Hello, I'm getting ready to buy a volvo truck for long distance driving. I've heard horror stories about d12 engines, but I found a 2001 volvo 770 d12 engine with 400k miles. The rig is very clean with brand new tires and very well maintained. The truck is $12k. Second, I found a 2004 volvo...

hey. Just wondering what other d16 owners get for mileage and what coolant temps you run. Even with new thermostats and radiator I sit around 210 at 65-70mph empty or loaded. I have mid roof 07 vnl730. D16 535hp 13spd manual. Combined empty and 76-78000lbs loaded (usually around 60% loaded...

Hello all. Has anyone used a rear of bunk single antenna on one of these high rise sleepers with good results? I'm wary of the dual factory setup and had good results with back of bunk setup one midroofs. I pull flatbed so I have lots to work with as for mounting on my headache rack. Thanks.

I have an 05 volvo and I ordered foglights that came in today. The problem is the wiring on the foglights are the same female connector as what is on the wiring harness from the truck. Is there an adapter or something that I am missing? Volvo Truck Dual Double Fog Light Set With Bulbs DRL Vn Vnl...

Weird malfunction today. First I noticed that the intermittent /delay function wasn't working but it would work fine on high & low. So going in & out of rain, then only needing them after trucks passed me & sprayed my windshield, one time when I turned it off, they stopped in the middle of the...

Hey I have a 2010 Volvo & it has a parking heater located under the bed. Can anyone break down for me what exactly this is for? As the owners manual doesn't explain much on it.

By John Bendel, Land Line editor-at-large Volvo Trucks is asking for help to discourage the EPA and NHTSA from forcing truck makers to adopt Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) as a means to reduce greenhouse emissions and to increase fuel efficiency for trucks. Tony Greszler, Volvo’s vice president of...

I have a 2011 volvo, D13 engine, I-Shift, and while pulling the trailer uphill, I keep getting the Stop Engine Fault message. Everytime I pull over, I stop the engine, pop the hood and I can see the coolant boiling but the water temperature gauge doesn't go over 200degrees. I had it in...

2010 Volvo 670. Cummins 400. Kc area. What can I do as far as mods are concerned to increase fuel mileage? I've heard fleet 1 airfilters, free flow mufflers? Recomendations? Also, where can I go to get things like this installed? Obviously I can get an air filter in myself, but where...

Hello there, I have a problem with my semi which the mechanics I left the truck with can't find it but keep replacing different things. When I'm driving on the highway and its running just fine all of a sudden loses power and i can floor the gas but it can barely get to 50 m/ph and after a...

Has anyone ever tried to swap out the 896/886 bulbs with H11's? Supposedly they will fit, but I'm worried about the wattage difference. The standard bulbs are 37.5 watts, and the H11's are 55 watts. I'm worried that the light control module will react with the surge in wattage. Do I have...

Volvo VNL 04fan clutch solenoid energized all the time from the ecm on a cummins ISX Fan clutch solenoid energized all the time from the ecm. Already melted one solenoid. The new one stays hot around the clock unless I disconnect the batteries or remove the ecm plug. It doesn't go through a...

I will be buying an '06 630, and would like to know where I can find the owners manual for one? I only need it to figure out how to access the different things in the digital part of the dash. I'm buying it from a Peterbilt dealer, and of course, he has none. I have read the thread on here...

Just wondering if anyone knows if the new 780's come with a flat screen mount, or still the square cubby hole? I'm done with the ND oilfield bull.... And starting next week back OTR in a new 780. I had to get the most important stuff like tv mounting taken care of beforehand:-)

I was listening to Rutherford on XM and he restated that if he was buying a used rig right now he would go for 99 Volvo with a 12.7 and a 13 speed and 3.7 gears. I guess Volvo only had 12.7 in that year. Maybe 2000 too. I went on truck paper and filled in all the fields but nothing came up. But...

I am currently in the market to possibly buy a new truck in the Summer/Fall of 2014. May end up going used, but that is beside the point for now. If you were to buy a brand new truck (not a glider), and had the above 4 engines to choose from (obviously, a couple of the choices are going to...

AMAZING !!! The sunrise, the song, Jean-Claude Van Damme !!! You are hearing the voice of the Belgian actor, but you have the impression that the Volvo truck is talking ...... Wouldn't it be nice to see Steven Seagal performing the same stunt on two Cascadia's :)
