  • jerk and no power through V50 2.0D differential pressure sensor ??r

    Hello, My V50 2.0D BJ 2005 has now nearly 260,000 km down. With just over 240,000 I had the DPF extended, was then sent to a specialist company and cleaned. What my free workshop did not do is to replace the differential pressure sensor. Now I have read that this should definitely be done? About 10 days ago I had the unpleasant situation that after about 5km drive on the road, the Volvo suddenly took no more gas, power as in a R4, at Umin from 2000 the box was extremely ruckelten. After some kilometers I stopped, pulled the key, again in and again started, afterwards everything again normal. Now 1200 km ski holiday with roof box behind me, the problem did not occur again, however I had on a motorway ride, when I briefly drove about 170 km/h, a sudden “power hole” to the left, which is like a “hushing” or “swrinkling” to the left again, the problem was still present to me, what still happens to me, that the consumption can be about 0.3 km/h more than the current consumption?

  • Are there still satisfied XC90 owners ??

    Hello, say with all the horror news, about wear, repairs, rattles already after a few T-km, makes it still sense to buy an XC90 at all? Or should you leave your fingers off it? Just as this reads there is only Volvo scrap??????? Or write here in the forum really only the few who just had bad luck, how about every car brand??? Am really a little unsure! Greetings crea

  • Interior (C70II, V50 etc): Where to with candy papers?

    The interior of my C70II (probably very similar to the V50) shines with countless storage compartments – which are however very stupidly designed. Practically there is no ashtray. So where with candy papers, apple residues etc? Is there a suitable box for the space behind (direction motor) the center console? Or a use for the beverage holders? If you still want to be able to place two coffee tap cups, how do you do that? In the front a cup, then an ashtray/waste container and then still use a holder of those for the rear seats?

  • C70 – Automatically turn off air conditioning?

    Hello Together, as is well known, the operation of the air conditioning increases the fuel consumption. In addition, it is of course completely useless when the roof is open… I often drive long distances (>500-600 km). It happened to me often that I noticed only after 200-300 km that the air conditioning has tried to cool the surroundings of the car all the time. I can say that much I can say: She has not managed… Now I am looking for a way to switch off the air conditioning automatically when the roof is opened. Lt. mine there is no setting/programming for this. is that right? Do I have to live with it?

  • ATTENTION who drives XC70 without km/h limit

    my friend doesn’t want me to delete the 210 km/h limit at Heico, because a crossing of this magical limit could lead to an uncontrollable upswing / lift of the front axle / of the front axle (with the conceivable evil consequences) so who can understand these arguments … a responsible use of high speeds is already clear to me that you should not drive 230 in wind and weather, but a current break as in aviation I would not have guessed, rather a swing of the carross ( I have the 4C chassis, by the way.) it may also gladly answer T-diesel, even if they are somewhat limited in rotation… Grüsse Volvomania

  • RTI spins, heat or Lebanon conflict?

    In the last few days my RTI behaves a little brain-burning and seems to laugh to death if I also fall in on the wrong tips. But seriously: In the last few days the RTI has repeatedly indicated to me at intersections/entrances that I should still drive 450m (or comparable sizes) to the next turn, only then to tell me immediately after the intersection/entrance that I should have turned there and that I would have to turn now at XYZ m distance. Now we are certainly all only limited in the heat but RTIlein should suffer from this still least in the well air-conditioned XC. Can the accumulating errors possibly – please not laugh – a different alignment of the satelites for the present Middle East conflict be attributed or must I actually to the greeting, Frank – feels somehow entangled by the RTI

  • XC90 RTI spins (no longer)

    On the other hand, a few days ago, my RTI suggested a position that was about 40 km to the west. Route entries were possible but rather pointless, as the blue arrow moved mostly on the Rhine So Navi off – Navi: No success Current position showed me some place on this planet – satellite 0, later up to 8 pieces. Then drawer up, DVD out – DVD back in: result see above Then security No. 9 pulled and slept one night over. See there, the position was still wrong, but we had come closer to my real location by about 30 km – but this time moved towards the east “Current position” only indicated 0, finally 8 satellites. Another 5 minutes later the blue arrow was finally there where it belonged. Does anyone know this phenomenon? I have a similar report from XC-Fan in my eye …. Greeting Torsten

  • C70 2.0T with gas?

    Hello Elch municipality, I’m interested in a C70 I (as a coupe) have one in mind. Now I have a few questions to the “Heavy” user. On the one hand I would be interested in how it looks like with the attachments. In the advertisement it says that all possible attachments like Lambdasonde, brakes, throttles and also the timing belt were made in 2010. Is there something else missing? So cross handlebars, LiMa or maybe something else? (the car ran 120tkm) And then I would like to have it converted to gas, since I have already had good experiences with my V40. Has someone had experience there? Because that shouldn’t be quite uncomplicated with the turbo.

  • Noise from the underground

    Before someone asks: Yes, I have used the Sufu here, but not found anything ugly, what could fit – apart from ‘times fast’ gear oil change … Live in a nice settlement on/on’m mountain and recently I went down here with a window. By a wall, it struck me quite clearly, when I gave light gas: Baaah, what is that for a grinding noise ? Sounds gruesome / harmful ! Trit only when giving gas, so at load on – in the 1st m.E. relatively (very ?) loud, in the 2nd still clearly noticeable, in the 3rd is then already the rest drumherum louder. With window / slide roof too (and radio out) one listens to it in the car inside nix ! To say that this noise at increasing speed in the respective gear is still quieter than louder. Also it somehow does not play a real role, whether I ride up with a lot or little gas or only when rolling down the hill is not easy to get the pin all over again?

  • Who wants to live forever!!??

    Hey guys, I’ve been talking to you guys as a NOCH alive!! The feeling that you want to kill your own car isn’t so bad! Believe me!! Yesterday on the way from Hamburg to Berlin it was almost time that the party had to go on without me! I had to do a bad full braking on the left lane at a little over 180 km/h, which is already stupid enough with the discreetly undersized brake, but actually would have been feasible, my little Suicidebomber would have done that too! But unfortunately it was only a “half brake” !! To the sequence: I step on the brake and pull the crate to the right in a crash-like manner, counter-directed at 180° showed hardly any effect, the car starts to turn on itself quite fast, meanwhile I am already on the right track, the front picks up the control plank, my foot still misses the floor plate, and then I have been able to write it again today.
