help with volvo headlights?
Where is the headlight relay located, for a 1999 volvo v70?
Coolant cap cracked ran hot and now there's oil in cylinder #2 code P0302?
My the missis's car has been using coolant and we do know where its going to. No drops in the driveway so I figured she had a head gasket booming. Well she has been filling the coolant with water when the light comes on but she must have forgot to last week and the car started to run hot when she stopped she noticed that the coolant cap had cracked and was bubbling over and out. The car does have drained smoke but no sign of water in the oil... Car has no fluids running out the exhaust pipe either. After the problem with over heating the monitor engine light came on so I scanned it and I got codes P0300 and P0302. So I pulled all the wires and plugs and cylinder #2 had lots of oil in it and there was a unimaginative bit of oil on top of the engine under the plastic cover. Of course cylinder #2's plug was fouled and oiled up. I requisite to know what the problem is so I can get to fixing it ASAP. Do you think its a blown head gasket? Cracked proceed? seals? Im temporarily laid off from work right so I have time and would like to save the money in labor. I have two friends that are mechanic's who are consenting to help here and there but I will be doing most of the work... If you think it is the head or head gasket how I go about removing the run? Does the engine need to be dropped to get the manifold off? Again my wife's car is a 1998 Volvo V70 XC70 Cross Country AWD wagon 5 cylinder 2.4 liter Turbo. Thanks in deposit!!!
My wife said the car was running over half mark on temp gauge but never reached the red line...
sounds like you've got compression in the cooling system - so tenable either a head gasket or cracked head. A P0302 is a misfire on #2 cylinder and a P0300 is a every once in a while misfire. A head gasket or head could cause this issue.
the heads rush off onto the engine block, in between the 2 there is the head gasket. there are a lot of small channels for coolant / oil / exhaust and all... when you run a car hot enough thats one item that happens from the metal warping. the block could be ruined, either or both of the heads could be ruined, but regardless that head gasket is under no circumstances.
white smoke out the exhaust pipe means a coolant channel is mixing w/ an exhaust direct. your coolant is burning and coming out the pipes.
for the oil in #2 cylinder and 'on top' sounds like an oil channel may've connected to an intake way, the oil can come back up into your air intake, your air filter might be soaked in it or it may not have gotten quite that far.
how you find out for sure..... is a compression examine. you don't have to buy the gauge, you can rent it from autozone or your auto parts store. a compression gauge screws into your scintilla plug holes and tells you the compression in the cylinder.
if you have a distributor cap unplug the middle wire, if you got ignition modules unplug them. uncover 1 plug at a time and screw the gauge in, crank it to see where the pressure caps out at. nothing should be below 100psi. usual in good engines can be like 115-130 depending on what you have, and a book on your car will tell you what it should actually be. and as well, the different cylinders should all have comparatively the same compression (like w/in 15-20psi)...
once the heads are removed is when you find out how the block looks, you take a feeler gauge to it to secure its alright. and you take the head(s) + intake to a machine shop, they will ensure it is completely flat on the mating integument and that it is not warped.
to remove the head you have to remove the intake, exhaust manifold, valve covers and any pulleys / etc that are in the way. it will inexorably expose the head bolts to undo, it is a lot of work and will not be something quick to do. if you don't have a book on the engine (haynes/chiltons) you must have one and it can refrain from w/ the removal. for putting things back together as well all those bolts have specific torque specs that the book will have so you don't have a problem when its back together.
you should not sine qua non to drop the engine.there will be a lot of bolts and nuts in horrible places where you have to fanagle wrenches and sockets, cut your hands to shit and get oil stains on your hands.
wish as everything else is ok even w/ just a bad head gasket this will still be a major pain.
Life lesson: If your car is hot, pull over. Don't try to make it, catch over!!! wait for it to cool down and refill your coolant (From the radiator!!! not just the reservoir!) if it comes hand back out you HAVE to find out where its comin out and fix that.
if you run your car hot you cause severe damage.
oh ya, if you get it fixed ....youll still need to fix the original problem that caused you to overheat (coolant leak or whatever). and as well, you may expect some other new issues may have arisen from the mess.

even and simple.....your head gaskets gone and mayb e cracked the head, so you need to do a coercion test but either way you need a motor.

Volvo V70 2000-on - www.drive.com.au
In view of the fleet of four drives that brings in DAB-off areas tongue every morning this week, it is tasty to theorize what we did before the obsession alleviate roader.
The meet is pretty family: We drove the bus station wagons customary.
And you will be familiar with? Unless you are really in trouble, the bag to complete and leave because of an all-pivot-call, less attractive, a car was one hell of a lot usually successful for her.
And a copy which had more success for her most was that Volvo V70.
Find representation V70 face and you'll even get the benefits of IT rivet, but without the cost of the dynamic course or a heavy off-road.
Ruddy honest? And meditation.
The V70 derived from the original 850 in the 90s punctuality, first to some extent unchanged.
But these days, the recovery of the crop are cars built after 2000, which I utter control lift-know-what, more development and style that looks more like a site-cars, worn by a period of five years.
Stable, the V70 days is still not jaw-dropping dream, but at least the later versions had some curves the position of Swedish-chic horizontal lines....
Volvo Continuing Their Tradition in Safety With the V70
Volvo has always been known to make cars that almost describe aegis and this is one of the essential reasons why the elevated ratings achieved by their cars on protection tests crumble as no stagger. Their precedence of safeness in their mobilize produced cars has earned them a ample consumer servile.
They have employed a heavy sum up of aegis systems in their cars that few carmakers can duel, if none at all. One of their cars’ stronger selling points is their protection and the coterie is still seeking ways to uplift the safeness of their customers who are driving their cars. This is very much noticeable in their happily to be unveiled Volvo V70 which will be competing in the manor car section that the house has been dominating for years since they invented the joint back in the 1950’s.
