Fort Worth, Texas

Hello, all! I have an interesting one for you guys.

I am not the owner of this car, the owner is a favorite older customer of ours that has done business with us for years. He has a V70R for sale!

Some quick points about the vehicle:

  • 2004 Volvo V70R in 426 Silver Metallic (I am unsure of the actual name of the color) and the Black interior
  • 17 inch Pegasus R Wheels (immaculate condition, pictures included)
  • Just under 248k miles
  • Current owner has had the car since 90k miles, 2 owner car
  • All service and maintenance completed by Autobahn Volvo Fort Worth
  • IPD stamped aluminum belly pan
  • IPD downpipe, the oxygen sensor had to be re-configured but is fully operational
  • IPD single Large intercooler replacing the original, smaller 2-intercooler system
  • Oil changed every 3500 miles
  • ZERO collisions with other vehicles. However, the previous owner's wife side-swiped their garage door with the FR door, resulting in a total replacement with a new FR door and obligatory paint match, completed by a Volvo-Certified facility

Pictures of the car will be included in my next post. The gentleman wants roughly 12k for the car. I recognize that this price is on the far right side of the pricing scale, so if any reasonable offers are presented, I will put you in touch with the gentleman that owns the car.

Honestly I'm unsure at the moment, the gentleman was dropping it off for service. I'm not saying that there isn't potentially something going on by any means, but I am a little ignorant when it comes to these older Volvos; is there any chance that light is on because the door was open? I believe cars from other brands at that time did something similar, not sure if that's the case with Volvo.

Tach says it's idling.

Legit trying to help here. Anyone in the private market seeing that red triangle is either going to be scared away, or see a huge opportunity & something that could be simple might end up costing the seller 4 figures off a potentially better price. It's likely in everyone's interest to get the car on Volvo diagnostic software & get the exact reason for the red.

My 04 XC has a red triangle for door open. I wouldn’t worry about it.

Red triangle for door open is an 04 thing. When I bought mine years ago I had this exact concern when the owner sent me photos. It was the door. 05+ it's yellow for door, which is obviously more logical.

Must be an '04 thing!

Thank you guys for helping to clear that up! The gentleman hasn't had a chance to stop by yet, so it was nice being able to tell him not to waste a trip!
