I'm glad you are relentless in fixing this volvo , most people would have givenup or not cared about some of the issues of the car
I am relentless with it indeed 😂
True, but it is a little easier when you have access to facilities like he is always in. I had that kind of luxury as well up until my friend who owned a shop with a couple lifts retired...Now, working on the car in the driveway is not quite as easy and can get depressing when things don't go right! 😉
@@rotaryrocket74 I hope your situation gets better, like you getting a garage and a lift eventually
@@ElliottAlvis I love you Elliott but your wasting time and money you could have bought a nice example for 6 to 9 grand. You should start a new project
Elliott, you NEVER say that a car is fully mechanically back together before first start! Such a curse is known to make random parts inexplicably disappear or become unhooked! But the oily mess aside, it's so awesome to see this car back working and with no error lights to boot (I don't count the low coolant light)! That must be a great feeling for you. Thanks for the video as always, and have a wonderful weekend!
Yep, I kinda jinxed myself by saying that. But either way, its running and driving now! Thanks for watching and commenting as always Bunker. Have a good weekend yourself!
I like to think Jake just senses that Elliott or JR are working on something and he transports himself there to watch over everyone and make witty remarks.
"There are no error lights! I don't know why there would be new ones but..."
Yep, that's the P2 ownership experience in a nutshell.
I have put way too much money into my S60R. So yes, it is
Exactly lol 😂
Number #1. I hope your uncle is doing well. He is the definition of family and friend. Speaking of friends. Dallas is a better friend than I or my best buddies. We would have told you to stop, stop, and then burst out laughing when you jumped out of the V70R. Glad to see things are moving in the right direction.
Man, watching this shows why I just avoid working on my cars outside of minor modifications! lol It'd be the same experience you just documented, but I'd probably end up killing the car completely. Congrats Elliot on getting her back on the road, and hope your Uncle recovers quickly!
These kinds of jobs can be daunting, but they can be done! Thanks for watching and the well wishes!
@@ElliottAlvis I would probably be more adventurous with access to a lift! I changed out some transmission bushings on my STI on ramps over a ditch and it was a pain in the ass and I also encountered an issue where I just could not get a bolt in so I had to take it to a mechanic just for that one. Damn bolt... Still have no idea what secret he used to get that sucker lined up and started.
Mitsubishi evo/airtrek drivetrain is the right way around and so much easier to work on. Dont need wobble adapters ratching wrenches and leaning over the engine
Glad to see you were finally able to get this car back on the road. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Now I know never to even consider changing the turbo on a V70R. 🤣
I would highly recommend against changing the turbo on a V70R lol 😂 Thanks for watching though!
I know the 4t4 like the back of my hand, one thing you NEED to be careful of is the plastic nipple on the cbv for the turbo, very fragile and I broke mine putting the turbo in and needed to get an aftermarket one. Also you need to cover the top of the turbo where the charge pipe connects with paper towel. If any bolt, nut, or anything gets down there you’ll need to re pull the turbo and fish it out which has happened to me before. But great job and Amazing platform choice!!!
As a senior myself, I appreciate the apparent self-sacrifice, Elliott, of the bloodied hands looking like they were yours!,
Haha, I wish I could claim the blood. But this time it was all my uncle!
The 54 is looking fabulous! When your uncle jumped on top of the engine in the time-lapse, that was funny. Jake's reaction to "Let's transition to tomorrow when we have new hoes" slayed me!
Haha, glad you caught that comment and reaction Paul. Thanks for watching and commenting! Always good to hear from you buddy.
@@ElliottAlvis Thanks Elliott. Hope your uncle recovers from the rona very quickly.
I love when your Uncle helps. He seems like a great guy. Great video! 👏
Man ... What a long time coming! Congrats man! 🤩👍 Good job!
Elliott, all the work you and Uncle Glen(and Dallas) have done on the Volvo fits the saying, “Never give up, never surrender!” So glad (“happy as a clam!”) you pressed on through all the issues and got it back on the road again! Even if it was just for a little while… Awesome work and great video!
