Hello, I have to tap your swarm knowledge again: I drive an XC60 T8, EZ was on 26.03.2021, the car ran about 17,000 km. The car is leased. A few days ago the car informed me that it would like to service it. Since I want to combine the service directly with the wheel change, I would like to do the service only at the end of March. My dealer says that this is no problem, that one can overlay the service “a few weeks”. I actually think it is unproblematic and would not even expect an overlay (EZ was only at the end of March 2021). However, I am irritated that the car pushes for maintenance so early, I didn’t know about my previous V60 I.

XC60 Late PlugIn and at 320km highway fogging in between time and again the windows
Hello, had read something here about the topic and today it happened to me more often. Climate on automatic at 21-22 degrees, front nozzles all on and during the highway ride fogged first the right front and rear side windows. Later after about 2 hours my side window on the driver’s side. After switching to manually up and middle it goes away. I never had a problem before. Software 2.5. Thought if the climate is running, can never fog the windows. Are there solutions for this? Thank you and warm regards.

Lupo goes out in the drive, now there’s no more gang
People, I’m new here and completely broken up. Need your help.. Last time I stayed with my Lupo 3L. Just went out in the ride. The aisles were dark in the display. At first he didn’t go on, but now he’s running on N. I read out with VCDS and that came out (see photo ). If I hit him now and go on D, the aisle pops in with a force and the lupo goes out immediately. I’m really desperate and depended on the little ones. What could it be, one of you an idea or tips? Data: VW Lupo 3L 1.2 TDI ANY 275,000km

Gasoline or diesel?
Moin, I drive about 20,000 km a year. A lot of short distances (5-10km – school, shopping, every day) but also long distances (500 -1000km). In the year I come to the total 20,000 km. About Honda Accord, year 2004-2006 I heard a lot of positive things. Now the question is, which engine should the car have. Reliability is in my first place. But the operating costs on the second. Does the diesel have a DPF? And still a general question about the reliability of the diesel from Honda. With my Vectra C, Turbo diesel 150 hp everything has broken (AGR, hydraulic flaps, turbo, clutch, dual-mass swing wheel etc.) Is the diesel from Honda as vulnerable as the one from Opel? I have heard that the diesels have become very vulnerable nowadays because of the whole around equipment.

T8 and electronic logbook
I don’t want to get rid of this for 100 reasons: 1-99: It only runs under Windows on the Mac and is ….something oldbacken. So operating system and software. 2. Since afterwards it is changeable at any time and without logging the purpose of the journey, it does NOT correspond to the requirements of the tax office. A newer version fixes that probably, but could not be installed. All cheap solutions are only computer-based solutions, where you have to carry everything together on the computer. So you can save yourself. In order to get rid of the platform, it should be a web-based solution with app for the iphone, which corresponds to all strict specifications. So I hit Vimcar – a startup from Berlin -. 899€ brutto without follow-up costs. Another world, no installation costs, simply dongel in OBD socket, register and off it goes of course. Super! Then the big disappointment: It apparently only works in the mode HYBRID. Rides I start in PURE, a hotly burn, now the situation doesn’t run? And now the fleet is well done.

Workshop appointment over the vehicle
Moin, I couldn’t find anything about the SuFu: My vehicle says I should make an appointment for annual maintenance. So I clicked on it and I’m going to go. I thought… It comes the message that I should connect the vehicle to my Volvo ID (I actually did, I pay for the VOC). Then comes the message that the vehicle is connected now and I can use all services. If I want to make an appointment then comes the message that I should connect the vehicle to my Volvo ID…. Also a reconnecting brought no solution. What am I doing wrong? OK, I could also call the workshop. But why do something in 2 minutes with a phone call if you can make it fully automatically online in several hours. Best greetings from the most beautiful city in the world! Lars

VOLVO V 40 is through!
Hello dear friends! I have something nice to share with you! Was today at the TÜV and had to go to the EK (AU) and the STK (TK) test. My V 40 got through both test procedures without any complaints. I can continue to drive it until 15.01.2020 and the V 40 will be 15 years old in April 2018. At the AU this was measured: temperature of the engine 96° degrees, rotation number of the engine in status: 697 rpm. CO content in % 0.07 HC content [ppm] 84 with more running engine: 2689 rpm CO content in % 0.25 Lambda probes 1,003 In the technical test, the TÜV only contested the left headlamp because it is supposedly too high. They put down. Now I can no longer adjust the headlights with the engines. This no longer works. The Slovak TÜV claims that the V 40 BJ 2003 has no adjustment motors on the headlights. What I can do now, I don’t know.

Rinse autom. gear or switch?
Hello dear community! I have the following problem with the automatic transmission: To the Fzg: Built 2004/Motor B4184S2/Motor AW 55-50/51SN/178,000 km It switches very roughly up and sometimes stays in low gears after switching down, so you have to give the car the spores for a short time so that it switches up. In addition, the power interruption does not work in the stand. To separate the power flow at the traffic light from the engine, I have to set it on neutral. Then you notice clearly the interruption. I thought at first that if a transmission oil flush could at least improve the switching behaviour, but since the converter does not seem to work properly anymore, I wonder if I should change the gears immediately. The engine still runs soft and sweats hardly. Oil consumption approx. 1 L / 10,000 km. Only the ventilation and the gearbox are no longer the best. Since I have to sell the car soon, I am putting what I want to plug in. What do you think? Who has experience and can advise me on this decision?

Lighting for the display and W-key of the selector lever of the automatic!
Moin dear friends and the forum! Unfortunately I still have a small problem! If I set the ignition key to position II and make stand lighting, I can see the illumination of the display clearly and brightly at the selector lever for the automatic. One can see where the selector lever is at the moment, namely on P. What interests me, is the W key to the right of the selector lever. 1. Is the W key also illuminated? 2. If yes! How do you open this entire display to change lamps? 3. Which lamps are these? Many greetings from Torsten P.S. To explain the W key: the W key is called winter start-up aid. In the case of ice and snow smoothness, an automatic driver has to press the W button because the automatic drives off with the 3rd gear and because the tires can then drive better with great power and little gas pedal.
