  • Need decision support V60

    Hello community maybe it’s the same for one or the other…… shall I strike? So, on offer I have a V60 D3 summum Geartronic, actually everything in it that I enjoy and no one needs Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa the V60 with 205 hp is the most, the other two so 163 and 215 hp are almost the same again. I tried the fuel monitor and so came to my subjective assessment. Can anyone confirm that? The rims of the V70 don’t fit, so I heard? A preheating can’t be activated/refitted somehow? So this design thing is the alu-colored rear, can you mount it afterwards? Do I have to pay attention to anything else? Software updates should be made due to Multimedi a Schnickschnack be up-to-date, I let myself be told. Thank you, for one or another answer! Greeting Oliver

  • XC60 Front tyres unevenly worn …

    Dear forum, with my XC60, the front tyres are approaching the end of their legal condition. Here in AT are the 1.6 mm minimum profile depth. When parking – when the front wheels are hit – I now notice that the inside side is significantly stronger than the outside side. Delta approx.1 – 1.5 mm. Is on both sides (i.e. left and right front wheel) about the same. Now my question? Is that also so with you? Anyone noticed and talked about it? Many Dan k for your feedback P.S.: Basically this is clear to me with fall, track, follow-up etc. …

  • Rim wrench worn?

    Hello everyone, today I had my XC70 lift the winter bikes and the toolmaster handed me the vehicle with the comment “velvet key shows strong wear, so we have to buy a new one next time” and in fact the key looks a bit loaded. Well, after the tires were tightened 5 times with this key (change S->W + check after 100km, change W->S + check + the current change S->W), I naturally ask myself the question, What is the quality standard at Volvo when a key is so quickly worn out. Do you have similar experiences with it? [Oh, so: all changes and “checks” were made in the same Volvo workshop] Greetings tomsam

  • V/XC 70 MJ 2014 ff.?! What’s next?

    There are still two years before the change of my leasing vehicle. But even today I am thinking about the “Day X”… In 2014 the V70 III would have been almost unchanged for seven years. I can’t imagine choosing the third V70 in a row in almost identical form. Does anyone know about plans of a new variant in the next two years? 2014 is also called “magical date” for the XC90 again and again. This would then be a real alternative for me. So who is speculating with or knows a little more about the “flagship-future” of Volvo?! Or are these the 60s-Ranges now????

  • Consumption in practice T6 vs. D5

    Hello, first of all good day, I am new here. I am about to order a new V60, as successor of a (very good, but actually too big and too expensive BMW X5). Now my question: The stated consumptions are always more theoretical, because according to EU standard determined on the test bench. I have driven for years now large, strong diesel 6-cylinders and do not know if I should take the 215 hp diesel or the strong petroler ? I drive about 35 TKM a year (according to country road/short I drive foresight and with a rather light gas foot, with the X5 I use on average 10,2 l/100km. Who knows both and can tell me what they consume in comparison in everyday life. Thank you for the answers, Greeting Gerhard from the Oberallgäu

  • Cooling water level too low and yet fine

    Since this cold weather, have the phenomenon that I get the message, stop immediately, cooling water level too low. Also true, but when I do the pressure compensation, i.e. open the lid of the balance tank, the stand rises again to maximum. My dealer told me to fill in a little bit about maximum, because the system is very receptive. Maybe someone has experienced the same thing? Is actually fine, but it is not really satisfying. In such a situation I really want a cooling water temperature indicator, if I imagine that someone has no idea and therefore calls the ADAC, no, there is an advertisement already helpful.

  • Price estimate BMW 328i Coupé e36 from 10.97

    Dear Foristi, I have decided to sell my coupé and I would be pleased to receive a price estimate on your part. The car was registered as a management car at BMW for the first time in October 1997. I am the fourth owner and bought the car in January 2008. Since October 2014 it is registered with expired HU in a dry garage. The vehicle is visually in good condition, until the closure has also technically all funtioned. In 2010 he had a front damage, which was fixed by a specialist workshop, photos and a Dekra report are available. The repair costs according to the report amounted to 3,700 euros gross. Vehicle equipment among others: painting: Arctic silver metallic Interior equipment: D6AT clover in blue automatic transmission, electric steel sliding roof, automatic climate control, ESP, ASC+T, central locking, large on-board computer, seat heating and a removable AHK. The first impression of the condition. They were created as part of the storage. I would be pleased about an assessment, the vehicle is located in Niedersachen near Nienburg/Weser. Best regards Jürgen

  • Review for SEAT Ibiza Sport with clutch or gear slats

    Hello, my former foster daughter has to separate herself from her actually beloved car. As it happens, her “Kermit” has recently suffered a clutch or drive damage, for which she is now financially unable and will be able to fix. Before she, among other things, got advice from me, Kermit was notified of actionistically first. Now he is standing in the backyard of the apartment house where she lives (and is moderating) To the facts of “Kermit”: SEAT Ibiza S port 1.6/ 105 hp petrol / manual gearbox EZ 08/2010 TÜV 08/ 2023 mileage 183.000 km colour amarillo-yellow met. LM wheels with all-year tire (60%) condition maintained up to “naja” whether accident-free it can not say…. New are among other things the wheel bearings behind and the rear silencer oil change intervals were adhered to, services regularly up to approx. 120 tkm The financial effort for the clutch / transmission repair in a free workshop (gear used or clutch new) I estimate to approx. 1.500 €. A self-screwer looks rather only at the part costs. On the usual platforms comparable Ibizas between 3.5 and 4t€ are offered. My foster daughter would like to have at least 2,000 € for Kermit. Question to the forum – is her (so my) thumb flotation half realistic? Thank you Prof. Bienlein

  • Deviating FIN in a used car

    Hello together, we are just buying a used car, and I noticed a deviation. I once learned to check the FINs on the car that all are identical. Now I have a deviation with the desired car: FIN under the windshield is different than in the engine compartment. However, it is only another number in the range of the continuous numbers (2 vs. 5). Since it is only this one number, I hold any hidden austa This is an extremely rare phenomenon, according to the seller (dealer). The number in the engine compartment that is also on the vehicle letter applies. Can anyone give me any further information? //Addendum: Seller just called again and talked to VW. It applies to the punched FIN in the engine compartment, which under the windscreen is only a plastic card and someone probably has himself during the disc exchange. On the basis of the figures and data, I think this is a realistic statement, but I don’t have any expertise to validate it. With the next disc change, this can be corrected again.