After seeing what you guys went through installing the turbo, I don't feel so bad about the money the dealer charged me to do the same job on my R. Epic job. Well done.
Oh for sure. I'd be totally fine never doing this again 😅
Congrats man! Good to see it
Your uncle looked like he went twelve rounds, bare knuckle fighting that beastly turbo! Hope he is recovering nicely!
I hope your Uncle is feeling better. When I saw all that oil, I would have driven it to EuroAsian Bob’s and left it there. Thanks for sticking with it!
My uncle is feeling better now! Thanks for checking and watching Mark!
Great work on the Volvo, Elliot!
FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
It sucks when issue happen but it’s great to see it happens to everyone, even you. Real life!! I’m happy this project is moving forward!!

THANKS HOSS
Great video as ever, keeping it real. We all feel the pain when it goes wrong.
My CL is now at the end of a five month rebuild of many parts. First shake down test today before (hopefully) ready to be given back to me. Glad the Volvo is coming on.
Bit late to the video mate, but just want to say you deserve way more subscribers. This car is fighting you! I really admire your resilience too. Your Uncle is a legend as well, literally putting in bloody content.
Glad you guys are still working on this thing
Was worried you'd give up on it since it's been a pretty big pain in the butt
Good day .I am doing the same since more the 3 months.started with Pcv ,turbo,ac compressor condenser ,all seals on the engine .and many other to come .all this is outcome of improper maintenance from past owners .Such great cars .I have the same colour lik yours just without electric issues.sometimes I get inspired from your videos keep it up! regards
What an incredible video! Everything is going your way, only your Uncle was but out a while by Covid!
I trust that he made a full recovery whenever this was filmed.
The video all of us have been waiting for!
Yes indeed!
I simply love this Volvo videos!!!! keep it!
Thank you!
Last time I did something similar (replacing the manifold gaskets) I actually ended up removing the radiator fan, side engine mount, and loosen the back and front mounts, then jacked the engine up and slid forward a little.
This gave about 15 cm extra clearance at the back that utterly revolutionised the job.
Also, if you have anything else to do like a timing belt or the front PCV and you have access to a hoist, pulling the engine out is pretty easy and makes those jobs fly. It seems like major overkill, but in terms of time and effort it can be worth it. I took that approach on an 850 I had that needed a timing belt, clutch, hoses, and new engine mounts. Bigtime saved my knuckles.
You are very lucky in one regard: left hand drive the brake booster is out the way. On RHD that I worked on it sits on the other side and blocks access to almost everything! 😑
Oh goodness, sounds like you've got quite a bit of experience with these cars Chris! Thanks for the tips.
Congrats on getting the Volvo back together and moving under its own power! More importantly, hope your uncle is feeling better.
Congratulations. Epic battle. You won.
Hey, thanks!
Great to see progress. Good luck.
Thanks Chris!
Finally! :D Excited to see it when the paint is fixed! :D
Congrats! Great to see the Volvo running and on the road again! It's been so long! Seeing all that oil spew out must have been stressful!!!
Oh dude, you have no idea. After all of that work, for that to happen... It was discouraging for sure. But luckily it was a fairly simple fix and all is well! Thanks for watching buddy!
@@ElliottAlvis as always man! Great to watch the rise!
Looking brighter, content and related every video Elliot.
I'm enjoying the gangster trap music you've got playing! It's a nice mixup.
As a long roof elitist, I love you are spending so much time to bring this back!
It's the car we've all been waiting to see driving again.
😍😍
Great work and perseverance! You give me hope that one day my R wagon will be without warning lights. 👍
Happy to see the volvo again
Yay! Glad to see it working.
Thanks Nathan!
Bravo, Elliot! You now *shall* have the coolest ride at the next Cars & Coffee!
The anticipation I felt during this entire video was unreal!! I had to restrain myself from jumping to the end to see if the Volvo was fixed!!! This was so difficult to do!! What a feeling of genuine relief as you drove off until the low coolant light came on. I couldn't take it. OMG. I think I need a drink to calm myself down.
