Moin, I have the tiny problem that my AWD has a rusty KS line. This is missing from Volvo – so it’s no longer available, also not via classic-parts or otherwise. So now I’m there, where I wanted to be in 10 years’ time – when buying parts for a vintage car To throw the AWD on the scrap doesn’t come into question!!! So where do I get a suitable KS line now? That doesn’t even have to be OE Volvo, because of me also as a meter product and I bend it and then bang it myself. But where do you get such “small” lines with such thin wall thickness? Everything I could find so far moves around the 8, 10 or 12mm outer diameter with 1 or 2mm wall thickness. I can’t possibly bend that. Who has a tip where I can look around… Markus

Purchase advice XC90 BJ 2016/2017
Hello dear Volvo community, After my beautiful Touareg was broken in 2019, I bought an A6 with a transitional way.. Now that the whole drama is approaching the end, I am now looking for something new. I had a lot in mind, from the Audi Q8 via VW Touareg, T5, Chrysler Grand Voyager, Jeep Grand Cherokee and others. Since a Volvo dealer at work is much to me the beautiful silhouette of the XC90 in mind. Today I was then in the car house and have fallen in love with this car, which it now becomes one. It should become the diesel with 235hp, or if available the polestar. From the equipment, Inscription or R floats in front of me. Uncertainly I am driving at the chassis, air suspension now for 5 years and I like it, however, I already had to let the Audi change the rear axle and know the prices, but rear axle with leaf spring I did not know until today. Is there otherwise any for or again the against or for the XC90? What are the vulnerabilities?

Volvo On Call … used XC90
Hello to the forum: Sorry topic, I know (using some posts after using the SuFu), but there are still questions open to me: Pre-Remarks about it: – I have created a VOLVO ID. – I have reset the vehicle to “factory settings” (there used car and thus owner change). – I bought a VoC subscription from the friendly person and got a PIN to it. – I have installed the VoC app on my smartphone (iPhone). 1. Does VoC only work with a data card in the vehicle modem? i.e. it does NOT work with a WiFi connection via smartphone? 2. If I select in the CenterDisplay in settings/communication the item “Volvo On Call” comes out, then a message similar to “Volvo On Call UNIT activate” and I should enter a PIN. The PIN that I have received from the friend after buying a VoC subscription does not work, i.e. it comes to the message “false code”. Question: Must be entered here or how to connect the connection is possible?

Fuel pump Lupo 1.0 ALL defective!
Good morning and to all fathers a nice father’s day, my problem is that my tanker has broken last. I had a gas odour in the car for a long time and found out that it is due to the high pressure line on the tanker. Now I wanted to remove it from the tanker to see if the seal is defective. How else is it, the plastic on the tanker where the high pressure line is on it is broken. Now I need a new tanker.. Which one can buy there? Used or rather new? And I even found some with 3 or 4 bar, what is the difference? MfG NoNstore

USA-Chrome rims XC90
Hi, I have a question. I’m interested in such an XC90. A little bit more unusual would not be bad for him. Now I’ve seen a lot more in the TV cars – of course in the USA – which had simply crazy rims. These were polished, huge (min 20″ and – tja, just something that you just never see here (a technique that still turned on in the stand) – partly also gilded (that would be really too much, however, is only funny). I picked up a name of a rim company in the USA: Asanti just the madness!! Almost too much of the good… And then still the name “Giovanni”. My question is whether such a design has to stay a German taboo again by the TÜV, or if I could drive the rims (if the format is right for the car) here. (from the purchase price we don’t talk better. hehehe) !! I don’t want to be misunderstood – I don’t think I have to buy such a rim, after all, I’m not a rap star (but rather the fan of Chopin).

Pricing “teurer” cars
Hello, in some threads it was said by some participants that one can expect “this or that” at a certain price. I would like to take up this topic with you. However, I find it difficult to get started because we would have to group a lot of things. What would be price classes? What would be perceived as “high quality”? I get this: – here in the forum it is said that one has to expect for “round” 60,000 euros for an XC90 V8, i.e. 10,000 euros more than for an XC90 T6, “more” than just a larger engine. My counterthesis: the larger the car, the less you get as a countervalue for it, but you buy prestige. Best example: BMW x5. Was there in 2003 a 4.6is for 78,200 euros, which has just 27hp more than the 4.4i for 62,700. (good of the 4.4 needs the sprot package, the met-lace, i.e. real price difference: 12,000 euros) Or differently: how much cheaper must a VOL be equipped as a comparable Audi/BM or VOL for a better version of the Audi/M

Phaeton 5.0 V10 TDI retrofitting soot particle filters to Euro4
Hello dear community, I already read a lot in the forum for the V10 TDI, because I would like to buy one, is really a great car I have read several times about it that the V10 can be retrofitted with a soot particle filter and then also managed the Euro4 standard, have already seen such vehicles. Can you tell me where I can have the retrofitting and it is also so expertly recognized the VW. Also possible costs. I know of a VW handler who had a converted had it to stand, but had forgotten to ask at that time and was not the home. Would be great if you could help me further.

Phaeton at the dealer around the corner..
http://suchen.mobile.de/vehicles/details.html?id=166620176 Good day together I’m thinking about buying the vehicle behind the link. A nice car. However, I’m not sure what would be a reasonable price. If I look at the others you shouldn’t pay more than 12500 for the car. How are your market experiences? Am I wrong? Greeting Thorsten

V70 DRIVe 2,5 Flexi Fuel Questions
Day I didn’t want to ask about the Volvo in the Audi Forum, it is now a V70 DRIVe 2.5 Flexi Fuel from 10/2009 with 38000km. Tires and Tüv are completely new and winter tyres with a 7mm profile are there. My questions: Does the Volvo control chain or belt ? The DRIVe is probably limited to 210km although it can 230km because of the fuel saving etc, the tires give “only” 210km, if you want to change that, you need other tyres and the entry in the vehicle license yes ? but 210km is enough for me and therefore I will not do something like that (it only intresses me). The software there in the display is in Swedish and it is supposedly possible to have it changed by the Volvo dealer, where they want 100€ for, it also goes differently? (did not have the car driven by the Volvo dealer) Bin the crate test and must say TOLL, neatly steam (340Nm/231PS) and you can just have over 1500 revolutions at 100Kmh, my “older” for the trailer has a 100km.

Run the engine until DPF burns?
If the D5 burns the particulate filter, and you turn off the engine, the car smells burnt from the outside. – Therefore, my question: would it be better to run the engine until the filter is free? (only then I wonder why there are no control lights that informs me that it’s just burning out – I always notice that the push-off doesn’t work).
