  • Problems with the starter

    Volvo V60, D4, built in 2017, manual gearbox Hello, someone has an idea or experience: I just got this VOLVO, with the hint: “Appearer turns partly free; otherwise great car and good price, I decided to take it and tackle the problem. I. Starter After pressing the start button you hear a quiet click from the engine compartment. If you press the start button longer the noise comes several times. The onboard instrument says that the mot or is started. But nothing happens. – The car cannot be started by starting aid; – The car can be towed and then starts well despite minus temperatures and then drives perfectly. I don’t think it’s the battery, since the starter does nothing even after 60 km of highway. Has anyone ever had this problem, and what was the solution? II. Battery / start aid / towing – Can there be consequential damage by towing this model (D4, manual gearbox)? – We tried the starting aid first about plus and mass. Since the mass of any body parts was doubtful, then also directly at the minus pole of the battery. (Is wrong, I know now). Now I have the message described in the manual: Low energy level, energy saving mode … Has anyone ever had this and got away again? Are there possible consequential damages that you should have in mind? Thanks already for thinking about it …

  • Bye Volvo

    Hello Volvisti, after 5 years 2 XC90 with a total of almost 300,000 km I leave the brand. Although I still like the XC90 and look for the same in terms of family friendliness and space, I want to be a little more sporty again. I like the new V70 very well, but also has the “Volvo” problem. After some test drives of other premium manufacturers, the Volvo automatic is in my personal ranking in the last place. The D5 can’t really compete with the current 3 litres of diesels in Pukto acceleration and, above all, pull-through. I’m not looking for a racing car (The X3 with the 280 hp 3 liter diesel it clearly too sporty), but Volvo is not really an ALternaive to the other premium manufacturers. It’s also interesting that the new V70 in the leasing rate is hardly a thing of the past. This is where I get more permium for the money at the Audi. I have never had a decision for a new car so hard. I finally wish the Volvo bought a modern automatic and equipped the diesel according to the standard. Let’s hope that the Audi quality can keep up with that of the Volvo, at least it is faster. Best regards bom Blufi, who is very excited about what is waiting for him in the new beautiful world of the Audi.

  • Settings Program Flasher/ Light

    Hello! is there any possibility for the V70/S70/C70 to program such functions as continuous driving light, turn signal control of the radio remote control etc.? In the V40 this is possible in Vida if I remember to program quite well about the CEM. But the C70 does not seem to have a CEM at all, right? Am I just looking at the wrong place or is it not possible? I have seen a U.S. C70, since the turn signalers were activated as SMLs, besides he had a warning tone when the light was switched on, i.e. v I expect that the light setting of the stand light is not connected to the ignition either, as with my… so I assumed that maybe you could just program that? Thank you!

  • Find suggestions for my Volvo

    Hello, I bought a Volvo 850 Bj 94 420tsd Km for 350€. I’m not sure if I should get it ready for me (screw it yourself) or sell the items. It would be nice if I could get some more decision-making impulses. Thank you! The positive things: clutch, timing belts made last year. Engine purrs like a 1, it has a working gas system. The challenges: cylinder head seal must be made, diue wheel hub front right, the lamp with the Lambda sign lights up, the track has to be adjusted and in the front leg there is such a rubber bellow loosely in it (I think something has to be done). Is that worth it with such a counter stand? What do you mean? Greetings Michael

  • New Opel Coupe

    Hi, a future Opel Coupe has been confirmed for a long time now. Has anyone any further information about it. That only thing that comes to my mind is that it will be built on the basis of the Astra i. I’d rather use the insignia base so that you can compete against the A5 and the 3 Series Coupe.

  • XC 90 catastrophic engine damage

    Hello, I would like to point out that I am still free with my XC 90 D5 switch (12/05), nevertheless I would like to share an experience with the community. Sunday after Ascension, My wife with 2 children on the A11 return trip Rügen-Berlin. After 4 hours of leisurely driving in a one-lane motorway construction site suddenly stuttering engine, funny noises, no more gas. There were no standing spreads, so stopped, got out, behind the car a huge oil track. Moto r no longer starts, gear shift “fixed” (OK, starting attempt could have been saved…) Result: full lock of the highway, 30mk traffic jam, my wife and the children arrive 3 hours later squeaky-fitted on an ADAC truck. Volvo-Assistance very friendly and competent, car is towed to the workshop on Sunday evening, car rental (BMW 318, could also have had a RAV4) by courier. Workshop: after 2 days “It is the vacuum pump, we order a new one”. Today: “I’m sorry, we just got the OK from Volvo, they’re getting a new engine!” Booahhh, after 20,000 km a new engine…. I’m going to drive the 3rd for a few more days, to be honest, I miss the fat guy already, compared to a “real” car.

  • Volvo V70 Oil Change – Which oil and even doable?

    Hello, I bought an old Volvo V70 two months ago and I am very pleased with it. He has 358,000 km on the clock and buzzes like a kitten. Would now like to perform an oil change. It is the classic 5 cylinder with (believe 144? PS). Just a good 10W40 or what would you fill? What to think of this oil for example?https://www.idealo.de/…/4500415?… The favorable price scares me off. If you can recommend a good oil, please don’t hesitate to contact me. chlagen And can you make the oil change incl. filter well yourself or is it bad? Many thanks and greetings Maurice

  • Radio temporarily suspends

    Gude together, my C70 has been running almost perfectly for a long time now and without any major problems. The only really disturbing shortcoming to her is the radio: sometimes it cracks. I honestly find it quite difficult to describe the problem, because I can’t see regularity. Sometimes when I start the car and/or turn on the radio (SC901) the radio works, but there is no sound. After 1-3 minutes it cracks inconceivably loud (at the first appearance I have s o terrified that I almost landed in the ditch) and then the radio works again perfectly. Also during the ride it occurs occasionally. But after a unique appearance it did not occur a second time in a ride. It is also no difference in quality in the music or other interferences. This problem occurs not only when driving on but also directly after the start in the stand. Both in cold and warm temperatures. Although I was already by jema In other words, it might be due to the heat that changes a bit on the radio, but the problem also occurs with cold car/radio. In google of the problem I encountered various forums, which claim it is the amplifier. However, these forums were limited to Peugot and BMW models. The same source, which with the tip with the warming radio said that the amplifier (4x100W) was not the problem because they were very robust. Makes a radio overhaul there sense or the purchase a new one or do I have the same problem again after a few months? Has anyone been able to solve a solution to the problem or even the same problem? Meanwhile I am really close to despair…. Thanks in advance for the help!

  • X25XE does not start

    Hello, how easy to recognize I am not only new here, but also gelich looking for help. My Omega Bj.98 suddenly doesn’t start. We have the car turned off quite normally and wanted to go again after about 10min – nothing was. The starter turns, battery is full, foreign start cable brings just as little. I closed the car by means of FB, and also again. MKL does not blink. Oh yes, fuel seems to get the bug, since it at least afterwards “stinks” – candles, timing belts etc. are almost new .. ( so much to the solutions that I have found here so far ) Second key does not work either. Last time I have the problem before, but after ‘the ‘twentieth attempt suddenly all went again… So, let’s start the cheerful guessing …
