Lost keyless entry remote

Unfortunately there is not an easy answer for this. Volvo remotes are difficult to program and most mechanics and / or locksmiths won't touch them. My company does sell these remotes, but like I said above, it is difficult to find anyone to program them. If you take it to the dealer, they will want you to purchase the keyless entry remote from them, and of course charge you a huge fee! If you can find a locksmith or mechanic in your area to program a keyless entry remote for your Volvo I would suggest purchasing the remote online and save some cash. https://www.keylessentryremotefob.com/Volvo-Key-Fob-Remote-Replacements-s/1855.htm

98 v70 shifter replacement?

I believe you just shift it to "D" and then straddle the shifter and pull it straight up with all your might. It's a bear, but doable.

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.

Have Volvo V70 T5 1998.ABS light on speedometer not working

I would check to see if there is a fault code for a vehicle speed sensor (VSS), so you need to have the engine control system (known as the OBD2 control system)) module scanned for fault codes to see if the VSS has set a failure code.

XC AWD. Why is check engine light still on?

Why did you replace the 02 sensors? These monitor the amount of air/fuel in the exhaust. If the engine is running too rich/lean the code will return regardless of replacing these sensors. What code did you get?

On 1998 Volvo V70, just replaced the window control unit on the driver's side with a new one. All windows work except for the driver's.

Check for power and ground at the window motor itself. Power motor directly and make sure that motor is ok.

Where is the pvc valve on a 2008 volvo v50

There is no PCV Valve, there is a Flame Trap System underneath the Intake Plenum on the front side of the Block. These are made of plastic and get plugged up, crack, and the plastic Vacuum lines fail. IPD carries the entire system. You will have to remove the Intake Plenum so you will need a gasket for that as well.
