Replying to: mnjasper (Aug 06, 2009 6:36 am) Did you ask the dealer how much and how long FOR THOSE ITEMS LISTED IN THE MANUAL? That is key. If you asked "how much for 30k service," then they most likely quoted you the time and money for THE DEALER'S recommended service, not Volvo's.

Replying to: mnjasper (Aug 06, 2009 6:36 am) Man, that sounds WAY high. 30k isn't that involved for an S80. I'd get a breakdown of what exactly they are doing.
#2327 of 2358 Buzzing sound after engine turned off by tulsahog Aug 12, 2009 (4:53 pm)
On an 03 S80 with 42,000 mi, there was a buzzing sound which lasted for about 3-4 minutes after the ignition was turned off. I noticed the coolant fan was not running, as it usually does after stopping. This was after some city driving and the temp gage was showing normal - exactly where it usually runs. I restarted the engine and then turned it off. There was no noise. My first thought was a problem with the fan.   Is there some way I can check for the fan as the problem before taking to the dealer? Maybe unplug the fan and see if the noise stops? The fan turns freely by hand. Replies to this message: unhappy99 (Aug 12, 2009 5:52 pm) tulsahog (Aug 13, 2009 7:30 am)

Replying to: tulsahog (Aug 12, 2009 4:53 pm) I will talk to my mechanic tomorrow and give you a feedback on that. This guy is really good, he fixed a Turbo drain tube leak when no other local mechanics could. Volvo wanted $1800 to fix it. The guy charged me a couple hundred to do it.

Replying to: unhappy99 (Aug 12, 2009 5:52 pm) Thanks, unhappy99. This morning I drove the car and verified that the coolant fan is cycling off and on, so at least the fan runs. The temp gage was in the normal position and when turning off the ignition, there was no buzzing sound, unlike yesterday (Also, no buzzing while running). The fan did not run after turning it off, but maybe it didn't need to.
#2330 of 2358 Volvo S80 Blower Fan by jrmy Jul 30, 2009 (5:37 am)
My 2001 Volvo S80 has started to have a problem. The blower fan on the heater / air conditioner will come on after the car is turned off even if the fan is turned down all the way. Anybody else have this issue? Replies to this message: volvomax (Aug 19, 2009 5:21 pm)

Replying to: jrmy (Jul 30, 2009 5:37 am) Not a problem, it is a normal function. It's called afterblow and it is designed to clear out water from the a/c coils. If it bothers you,the dealer can shut it off.
#2332 of 2358 Signal flasher stuck by unhappy99 Aug 22, 2009 (7:41 pm)
Hello,   I was driving last night, I made a right turn and the right signal flasher is stuck. It doesnt come off. I stopped the car and retried it but same. I tried moving it to get the left but nothing, so now only the right is on and it is on all the time. What could be the problem? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

Replying to: unhappy99 (Aug 22, 2009 7:41 pm) Open the fuses and pull out the stearing col fuse. I think its like 22 and count to 20 and put it back in. Good luck
#2334 of 2358 re: signal stuck by unhappy99 Aug 23, 2009 (7:12 am)
Many thanks Volvowalt. I will do that and reply.
