Expert Answers about Volvo C30


  • Roof Rack Recommendations for a 2011 Volvo C30 with Naked Roof
  • Yakima does not have a roof rack fit for the 2011 Volvo C30 with a naked roof but we do have other roof racks that will fit. If you are looking for a more low cost option then I recommend the Rhino-Rack roof rack with Euro-style crossbars using the following parts: Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 Ditch brackets # RRRDM01 Feet # RRRLKVA Custom clamp kit # DK452

  • How to Connect 7-Way Connector on 2012 Volvo C30 with 4-Way Flat Connector on Trailer
  • I spoke with my contact at Hopkins who said that technically the Adapter 7 Pole to 4 Pole # 47345 would work in-line with your 13-Pin to 7-Pole connector so that is an option, but if you plan on towing your trailer more than just a few times there are a few other options for you that would be better. The first option is to install a 4-Way Flat connector on your 2012 Volvo C30. For that you would need the Curt part # C59236. This splices into your tail light wiring and receives power via...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2011 Volvo C30 R Design
  • I will be happy to help you with all the parts needed to tow the rental trailer with your 2011 Volvo C30 R Design. I spoke with my contact at Curt and he said that while they haven't tested hitch # C11337 on an R-Design C30 they also have not had any calls from customers or installers saying that it wouldn't fit. So based on that and the fact that the rear fascia, though different in appearance on the R-Design, isn't any lower than on the base models, the hitch should fit the R-Design...

  • Recommended Bike Rack for E-Bikes on a Class I Hitch
  • I have a solution for you. It's the Thule EasyFold XT, part # TH903202. This bike rack is compatible with Class I receivers, can hold 2 e-bikes up to 65 pounds each, and works with 1-1/4" receivers. Many times Class I receivers cannot accept racks made for higher-rated hitches. The only obstacle would be the step-thru features of your bikes. For that, you can use a bike adapter bar like the Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter Bar for Women's, Children's, and Alternative Frame Bikes, part...

  • Anti-Rattle Adapter Recommendation For Curt Hitch When Using Adapter
  • The anti-rattle adapter I recommend is the No-Rattle Trailer Hitch Wedge, part # MPG908. This will work for 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch receivers and is designed to insert into the small gap that may exist on your receiver. You then tighten it up after it has been installed on the hitch pin as the attached photo shows. This should reduce the rattle and movement you have been having.

  • Does Curt Hitch part # C11337 Fit All Models of 2011 Volvo C30
  • It looks like your 2011 Volvo C30 may have a different trim level on it than the vehicle in our install video. But since the Curt Hitch part # C11337 that you referenced is a fit for all models of the 2011 C30 we know this hitch will fit your vehicle and work fine.

  • Will an Engine Oil Cooler Help Bring Down Engine Temperature on a 1970 Plymouth Cuda
  • The Derale Stacked-Plate Engine Oil Cooler, # D15604, that you mentioned would be a good addition to help cool the engine oil in your 1970 Cuda. An oil cooler like # D15604 should provide you with a drop in your water temperatures. Most likely it would be a drop between 10-20 degrees but it really depends on the vehicle and how much airflow the cooler gets. I would recommend checking the specifications for cooling your specific 5.7 liter Hemi engine and going with the manufacturer recommendation...

  • Recommended Roof Rack And Wind Fairing For 2008 Volvo C30
  • for your 2008 C30 I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Roof Rack. This is one of the quietest roof racks on the market because of the rubber Vortex rubber insert in the track on the crossbar. For this roof rack you will need part # RRVA126B-2, part # RRRDM01, part # RRRLKVA, and part # DK452. It is best to keep the sun roof closed when the roof rack is installed whether it is empty or loaded. Even though every effort is made to make this roof rack quiet, the wind hitting the crossbars...