Nice to see the Volvo driving again.
You and me both! lol
1 minute since you both uploaded and you have more views than Hoovie 😂
Edit: Sorry I jinxed it 😂
Ah, darn. At least I had the lead for a minute 😂
Woohoo! An Elliott upload
Woohoo a Sock comment!
As soon as they yelled to shut it off I said banjo bolt...but was thinking it was a missing washer. Had that happen to me on a fuel filter when I was laying under the gas tank. Who knew gas burned skin so badly when you bathe in it? Great job guys...hope you're uncle is feeling better!
that little Corvair Concept in the background is beautiful!
So excited!
Same! Thanks Keith!
Greetings Mr Motory Notary, I'm glad that the Volvo is back on the road, I'm happy for you!!! You know it just seems that having so many challenges is just the way of the world anymore, nothing is easy!!! But the Volvo is running & driving now so we're happy about that!!! Thanks for sharing another exciting video!!! 👍👍🎃
It's everyone's favorite car, thats for sure! Thanks for all of the support and confidence during this time Christopher. Have a great weekend!
@@ElliottAlvis thanks Elliott, you have a great weekend as well!! 😁
Best method is using a lift and doing the 2 upper from above and the third bolt under the turbo and the rest from the bottom, i have done this on like 4-5 of volvo gasoline and 4-7 diesels and after a while you get the hang of it!
The time lapse looked like an interpretive dance.
It felt like one! Lots of looking up lol
I did this very same thing just a few months ago...what a pain in the ass! Only thing I did different was turning the engine over without spark and fuel to build oil pressure before I hooked up my oil feed on the turbo. I changed the oil at the same time so wanted to pump any old oil out so I had fresh new oil going in the new turbo. Doing something like that would've led you to your missing bolt right away...but hey, hindsight is 20/20!
Working on this Volvo = Death by a thousand paper cuts
Boy, it sure feels like it 😂
Clam like happiness is a rare state indeed!😂
It's something to strive for! lol
Love it, proper DIY stuff, I'm struggling the other way round with an imperial bolted American classic that I can't find any information on and everything is pointy and old!
wow it's working - if I was Elliot's wife I would be taking this off him and driving this all the time
Haha, I think she would be terrified of it breaking on her.
Gah, at the 21:00 minute mark I was about to type "I'm so happy for you." Then I heard you say "Uh-oh....low coolant" D'oh. Next vid it is going to be PERFECT!!!!!!! Congrats so far, wish you uncle well on his recovery.
Finally! Another Volvo video ! Yay!
I recommend getting the Haynes Repair manual for your exact car. it covers everything you need .
Great to see projects getting done!!
Thanks man! Tell me about it 😂
@@ElliottAlvis I swear these cars are like children 🤣say one mean thing and then they really let you know how they feel ☠️☠️☠️
Im Glad the Volvo is back , ive,been waiting for months 😉 hope your uncle is doing well🤷
When all is said and done the only thing that is important is that your Uncle is healthy. Please let us know how hes doing, he looks like a tough old bird and I and I think he'll be just fine
You're absolutely right Michael. Thankfully he is doing alright. Thank you for the kind words and thoughts.
bag and tag elliot bag and tag as parts can walk of carts
Excellent! Hope your Uncle recovers well.
Thank you!
The bloody knuckles are such a classic and reminder of why I finally dumped my 2007 V70R (same blue color), though at 235k miles, I at least provided some fun times to offset the downtime and dollars that went into keeping it running.
Thank you for always making my V70R seem totally sorted compared to yours. Never give up on it. Also if you'd like to never give up on my crashed c30 project I'd love to sell it to you, it's only a half a country away.
I think every V70R in the world is more sorted than mine 😂. And I'd love a C30, but I'm not sure I'm ready for bodywork and crash rebuilds just yet lol.
Jake Cameo is always welcome
That's how I feel as well. lol.
