#77 of 79 CEL-Low CatCon Efficiency by curtcharlespdx Apr 11, 2009 (2:38 pm)
2000 V70R, 56K miles. Runs super. Check Engine Light (CEL) is mostly on, occasionally off. OBD II reads "Low Catalytic Converter Efficiency". We replaced the CatCon (with a cut-rate aftermarket) but CEL was still on/off as before. Re-installed the original equipment CatCon. Suggestions on what to try next? O2 sensor? Front or rear one? Other?

#79 of 79 Valve Cover Gaskets by mk2rock Oct 07, 2009 (7:34 am)
Good day, I have a 2000 XCV70 that is leaking oil. local mechanic put a dye at the last oil change, and is now indicating that the valve cover gaskets are leaking. I read some where that these models do not have gaskets but a special sealant, and this is a major undertaking. Is this correct? Or are there in fact gaskets that can be easily repalced,,, Any help is appreciated
