The Twin Peaks intro treatment makes me happy. Two of my favorite things combined (Volvos & Twin Peaks)

Just got one on the Nov 1st and watching all videos S60 related. This is the best one I've come across. Completely showing the ins and outs! Thanks so much.

I'm in Florida I drive Volvos and have a New Mexico slap on my 88.. big love Taos, Santa Fe, Angel fire, Albuquerque 🏂

folding headrests also great for smacking unruly rear seat passengers in the head.

Thanks for sharing your experience. We love Volvo!

I feel pretty fortunate... I needed a car and we had a s60r sitting at the shop just needed the head fixed and a few other small things, previous owner put in $24,000 into it in the past 4 years, practically everything is new, got it for $800 its in great shape

This is the best S60 design hands down

I'm really pumped I found these videos, I have an XC70 from 2004 with 155K on it and everything suspension wise is going out at the same time.

I love the same thing about my v70. I love how quiet and smooth they are at high speed. Was recently on a short road trip with my friend and I just brought it up to 105 and cruised for a bit and my friend didn't even realize at first because of how smooth it was. Truly the perfect road trip vehicle.

Super excited to see what you do with it!

Yes I've been waiting for updates on the S60R! I'm honestly amazed with the condition of your car with the amount of mileage it has on it, I don't have any stitching issues in mine and the seats are in great condition for being 14 years old. Mine also has not had any electrical issues aside from the stereo knob being excessively bi-polar at times. It has 178k miles (granted 70% of that are highway miles going to and from work every day). So it really looks like the previous owner(s) either really beat that car up or unfortunately you just got a bad one of the bunch. Anyways I love that you are a part of the P2 R family now, and I'm looking forward to more videos on it!

You voice is insane! You need to be on radio!

wow E34 touring owner here and looking to get an S60R, cool videos keep them up!

Good video. Volvos are great cars.

Nice video! I also drive an '04 S60R... SapphiKap. So far no electrical problems. Struts will need replacement in the next year or so... Been working on reconditioning the leather seats. Also been working on dent removal using a glue puller. Thanks for the other tips on cleaning out the engine and I will be waiting on Part 2.

One day I am gonna restore my 2003 S60R.

First. Love the David Lynch theme of this video.

Loving the Twin Peaks theme. My 2004 S60 2.5t is still running strong, but I'm really jealous of your R. We seem to have the same exact interior. Hope it's treating you well man.

After watching those clowns on Shifting Lanes buy two R’s without learning a thing about them, I, so happy to see your restoration videos on this R. I’ve been lucky with my 2005 V70R, but it was lower mileage and I don’t drive it a ton. Only had normal maintenance items but I’m noticing an issue with it burning a little more oil than it did when I first picked it up 3 years ago. PCV passes glove test still, so I’m going to inspect the turbo.

The 4wd in the gravel with the front wheels spinning would possibly be the collar sleeve... the teeth on the 2003 and 2006 had some play in them. I replaced my collar sleeve with the 2007 version where the teeth were more precise. I am a little late to this video. But I miss my S60R dearly. Hope all your ladies are OK 👍

I totally agree about the blue color of the rpm and speedometer color

The Twin Peaks music intro makes in quite “nostalgic”

They twin peaks music makes this so much better I love it lmao😂😂

Nice car. We have the s60 t6s rdesigns. We mod them as well. Awesome cars

It’s great to see this project getting on its feet and a move on, I’m planning for something similar later this year or maybe next depending on how my S80 project does (I’m wanting to do a 2.4 manual s60, I want to work on NA before it’s complicated with turbos)

The only cons are bad turning radius and low front bumper??? Im gonna buy one of these pronto

Holy moly, that interior is quite rough, where did it spend its life, my S80 that is from 99 lived mostly in the Netherlands so definitely cooler climates and the stitching is fine for how old it is. How ever the suede inserts on the sports seats is super hard to find, do you know where to find replacement upholstery that is oem? I also have a working sunroof but there are plastic guides that are partially broken that lets it clunk about when you have it set to closed and is nerve racking when are on the freeway and hit a tiny bump and here it move about.

