Moin! I wanted to open a winter bike thread! Since I have three sets of winter tyres lying around in various dimensions and I need space I want to decide slowly. And besides I like to see pictures from other Volvos. So I have one series wheels in 15″ in 5-spoke optics, one set 17″ propus and one set 17″ steel rims. All together with good WR. pictures come this afternoon or tomorrow.. But how do you do it? I’m curious! Have a nice holiday and possibly long weekend!

MOIN! knows if the SC-805 RADIO with the golden “PREMIUM SOUND SYSTEM” logo is the predecessor of the radio WITHOUT logo or if the “PREMIUM” is the new version? …both radios are identical, right? thanks for the help! GRUSE, nils

Day together, if there was a topic like this, I’m sorry I didn’t find it. I got a 850 2.5-10V from mid-1995 a few days ago and it needs a little service now at a few corners. Among other things, the odometer doesn’t run anymore and the rear wiper has quit the service (should be known what you find in the net). In addition, a few other little things. Heck wiper is only second-ranking, it just comes off for the first time. Now to my questions: 1. Tacho, before I break up the whole dashboard, you can somehow recognize which tacho is installed from the outside, because there are different toothwheels for it? 2. Seat heating, there are current running plans for it? I have discovered under the driver’s seat two torn cables, colors red/white and red. The same thing on the side of the driver. 3. The original, retrofitted wayway lock with these code keys is still working for a lot of time. The LED in the control panel always flashes, regardless of ignition or similar. Unfortunately, the car was not able to use the key for the car?

Hello, after reading the forum for a long time and being an enthusiastic Volvo driver, I got a good idea about the convertible here. I bought a C70 convertible built in 2004. It’s a 2 Lt. engine with 163 hp. The exterior color is black, the interior is beige. Normal equipment with seat heating and automatic transmission. BBS rims with 225 rubbers. After reading the information here that the convertible is better with a Domstrebe it was ordered immediately after the purchase at friendly ” expensive “. Domstrebe is installed and see it drives much better. One is in contrast to my V70. The boxes are much better and the convertible is much deeper. Did it then buy a better sound system? If yes, how can I determine it. And can it be that I have a sports vehicle? How can I determine it? Nothing is registered in the letter and bill. MFG Sven

Hello, after a long time with a T5 I think about buying a V70 Metropolitan with 144 hp. Can you tell me your experiences about consumption/height, but with a brisk but not brute ride. (Does he actually need super or normal) I thank you in advance, Belsantos

I wouldn’t have had such a head for it, or would know it more precisely if I hadn’t had HU/AU at the beginning of the year. I didn’t happen to have the necessary reps in the workshop. I don’t know that the examiner even looked at the gas system, let alone the tank (I had the whole trunk full of bumps). The friendly said recently, that must be absolutely necessary. At the TÜV/DEKRA I still did not ask, because I simply didn’t come to it during the day. So far I haven’t really thought about it, but somewhere I read something about CAP and GWP for gas tanks in vehicles recently in the shed. Often one reads that this has to be done every 2 years with HU, some write, that it is only necessary every 10 years (and then an exchange is cheaper), others think, with a new legislation that would be obsolete, …. and ten other opinions more. Or does this only apply to natural gas tanks? What is it true then?? Does someone really know what concrete gas system is installed in Italy?
