action is a tune up, new plugs, wires, inspect all hoses and wire connections then reset the code. If it returns you will need to narrow it down to a system, coils and coil packs should be tested, catalytic converters for function ( do you smell rotten eggs?). A misfire that jumps cylinders could indicate a lean condition, do you have any other codes along with the 300? this will help clue you in to the source, check valve function to make sure they are opening and closing fully.
This is probably pone of the most difficult codes to troubleshoot, so start with the basics and work your way into the more expensive options, in many cases a good old tune up solves the problem, back it up with a fuel system cleaning and see where you stand.

(To) change the water pump and (time-strap?)

1. If you did not put spare bulb in glove compartment for emergancies (for shame!), buy H7 bulb (W-Mart is best bet). Should be about $8.00 each. The two pack is a better buy.

2. Open car hood. Behind the bulb is a black plastic "peanut butter lid" type of cap that seals the bulb in the housing. Unscrew this cap (1/16 turn) and PUT IT SOMEWHERE SAFE.

3. You will now see back of bulb. Pull off the power wire.

4. At top of bulb is a tension wire holding bulb in place. Unhhook the wire and it will hinge down out of the way.

5. Remove bulb (note its orientation) and discard.

6. Take new bulb out of package, but DO NOT TOUCH GLASS. Only hold bottom. Finger oils on glass will cook and reduce bulb life. Wipe glass clean just to be sure.

7. Install new bulb using same orientation as old bulb (it will not fit any other way) and re-latch the tension wire. Re-attach power wire (a dab of dielectric grease here would make for a professional job).

Get black cap from your safe place, note which part is bottom, and screw back on (1/16 turn).

8. Test the light, close the hood.

9. Put spare bulb in glove compartment so that next time bulb dies and policeman pulls you over, say "If I put a new bulb in now, can I avoid the ticket, officer sir?"

install taxi meter on volvo s80

A device that prevents a gas flame from entering the supply pipe.

I have found that this is due to a ball joint needing replacement. The armature will cost between $150 and $200 and will require an hour of labor.

Trouble code P1014 means: CMP Sensor/CKP Sensor Signals Not Compatible

I don't know if this will work for non-turbo models or other years of the S80, but it worked on my car:

1. Insert ignition key and turn to position I.

2. Push in the odometer reset stalk and hold it in.

3. Turn the ignition key to position II. Continue to hold the odometer reset stalk in. After a few seconds the Service light will begin to flash.

4. Release the odometer reset button.

5. Turn the ignition off. You're done!

I own a 2001 Volvo S80. If you damage the head it will cost over $2000 nor non-turbo motor to get repaired. (I highly recommend YOU DON'T replace it yourself!) If you are a skilled mechanic then go for it. One tool you will need is a "cam gear lock tool" this will keep the cam gears from moving and throwing the cam timing out... I personlly got luck when placing a ad on Craigslist.com and finding a local shop in Portland OR that specialize in building high performance Volvos and only charged $45 a hour for labor. Most shops start at $85+ a hour!

This is actually fairly easy. I just did it myself, but for cylinder 2. You need to get a new cylinder which will cost about $50 from Schucks. While you're at it get 6 new spark plugs.

Pop off the black plastic cover (both parts of cover) under the hood that's held down by 5 or 6 hex screws. Under there you will find the 6 cylinders. They should be labeled, but if not they go from #1-6 working from left to right, if you are facing the engine.

Simply unscrew the bolt that holds down the #4 cylinder, disconnect the wiring, replace with your new one, change the spark plug and then put it back on. That's it. I went ahead and replaced all my spark plugs while I was there. Dont forget to disconnect the battery though....it's in the trunk.

Worked for me and now she runs like a champ again.

Good luck.

how hard is it to remove a flywheel on 2002 volvo s80

The 2005 Volvo S80 has an inline 5 engine.

This means the the turbo is generating too much boost and is tripping out the engine management.

there are many causes for this. You should consult a ASE trained technician.

1. Turn ignition switch to position I.

2. Press and hold "day counter reset button".

3. Turn ignition to position II.

4. Continue holding day counter for about 10 seconds.

5. While SRL flashes, release day counter button.

6. Should hear "beep-beep" to confirm command accepted.

It is an error code that says the variable valve timing is out of limits, may need a timing adjustment or a new vvt solenoid

you simply get in car with door shut, turn key to "dash lights on position", hold odometer reset button in, then turn key to full ON position"headlights on" and hold for 3-5 seconds. light should be flashing. turn off then start car--done.

Ya i just did one on my 93 dodge and ill never do it again just take it to the dealer and pay the extra money because its a pain that's the best i got for you