I'm surprised David that it appears that you have skipped a generation concerning your love of the marq. Could it be that there is some deep secret shrouding my beloved 850/V-70 series Volvos. The 850 was the car with which I was first introduced to the beauty of Volvo and all these many years later, is still my favorite. I'm a little older now than when I bought my first new Volvo and, unfortunately severally disable with various different ailiments to include Parkinson's. This does not allow me to work on my own vehicle although at one time, I was quite competent. There are a lot of positive things about living here in the North. Woods of New England but one of them is not what our extended winter weather and the assorted products the government uses on the roads do to automobiles. Tie that in with the fact that Volvo's do not have as of yet the following of say BMW or even Audi's up here, but rather one of utility such as say an old Ford P/U and the extremely high prices that mechanics charge for keeping what is essentially a 20 year old car with a foreign name attached to it and you can begin to scratch the surface of frustration on finding and or restoring one. However, I really enjoy both your and Roberts viedos and am positive that were I still able the videos would allow me to attack any problem that might arise. I would sure like to find one that someone such as you has put their loving hands on at a reasonable price. It would surly last me for the rest of my life. I found a '97 Volvo 850R in Chicago recently at an internet classic car sales location with what seemed to be a decent price but I could think of no one that having the proper knowledge of the subject such as you or Rob check it out so it soon found another home. Thanks again for helping me exercise my brain and whet my appitite with your videos. BTW, didn't you move to California or is it the other way around? May GOD Bless all of you out there.

David, just resolder the ABS module. Used module is a ticking time bomb, You'll have ABS/tracs problems sooner or later. Got to cut it open and glue it together afterwards. Other than that it's really simple, takes about an hour. Very common issue.

Armor All interior wipes did miracles on my S80 T6

Hey David, really informative and good quality video. I own an '07 S60, so it's quite cool to see different problems and how are you dealing with them, subscribed! What camera are you using for filming? Good luck with the restoration!

You should have a detailer come out and detail the car man. All of the leather issues can be fixed by them with dye and other products. They will make it look like new and if there are any minor scratches on the paint they can polish them out and make it look brand new! probably run you 200-400$ its worth every penny!

For brake Rotors and pads I know a great brand for daily and spirited driving, I have powerstop ceramic pads and drilled/slotted rotors, man do they hook up and they are quiet while giving off virtually not brake dust. They are fantastic upgrade over regular pads and rotors. I’ve had them for 3 months and I finally have started to see some dust on the rotors and it’s barely anything and they brake hard, they stop my car so well I have to be careful that I don’t trigger the ABS.

I could never take Volvo’s seriously because of crap fuel efficiency. I wanted to though, they’re gorgeous and so well thought through and I would love to get in one that has 35+ mpg.

Your rear speakers are probably working but they work differently in "Dolby Pro Logic" mode. This mode makes the rear speakers create echo or ambient sounds to enhance the music in the front (sorta like surround sound). So it will sound weird when this mode is on and you change the sound output to the rear speakers only. If you turn off "Dolby Pro Logic" by hitting "OFF" or "3-CH" on the head unit the rear speakers will just play the same sounds as the fronts.

Subbed ! I'm thinking your spent a lot of time in the sun and dried out the leather. My 04 R has blue stitching on the instrument cluster hood, looks more of a cream colour stitching on yours, you could get it recovered in alcantra and get blue stitching along with the centre console lid. I noticed the paint has worn on the centre console, I bought a new one for mine and it wasn't too expensive :)

I looove the Twin Peaks theme

I had the same problem with the brake on my s60 2.4 (non turbo :( ) it was only the sensor in the front driver side. Some times the space between the sensor is to short and touches the sensor, giving this issue.

was that ABS module swap as easy as it looked? I think I may need to do mine too lol

I had one of those,the cruise control broke and the handbrake was always seizing up,had a couple of new cables,pads etc.. kept doing it sooner or later.

im interested what is that gear shift clunk in left.....my car had annoyng clunk also in left position....something inside that tunnel or shifter mechanism?

those abs units have to be sent to xemodex or bbreman to be repaired. you cannot simply pull one of one car and stick it in another car. They have software loaded on them which are programmed to work with your specific car

