V70 T5 SE

[Mangante]

I have recently purchased the above and wanted to know if anyone had any ideas in regards a couple of faults on the car. They were mentioned at purchase and I knocked the price accordingly.
The sunroof does not open and although the whole motor was replaced it still is not working.
Also the rear washer although wiper is fine.
Any help would be great.

Rear Washer: Is there no jet of fluid? Or is it some other problem? If there isn't any fluid coming out, consider that some of the hoses may have come undone.

I'm not sure how removed the V70 is from the 850 these days but it has happened to me the odd time. In the boot, lift the floor panel to the right of the spare wheel panels (approaching from the rear of the car). There should be a black hose underneath, it may be possible that where one hose joins another, they have come apart. If so, join together, test and replace floor panel again.

Hope this helps.

Yep - exactly the same as an 850 and they all pop the hose off - a simple cable tie around the hose on the joint cures it

As for the sunroof - did they change/check the fuses and relays? additionally check the dash mounted switch with a multi meter to make sure it is working
