  • Presentation of mobile phone holder

    I was looking for a mobile phone holder for my moose, but I didn’t find anything. By chance, I came across holders that are mounted in the slot of the CD drive. The highlight is that you can still listen to the CD. The prerequisite is, of course, that there is already one in the shaft. The assembly is easy. I chose this model. I liked that the lateral holding brackets automatically close when the cell phone is inserted; no change of position. That’s what it looks like.

  • XC60 T5 VEA

    Hello! Last week, after only 6 weeks delivery time, my new XC 60 T5 VEA with 8-speed GT arrived. Actually I wanted the T6, but is only available at the end of the year. Before I had an XC60 D5 AWD (230PS) 6-speed GT (MJ 12), which was however too loud to me. Therefore the T5 with laminated glass is a benefit! Super quiet and spontaneous, a 6-cylinder I do not miss. Consumption with the first tank filling 9.2 liters (board computer shows 9.3 liters). So similar to the D5. e after some time fall below 9 liters. So, who is looking for a quiet alternative to diesel, is right here. Pictures of course also available… Kalli

  • Question about the Volvo V70 D5

    Hello in the round, currently I think about buying a Volvo V70 D5 (first registration – 2015 ) station wagon. I have already found some interesting offers on the net. Since I would like to do without certain equipment features I would like to have a question about retrofitting. All interesting offers so far where price / equipment and kilometers fit for me mostly lacks the “Totwinkel assistant ” this is personal already important to me. Can one buy this retrofit ? Since it could possibly become my first Volvo, and someone would still have hints or things to look out for in terms of the model, I am grateful for every tip.

  • V60 D3/D4 or V50 150PS Diesel purchase advice over 150,000km???

    Hello municipality, I’m thinking about getting a Volvo V60 D3. But it already has just over 150,000km on it. How long-lasting are these engines? First registration is 11/2010 Alternatively, I have a V50 2.0 150hp diesel in mind.

  • Volvo 850 Limousine 1st Series BJ.1991

    Hi, everybody! I’m about to buy a long sought-after car, namely a 850er as a limo in ruby red metallic with beige interior equipment, BJ. 91 The vehicle corresponds exactly to my idea in terms of colors and extras (e.g. glass sliding roof, AHK, climate, fog lights etc.) The mileage is 215 000. Since I don’t have much experience with the cars of the first series, I would be interested to know which weaknesses you have to pay particular attention to here, which is very difficult. (The KM counter has been broken recently, i.e. probably VDO, climate works) Thank you! PS: Was there 91 already the stainless steel entry rails as accessories, is the antenna always electric? The car should mature for a longer period of time to the oldtimer, therefore I aspire to the original condition

  • Valve shaft seals from Elring or rather original Volvo

    Hey guys, I want to go up to Hamburg soon and change my valve shaft seals with Markus. I had already ordered the material (VSD and Simmerrings) from Elring from a friend over the workshop. Markus advised me yesterday to the original ones of Volvo. I don’t want to question Markus’ advice here. I trust in his experience. But I have the things there and can’t return them without loss (20%). So I wanted to I don’t want to start the whole thing from the beginning after 20tkm. After the 2nd engine change in 1.5 years I (and especially my wife) have slowly enough work on the engine. Who actually produces the seals for Volvo. Thanks for the discussion. Janko

  • cold draught in passenger footroom

    Hey guys, are just on the highway and my wife is driving. Doesn’t happen so often that I sit right. Now I noticed that it’s cold in the passenger footroom. Even if the heater is on max.. Hot air comes from the nozzle, but if I continue the paneling towards the splash screen button, the cold air comes from there. I can feel something like a pipe or panel. Is such a problem known? Where does the cold train come from? Thanks Janko

  • Armature – Decor – Experience?

  • Climate control panel aperture V70

    Hello, I recently purchased a V70 TDI BJ 99, on which the center console was completely removed and made of wood an aperture for an ipad. Now, of course, I want to rebuild this and need the necessary parts. My question is this, can you change the air conditioning unit for the other one? There are apparently two different user parts for the V70. One with slider for the ventilation and one with rotary regulator. Have attached pictures.

  • Request for assessment: XC90 D5 OR

    A cheerful moooin from the neighboring forum! My senior is a bit bored after 25 years Audi from the brand and, after licking my V70 blood, shot himself on Volvo as next car. It is to be either an XC90 or XC70 III. I ask for your assessment of this XC90, which he has tested today and was quite pleased with. The car appears harmonious, has a decent equipment and the attractive Ocean Race variant, but I find the price approx. 2000 Eur o too high. For the amount you get also almost a more modern XC70 III with similar km-performance and EZ. What do you think?