The noise you hear when you go forward that metal clank. Is the axle ping, research it and replace it with the one with the bushing cost a little extra but it will definitely clear the metal pings from the axles, also don't forget to grease the axle Splines cause that will help later in life.

man I go super lucky, I bought a 2005 s60r manual, super fast for 9k, stay tuned for a video of my hot rod

my s60 has the same steering issue, also the trunk can only open with the key out of the ignition, really annoying. Also try using the magic eraser for the leather. Also my speaker grille is kicked in and the armrest is also broken in the same way.

dude, i would just come hang out with you and restore these all day. I love working on mine. love hate i suppose.

I got a 2006 s60 t5 m66. It got totaled. But engine and trany are A1. I want to swap it into another car but I dont want a s60r or something heavy like that. Do you have any idea what would be best?

That car was not taken care of that well. Hope they at least took care of the engine!

I'm looking at a 2004 s60r with 60k miles otc, but I'm beginning to be put off with all the reports of maintainance costs , advice plz ..

Not sure you saw the comment I put on your video previous to this one, but I linked your channel to an amino that I had made and wanted to make sure you were alright with that. It’s called Swedish cars (a social media)

Hi can any one help out i have a 2006 s60 d5 185bhp when i drive it hard it comes up soot fillter full and goes into limp mode. If you switch of and let sit for 5 mins it clears its self until drive it hard again. I have cleaned the egr out the best i could as was caked up with carbon. And i took o2 sensor of and srayed 1 can of dpf cleaner in it. ??

👍👍👍

At 0:31 - 0:32 it looks just like "Toothless" in 'How to Train Your Dragon!!'

Hello can someone give me an idea, my abs light & check engine light is on, i just changed the timing belt kit & car is running . Car was sitting for a while i belive, last owner told me it needed a speed sensor & o2 Speedometer does not work, & my radio , & 4c suspension does not work either

ive replaced a rad from that "low bumper" , it hits the secondary intercooler, then backed into the rad, and broke a plastic side off, gushed fluid everywhere instantly. ... i barely touched the block. grrrr. love my R tho haha

worst part of my s60 2.5t is the turning radius with the 17" rims! otherwise I would never think of selling.

I’m looking at an automatic one here this Friday. Sadly cannot find any manuals even though I’m not really adept at them. What are a list of things to inspect aside from bushings, bearing, pcp or pcw?

RIP haldex module. Possibly. It seems like the P2R likes to burn them out. Out of the 3 I owned, only 1 of them had good AWD. The others burned out the module.

What are the three buttons on your sun visor for? My right hand drive Australian S60R doesn't have them. Also Volvo recommends using '3 channel' and not using 'Dolby surround' with FM radio as it distorts the rear speakers.

Hi, what size wheels? . thanks.

14:50 Exhaust headers are meant to go at the other end of the car. 😂

Any issues with the front angle gear? I'm looking into purchasing an '06 S60R with 117k on it. It seems like a decent car for the money but I'm afraid of costly repairs. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey man, where did you get the R key fob? It looks great!

double pane glass on side windows is not great for safety if your car is in water.

Where can I get engine for S 40 RT if any body know let me know

Where in ABQ are you yaking your car, i was going to Clockwork before Jim split.

The fuzzy wuzzys in the return might be foam and its supposed to be there.

s70 T5 (97) / s40 T4 (2002) manuel / s40-T4 (2002) Automatic / S60 T5 Automatic (2005) / S60 R (2007) Automatic 20 year Adventure with Volvo / Hint for Admirer : Volvo loves man who can spend money for her...

i've the same clunk noise in my volvo v50, been told steering racks aren't great in them

What’s the rpm when cruising at 100-120kph

Which YEAR is this vehicle??

Fuck I need one of these 😍

Seafoam is for 2 stroke engine's

Possessing spare parts is not ironic.

Restoration?

That’s detailing?

We live in sand we got grooves the size of your finger

fukin electricals on these p2s are a nightmare

Learn about detailing for your next phase, proper techniques work better

04 R is one of the worse to get, 06-07 is what you want
