  • new heat exchanger clatters !?!

    Hi Leutz, wanted to change my heat exchanger yesterday. When I unpacked the new (Behr) I noticed that something is clapping in the WT when you shake it. Sounds like there’s a loose part flying around in it. However, since I can’t imagine at my best that there should be something in there that could be clapping, I wanted to ask the experts reading here to confirm if I was right before I do stress at the supplier. I can’t see what that could be. , and you can turn the part, turn it around, shake it… .etc as you want, it won’t come out. So, can that be that there’s a loose part in the WT, which actually belongs in there, or has nothing to clatter as I suppose? Thank you and nice Sunday, pierre

  • V70 II: Turning circle once 10.9 m or 11.9 m why?

    Hello Volvo friends, I have recently been V70 II driver. Super car. The bearded 5-cylinder with 163 hp is a force. Only the big turning circle is annoying. I came across the fact that there is also the 163 hp diesel in a 2001 catalog with 10.9 m turning circle when I browse old catalogs. From 2003 no more. Now at 11.9 m. Does anyone know the technical backgrounds? Ride the 16-inch serial car with 205 year-round tires. Martin

  • Omega B 2.5 V6 cylinder head overtake ????

    Hello to all experts and screwdrivers I will have some questions in the next few days because I decided to open my engine. He has been having quite a bit of trouble lately. However, since I am still very attached to it 🙂 I also want to invest something and drive it for some time. The first question I have is the special tool for this engine. Because I am well equipped for such things only this engine is after all something more special than normal 4 cylinders. I know that I already need special things for the timing belt. E.g. the camshafts & crankshafts blocking (is already ordered), but where can I get the adjustment instruction for the control times?? so that I can adjust the steering rollers??? hope someone can help me further… LG Benny

  • I wait and wait and wait – delivery deadline exceeded Volvo XC60 2014 and 2015 respectively

    I ordered a Volvo XC60 MJ2014 Kinetic D3 Geartronic at the end of March as an EU import. As a non-binding delivery time, 10-12 weeks were mentioned by contract. From the beginning of July I started to ask the dealer and was constantly comforted. The car would have to come at any time, it could not take long. At the end of July I got the information by e-mail that the car was scheduled for delivery and would arrive on September 23rd. However, I would receive the model 2015. Since then I have reacted No one can answer my questions at the dealer. Mails are not answered, on telephone inquiries I am told that the clerk is on vacation and that I cannot be informed. The car can roll to the yard every day but you would not get any information from Volvo when exactly that happens. O-Ton, if that is not enough for me as an information, I can now and immediately withdraw from the purchase contract by telephone. problem – my old car doesn’t have a green environmental badge and I can’t drive it in the inner city anymore (live in the middle of the Ruhr area, so almost all the environmental zone), the Tüv has now also expired and I expect him a child a few days and can’t take care of a replacement car after that. This to explain why I’m really sitting here on hot coals!!! You all have no glass ball, I know, I’m more interested in an assessment of my location: Is it possible that the delivery of the Volvo is delayed really so long? Do the dealers get no intermediate information from Volvo, when the car rolls out of the factory gate? Since when is the version 2015 delivered? I have found contradictory information on the net. I would be grateful for an assessment!!!

  • Brake pads EBC?

    On the other hand, as slowly as I have to think about new brake pads in front, brake discs 300 mm. Normal ATE are certainly not a bad choice, but I also think about ATE Ceramic, wg. less brake dust. Furthermore, I have read about EBC pads in various forums, Black stuff or Green Stuff, which should also produce less brake dust. Someone already had relevant experiences with the S/V60? Oh, brake discs are still ok, I’m just talking about the pads. Greetings from the Bergis , Ralph

So I got the car today in Dortmund and drove towards Mittelhessen-Marburg, all 1a so far, only if you push the S Tase and accelerate in sport mode times, say a kickdown, starts the S Tase to blink and he switch no more… then e.g. if you drive stand still zb.3. or 4th driving stage on… but I didn’t really start because I don’t want to do that to the gearbox…. When you restart your car everything is top…you don’t keep your fingers off the sports button blinking!!!! WHAT CAN THAT BE??????? Thank you for your help 🙂

  • Driver door does not always close when locking with remote control

    Hello I’m still reporting with a second request. So as already mentioned in the other topic: www.motor-talk.de/forum/tankdeckelschloss-defect-t1707189.html my father has a Volvo V70 II. In addition to the tank cover problem there is the following problem: When locking with the remote control you often have to try 2-3 times, until the driver door is closed. The button then often simply stays up. iden (that’s what you call the gentlemen in the blue man, or) not around! If so, what could be the cost and where is probably the cause? Thank you for your help!!

  • Ad Blue pump broken

    After 4 months ago the Dieselkat for ‘dezente’ 1k7 teu had to be replaced, now comes the next hammer: the adblue pump has the service acknowledged (or only crystallised) what abe means the same: complete Adblue tank unit new, pump gives net separately and is also net disassembled, costs 1k3€! And now the Oberhammer: Delivery time uncertain, no one knows nothing exact net! This is the Absolute Obergau, DDR 4.0!!! Now I have to delete all 1000km to the workshop 1x error, because otherwise after 1200km ‘Game over’. That doesn’t seem to be an unknown problem with Stellantis, a customer of mine has a jumper with exactly the same problem, there the delivery ‘only’ took 8 months 🙁 For ‘happiness’ this is my 4m car. If I retire next year, everything is definitely out of Stelantis!

  • Car rental Opel Grandland

    Moin, I currently have a rental car from the Grandland, because my Focus Mk3 had a rear impact and is in the workshop. I’m not really thrilled…. – The radio makes you crazy: connect Bluetooth, ignition off and on again, radio. Time and again, as soon as you interrupt the ignition, it jumps back on radio and does not stay in Bluetooth. You get crazy about it when this happens every time you ride. – Is there actually noc in 2022 (ok, or year 2020 or so) h Cars that can’t open and close all 4 windows with a long pressure on the remote control? Yes, the Grandland. – Speaking of windows: What’s this design, where the driver’s door gets the lowered disc 5 mm high when it’s completely down, and thus presses at the elbow? – The tank watch does what it wants: After 100 km and a little down at once again to completely full and after full fuelling then 3 mm below maximum. OK, that may be a defect and not a design problem. – The three-cylinder noise feels funny in such a large SUV, but the car can’t be anything like that. – Terrible plastic snare on the door handles. Positive: -Fries well, brake well, looks good, that’s fine, but the details up there are rather strange for a modern car.

  • My French pile of screws…

    My dream car is a nightmare!!! I don’t know where to start, maybe with what wasn’t broken yet? Purchased in 2009 at the dealer’s first hand 68000km 407 SW 2,0 136hp back then already replaced the first wing joint just before!! Ok I can’t list the repeats by order anymore but here’s the overview: -> 4 new support joints on the front axle in change right and left -> new axle driver side -> new drive shaft because this gives me while driving och war!! ->new cooler -> new clutch -> error exhaust gas (secondary air filter ) -> right now a new servo pump is coming in, and with the brake light switch something is wrong. -> constantly any errors in the display that are mostly not correct… My question am I an isolated case?? To the info of the car has now run in 5 years almost 100000 with us.
