A fine example of the commitment of the Volvo brand to the integration of conventional rear-wheel-drive, modern engineering, and luxury sophistication is the Volvo 960, first presented in 1991 as the new flagship in the executive segment. The Volvo 960 was available as either a sedan or an estate with a 2,770 mm wheelbase and a length of 4,844–4,871 mm (when not restrained), a width of 1,750–1,760 mm and a height of 1,410 mm (sedan model) to 1,435 mm (wagon model) with heights as much as 1,438 mm at the wagon's rear where it rested on the bumper. The Volvo 960 came with only Volvo modular all-aluminum inline-six whiteblock engines (such as 2.5L and 3.0L DOHC) like those in the 940, unlike the earlier model's four-cylinder redblock mainstream engines. There were also early models that offered a 2.4L turbo. Transmission options were 4-speed automatics and manual transmissions, but larger engines usually had an automatic-only offering. One major upgrade was the 1995 revision featuring the rear suspension of all models that contained self-leveling software and even in some models, a composite transverse leaf spring to enhance handling and user comfort. This scientist became better when compared to the previous system that was found in limited vehicles in early sedans. Also, differentiating the 960 was high-end interior features, additional sound insulation, and a visual freshening of the car in 1994 that further highlighted the Volvo 960.

The Volvo 960 poses some of the most typical problems with respect to various mechanical systems. The front end of the Volvo 960 suspension system usually makes a knocking sound when the sway bar bushings are worn. Fix this problem by replacing the worn-out or failed sway bar bushings to restore the normal performance. On the electrical system a failure of the gear position sensor may result in a no-start condition and a Check Engine Light. A productive solution to this problem is to replace the 960 sensor to eliminate the starting problem. Finally, the Volvo 960 has a problem because its braking system is subjected to the vibration of the rear brake rotors. This is particularly the case when doing excessive braking or even on hilly slopes. As the remedy, the Volvo 960 brake pads and rotors are to be replaced, and special shims are to be installed. All of these concerns emphasize the need to maintain the vehicle and repair it on time so that the Volvo 960 can work as expected and remain safe. It is worth responding to these issues early enough to avoid more harm and to improve the driving experience.

  • Q: How to replace the ignition lock cylinder and ignition switch assembly on Volvo 960?

    The ignition lock cylinder/switch is a unit that will have to be replaced in its entirety. For the 240 Series, it's mounted to the steering column which requires steering column removal. Steps include removal of battery, airbag, steering wheel and controls, change of ignition lock assembly and reassembling components and checking for faults.
  • Q: How to test the performance of a starter using a voltage drop test on Volvo 960?
    A:
    To check how well the starter is functioning the voltage drop test with a fully charged battery should be done. A drop below 11.5 volts indicates high resistance with connections and cables needing to be checked. If components are functional the starter may be faulty. For removal, remove cables, bolts and install the new starter with proper torque.
