If you have a coolant leak at the rear of the engine, there are not too many choices that it could be. Either the turbo itself, the coolant hose to the turbo, or possibly a hose going to the heater core.

SOURCE: how do i gain access to fuelpump on 2002 volvo v70

From Volvo Cars of North America letter I received:  "[Volvo] has voluntarily decided to extend warranty coverage for the fuel pump on U.S. model year 2001-2002 Volvo S80, S60, V70, and XC70 vehicles."
The letter goes on to describe conditions that in the end, may result in a fuel odor.  "Coverage is limited to the symptoms described in this letter for the fuel pump only." 
Contact a Volvo dealer to have this corrected under warranty.  If you already paid to have this fixed, then you can submit the repair order with a copy of the warranty letter (keeping both for your records) to Volvo on the address on the letter.  If you did not get the letter, I'd suggest contacting Volvo.
Bottom line is that you should not have to pay to have this fixed.

SOURCE: 98 Volvo V70 Turbo engine oil leak

It may be the gromet for the PCV valve or it could be the spark plug rubber seal located in the valve cover if it is the type of engine that has the wires and spark plugs that go down through the valve cover, if this is the case buy a valve cover gasket with the rubber gromets that are located around the base of the hole where spark plugs fit through and install.

Steering groans and smoking from rear of engine

It sounds like there is a leak in the power steering and the fluid is dripping on the exhaust. To quiet the noise and avoid further wear and tear on your power steering, try adding some fluid. To find and repair the leak you'll probably want a qualified mechanic to have a look at the system.

Coolant leaking into floorboard on 1999 volvo v70 and oil level is constantly dropping despite no oil leaks under car

If you've got coolant coming into the car, then its probably the heater matrix which has a hole, either in the small radiator or a hose (Behind and below the dasbhoard). Invariably a nightmare to get to.

If you're using/loosing oil. Then check the tail pipe, if there's blue smoke coming out, the engine is burning oil. Usually valve guides or worn piston bore..

Hi- I have a volvo v70 automatic, this fault comes and goes.....the engine idle is very eratic and also not always at the same time there is a terrible whistling noise from the engine. Thanks Phil

Sounds like you have a leaking vacuum line. If it has a hole or is cracked, it will leak or **** air causing the idle to be erratic. The vacuum lines or hoses should be traced down for any cracks or dry rot and replaced. The heat from the engine and the emissions causes the hoses to break down and a lot of people don't realize these should be replaced. The vacuum lines or hoses coming from the intake area is the main area to look at.

What is the stock turbocharger on a 2001 Volvo V70 2.4T (engine code B5244T3)? The turbo is acting up and if I need to buy a new turbo I would like to buy a larger turbo to get more power out of the...

bigger is not better when it comes to turbo units as Leyland found out when they fitted a turbo to a 690 diesel that resulted in the destruction of the engines and damage to the company reputation of a reliable engine manufacturer
Subsequent engineering found that a much smaller turbo produced more power without the destroying the engine
The turbo fitted to the engine originally is the correct unit for the maximum power that the engine mechanicals can handle
What you have to do is to ensure that the variable vanes of the turbo are working correctly and there are no boost pressures lost from intercooler leaks and loose hoses
Run the fault codes to determine sensor and actuators for the existing turbo are fully operational

Yes, your intercooler is a problem cos it cools down the turbo charger. The turbo is what gives you your extra power, and when it overheats, it loses pressure and thatcauses loss of power.

Changing the thermostat

It's not hard, just a bit messy. Follow the top hose that runs from the radiator to the engine. Where it stops is the location of the thermostat. You will need to drain the coolant out of the radiator before you begin taking things apart. Be prepared to replace the coolant with new coolant mixed 50-50 with water when you are done.
Go to the parts store and get a new thermostat for that year/engine/model combination. Remove the hose from the thermostat housing, remove the housing and pull the thermostat out. Note how the spring on the thermostat faces. Clear out any gasket material that remains with a soft scraper -don't damage the area where the housing goes or it will leak. Put the gasket and thermostat in, put the housing back on and remember not to over-torque the bolts or when the engine gets hot bad things will happen. Replace the hose (is it time for a new one anyway?) and then refill the cooling system with antifreeze. Start the car and check for leaks.

Volvo 1998 v70 tdi loss of power and a lot of black smoke lamda fuel light has been on since timming belts replaced been told its the turbo pump runnig at half is this possible and where is the turbo pump...

I don't know about the turbo running at half, but I can give you two ideas.

If it only started after the timing belt was replaced there is a very good chance that the timing is off. The car has very specific instructions due to the variable valve timing.

There is also a chance that there is a hole in one of the turbo hoses. One way to check for a leaking turbo hose is to put the car in reverse and set the parking brake. have someone listen for a large air leak while you power stall the engine. if there is a leak it will make a lot of noise and you can feel for it with your hand, just don't burn yourself.

DO NOT POWERSTALL THE ENGINE MORE THAT THIRTY SECONDS AT A TIME AND NO MORE THAN TWICE. IT WILL GET VERY HOT VERY QUICKLY.

DO NOT SHUT OFF THE ENGINE RIGHT AFTER POWERSTALLING. THERE IS TO MUCH HEAT AND COULD CAUSE DAMAGE. LET THE ENGINE IDLE FOR THREE MINUTES AND IT WILL BE FINE.


I hope this helps