Nice to see you back and it was cool that Jake popped up as well. You know your Uncle is leaving you nothing in his will, right?
Excellent Video, with a working Volvo Extreme Closeups and to top it all off a crossover with Jake - what's not to enjoy
A little something for everyone! Thanks for watching Colin!
congrats on beating it into submission. hope your uncle gets the speedy recovery he deserves after all that. time for mods?:)
I love the amount of commentary in this video and the removal video about things not being accessible... as everyone actively disregards the recommended methods. 😂
[The manual says to drain the coolant through the drain valve - but we're just gonna make a mess on the floor.]
[We can't see the bolts we're working on because the bevel gear is in the way - because we decided to ignore the instructions to remove the bevel gear.]
I've been burned far too many times by thinking the 'quick and easy' way will actually be either quicker or easier than the long method on cars. Maybe one day I'll learn.
I daily a V70R in Metro Detroit. I know you're not going to use yours in the same way, but you will constantly have something to do. This year was control arm bushings, and active suspension faults
I remember when I rebuilt my V8 falcon motor many years ago the mechanic working with m put on a new oil filter but failed to check that the old o ring came off with the filter he took out!
We started the engine and oil spewed out of the filter all over the floor!! Panic!!!! We finally worked it out and were glad that we had not blown a new motor!!!
Hey bro, thanks for sharing your journey. These things are a pain to work on sometimes. Mine is in the shop now :(
a
This happened to me when I did my s60rs turbo lol oopsie
Glad I'm not the only one 😅
Well now I know where the turbo is located on my s60, it was mostly an educated guess from where all the fun sounds came. Now it's captured on video
So glad to see it running again and I hope your uncle is doing okay. Also my s60r has the same worn out vacuum hoses. What size is the hose you got?
Hope your Uncle feels better soon 👍🏾❤️
Yep.....great cars..... tedious pain to work on at times .....🤘
Good video.
If I'm not mistaken the turbo replacement on volvo T5 and T6 engine is an engine out job
New Balance shoes are for the Corvette. You need to wear loafers with the Volvo. Also, possibly one of those blazers with the elbow patches on it.
Also digging the music at 9:45
Thanks dude! The TH-cam audio library has some bangers on it.
Content Idea , Take the volvo to some kind of track to see how it performs and hope it doesn't break , a drag strip could be fun ,autocross , or half mile .
The Volvo Valdez! This is why I don't love working on transverse engines, but it could be works. Really hope your uncle is alright!
Volvo Valdez! I love that. And I totally agree, not a fan of transverse engines lol.
I noticed the lower lip of the front bumper isn't installed properly causing it to sag.
There are 3 'L' shaped plastic brackets molded into the lower radiator support, the rear lip of the bumper needs to be lifted into those 3 brackets, this stops it sagging.
Most people don't seem to notice these brackets, I didn't at first...but they're there. 🙂🇦🇺
Thanks for the tips John, I'll be looking into that for sure!
yaaaaaaaaaaaay, finally! PS... Uncle get well soon!
Time to get that bonnet resprayed, Rj in Oz
Yep, its getting closer to being that time for sure!
Angle gear and axle needs to come out to get the turbo out.,
I'm just here to see the vacuum hoses get connected.
Lol thanks Mark
rebuilt my turbo for $185 in parts, took a good 4 days to complete, that was 5 years ago, still good.
You're supposed to remove the angle gearbox and front pass side drive shaft, book time is 6 hours.
This V70 is the anti-Volvo
It sure it 😂
This car would drive me insane. Elliott has so much patience for this cursed vehicle.
When getting a car revived, it is sometimes a good idea to let the throttle position sensor relearn closed. Also ford electronics in this Era, ford strategies employed because ford owned volvo 2001-on.
Thats a good idea!
Also it should be green coolant!
If there is one thing ive learned about volvo’s after owning one, is that they never and i mean never go as planned when replacing something
Cool video
Thanks Mark!
13:01 was the best joke in internet history
