So I’m driving a S80 D5 since 3mon. And I thought…you can put the summer tires on it and everything will be fine. Nix is good ..at 140 KM/H he blows…new exhaust holder…no change. From 160 KM/H the soundscape is as strong as I would have never expected from a “premium” car. Before E class W211 …leise slipping along up to 200 speed. Then CLK Cabrio ..at tempo 160 about exactly as loud with a closed fabric roof as the S80. Is the box generally so loaded with wind and rumbling noise, or did I have only bad luck? Unfortunately my friend did not have a comparison vehicle to test. If so, Volvo is still light years away from the premium. The Honda from my wife is quieter by length of speed. Conclusion: 3 hours. Autobahn over 150 km/H is a goal tour.

Overhaul cylinder head leaks
Hello dear screwdriver. Today I installed my new general overhauled cylinder head that I had purchased for 400 euros. At my golf tdi the tooth strap is torn. There are 2 valves bent therefore the new head. Case had nothing off. After the installation of the acquired head I started the engine. It ran perfectly. After a few minutes running I determined that the new head is leaking. Delayed. See photo. Do you know what the sealing can do? Oil comes out at the return. I thought of atmosit housing seal…. I was curious about your answers and assistance. I could of course dismantle the head again but what is associated with a lot of work.

Type 122 industrial engine
Hello, I have a little problem with the above engine. It is installed in a load-bearing syringe 8/8 from 1962. The problem is the following: After about 1h under nominal load during water transport, the engine goes out and cannot be cranked up. Only when it is cold again (as several hours later) does the whole thing go again, then it runs perfectly again. Until the next hour is over… Is this due to the installed magnet ignition? Does the spark no longer produce any more due to the heat and decreasing magnetic strength? How can I get help? The TS is not used, but should remain operational due to the low operating hours.

Skipped the timing belt?
Did the camshaft wheels escape at the B 4204S – 2,0 (old dog with 148 teeth) before the timing belt disassembly, so that I can fix them with the adjustment line. The plug-off pin that comes in behind the starter to block the crankshaft, however, does not block anything there as soon as the camshaft wheels are aligned – at most my mood, because I have the feeling that the crankshaft is still at least 1/4 revolution (more) too far behind when the camshafts are already correctly aligned. Can it be that the ZR has skipped the previous owner? I noticed nothing of sloppy engine power so far. Only when it is very low in the speed cellar, it has a single offset from time to time when the accelerator is being accelerated, but what I returned to the old candles. Cold as well as warm the engine is so far clean and soft. How far can the position of the KW deviate to the normal position without taking any damage to the valves or head? As I said – it is the impression, it is not delivered at all.

Fog closing persons without function V40 Bj.98
Hello everyone. I have a V40 Kombi Bj.98. I am despairing at the fog closeer even though there is good information about it here. But maybe someone has the serious tip for me. The said lamp does not want to funze. I was allowed to try out the light switch from a Volvo V40 Bj. 97 just arrived at the scrap yard, but without success. There is no click, no visible lamp in the display from the tacho and of course no juice arrives at the rear. However, I have an AHK and an ECHTEN ELCH. That means it burns immediately light, as well as I turn on the ignition!!! Now my question has someone the IDEE?? which cable color to the rear light should I look (eventual break?) so that I can exclude the next error? in 4 days I have to present the elk again at the tuv. In advance thanks to the elk father I have a V40 Kombi Bj.98.

BSR PPC etc
Hi! since I am thinking of taking this step, I would ask you to share some of your experiences with me. I also try to squeeze out the German BSR dealers on extended warranty. I have to understand that one and the same box is offered by BSR in Germany at a wide variety of prices. Are all the same, or are there older versions at cheaper prices? Email Lexmaul Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I am interested in the Volvo C30 T5 stage 1 tuning. That these devices are not produced by you is an open secret, but not why the device costs with them almost 50€ more than with BSR and with BSR is still a 2 year warranty….? How does the price difference come, are the boxes not identical to the construction, or something else not apparent changed? mfg ————— Many greetings

Swedish summer elch?
Hello together, after my V50 (D5, BJ 207) was in the garage for about 10 days on holiday, the battery didn’t want to go this morning. In my garage, during the low outside temperatures, it had a maximum of -2°C (5 bubble boxes in the same garage, the temperatures survived without damage) and a adjacent BMW X3 (diesel, with 5 years old battery) had no problems and fortunately was able to get started. How should such a car in Swedish Lapland (where -30°C are normal) work? Or is one already on “Chinese quality” with Volvo? Weak picture! Greeting and beautiful Christmas chiflado

C30 Callback action
Moin moin, I received a letter from him on Friday. In it I is informed that my C30 is affected by a recall action. I should make a half-hour appointment with just this one, so that the affected part can be checked. Nice, that they tell me already what it is about… After I called here today, they didn’t know much about this recall action at first, only thought that they had probably come up new and had to ask someone else first. Said in turn. It came out that it was the engine fan (which,how,how,usw. was not said). Think that I will take the one this week to the workshop and then see what will happen if someone already knows what should not be with it. I drive a C30 with EZ: 01/07, but only since 08/08 in my possession. MfG Puhdy

Cover problems C70
Hello together, I have opened the cover again today after the winter and already there were the first problems. The cover opens and closes already, but two things have occurred to me: 1. The loading aid function is no longer possible, i.e. when I press the yellow button in the trunk with the cover opened does nothing more…. In the autumn this went still impeccable. Has anyone had this from you? If yes, what was the problem? 2. In the trunk cover is a felt covering inside. This always tangles with the retracting cover made of plastic, which is in open condition between the headrests and the actual boot cover. This inside felt cover is fixed in the lid with small plastic clips, which are constantly lost by the hooking, because it rips off the cover. A clip costs 8 €! These would still be of interest to me, but the problem remains. Why does this felt cover always tangle on the inner cover? Slowly bothers me, because the scratch cover also has to interrupt the cover.

Wheel change at V50???
Hello, yesterday I tried to change my winter bikes with my Volvo myself, because I didn’t get an appointment in the workshop at short notice. It’s not the first time that I changed wheels with different cars, but never as unsuccessful as with the V50!!! When I released the five wheel nut and cranked up the car, the bike was still bomb-proof, so I couldn’t take it off. My suspicion that I had to solve the mother in the middle of the hub was also wrong – I hope I didn’t make a mistake… Can someone give me a tip on what I have to do and change the wheels!?
