What is the correct name for the front drive shaft after the two CV joints that houses a spider assy slide joint/coupling on one end and the engine drive train?

That is just the end of the CV axle. There is a boot that keeps it mounted to the spider bearings. When you buy the axle, it will come with this part attached. The bearing may be optional though.

The Key FOB is stuck in the ignition. How can I get it to eject?

Most if not all vehicles have a Electronic Park Lock (EPL)/Ignition Lock Cylinder Control Actuator: If the vehicle is equipped with automatic transmission and a floor mounted console gear shift, it has an ignition lock cylinder control actuator system in the steering column. The ignition lock cylinder control actuator purpose is to prevent the ignition key from being turned to the OFF position when the transmission is in any position other than PARK and the vehicle may still be moving. The column ignition lock system consists of an ignition lock cylinder control actuator, and a park position switch that is located in the automatic transmission shift lock control switch. The ignition lock cylinder control actuator contains a pin that is spring loaded to mechanically prevent the ignition key cylinder from being turned to the lock position when the vehicle transmission is not in the PARK position. If vehicle power is lost, and/or the transmission is not in the PARK position the operator will not be able to turn the ignition key to the lock position and will not be able to remove the ignition key from the column. Or it has Linear Shift Assembly: If the vehicle is equipped with a column mounted gear shift, it has a linear shift assembly on the steering column. The linear shift assembly has a cable that runs from the linear shift assembly to the ignition lock cylinder case. The purpose of this cable is to prevent the ignition key from being turned to the OFF position when the transmission is in gear and the vehicle may still be moving. The linear shift assembly cable contains a pin that is spring loaded to mechanically prevent the ignition key cylinder from being turned to the lock position when the vehicle transmission is not in the PARK position. If vehicle power is lost, and/or the transmission is not in the PARK position the operator will not be able to turn the ignition key to the lock position and will not be able to remove the ignition key from the column. Your best bet is to take it to a ASE certified repair shop or the dealer ! The fix involves taking the steering column apart an or the floor shifter assembly ! Also electrical test to determine what is the problem ! Your

If timing belt has cracks, replace it. If it breaks, your valves bend like silly putty. Otherwise explain your problem more thoroughly.

Window will not go up

Front window? Replace the sliders and grease the tracks with WHITE LITHIUM GREASE. If the regulator arms aren't bent, it should work fine. Typically the arms on the regulator are bent. If that's the case where the arms can't be straightened, a replacement regulator is about $100 on ebay.

What size wrench is used to remove a front brake caliper?

I am VERY sure that they were 17mm. You can park your car with the steering turned all the way to one side and reach in with a wrench and find out which one fits. The lug studs are 19mm. I'll attach a helpful video too.

2001 Volvo s80 .I closed the sunroof now it won't open

Check the fuse. If that is good then try listening for the motor trying to operate. If you can hear the motor trying to operate then you must have a stuck sunroof.
