  • Android Radio and Subwoofer

    Hello, I had exchanged my original radio for an Android radio. Everything is running very well as far as possible. In order to amplify the bass, I bought the original subwoofer for under the driver’s seat. Built-in and connected with the cable installed for it. I wanted to test it with full anticipation and nothing happened. Does there have to be any additional changes on the radio? In most reports it says yes, connect and done! Can someone write something to me!? Thanks in advance. Greeting Steini

  • Chip Tuning V70 1 2.0l 126ps

    Hello, I’m thinking of buying a stage 1 chip tuning for my V70 2.0 with 126 hp. It would be 126 hp -> 138 hp and 170 Nm -> 187 Nm.https://www.turboperformance.de/…/2.0-10v-126PS Has anyone already tried this with the 2-litre engine? Doesn’t that bring anything or is it worth it? Best regards Albert

  • Volvo C 70 no demand for sale

    Hello, I think about a vehicle change after and started 3 months ago to offer my convertible from 2007 at (mobile etc.) . So far there was almost no demand ? That has surprised me very much , because a mileage of 130000 is for a diesel yes not so the problem . And also optically he makes still a very good impression . I still need for me a Combi , and would also want to stay with Volvo again . That it is Nov. and one can sell a convertible worse in winter is already clear to me . It is also not an emergency sale , but that no buyer finds me already thoughtful . What do you have for experiences .

  • Need your help with the V50 decision (vs. V70?)

    Well, if you’re researching on the web, you’ve got a shared opinion about the V50. The Ford level seems to be showing up somehow. I’m originally from the V40 (it’s more or less half Mitsubishi). He didn’t even have a few problems…. Trend is definitely going towards the Volvo 5 cylinders, just because of your conscience. Are there any experiences on your part, if all the “diseases” of the V50 with the facelifts have been reasonably corrected? I’m interested in a model year from 2011. Or say, I should rather avoid something else. I’m aware that there are problems with every vehicle or not and that you can read dizzy on the Internet. Alternatively, there would be a V70 in the game, but then it would be more of a year 2005, because of the price. At the V50 I would tend to be a diesel, at the V70 to the gasoline engine, there is nothing in the tax sense… Hope you can help me something… Thank you!

  • Various questions about the Volvo Navi RTI

    Hello, for a few days I have been driving a V50 with RTI Navi. I have a few questions about the operation: – At the start I can choose between simple and advanced mode. How can I switch to one of these variants after selection? – The TMC function gives me riddles. I have set the standard option (IMHO semi-automatic) in the traffic message options. In the rush hour I entered a STrecke, where there are guaranteed 4-5 traffic jams (permanent construction sites etc.). After some time the TMC symbol was displayed on the top left of the map – but no announcement or similar. How can I read this traffic message now? In the traffic message menu -> I always get read messages: “No traffic message available”. – 500m in front of the destination in a small village where there are guaranteed no traffic changes, I want to get there and again the message “changed traffic situation – new route 150m shorter, accept, reject or display” (meanwise). – How can I fix the TMC station? How can I stop the station without stopping my channel? I just have to stop the route again.

  • Volvo V50 2.0 FlexiFuel can be converted to LPG – what to note ?

    Hello, For a week now I am proud owner of a V50 2.0F R design. Now the question arises: Does it make sense to install a Prins LPG gas system in the car with the FlexiFuel system or should you continue driving on ethanol (E85) ? I intend to have a Prins VSI II with a 62 L tank installed, of course with the loading floor increase of about 2cm from the AWD model. The offer from the gas builder of 1900€ is already available – what about the ethanol sensor at LPG operation – “spins” which then does not exist without flow? Who has already been able to gain experience here and what other things to consider ? Thank you for your input.

  • Another one with summer tyres 🙁 CRASH

    Hi. Today at noon I got something from my sister-in-law and luck didn’t have the Kiddys with me. When I was standing at the traffic lights on the 2nd or 3rd row, I got a heavy blow from the back. I got so ́n Dussel in the back. I didn ́t feel good when getting out, but did not have an ambulance call, go to the doctor tomorrow. When I looked at his car, I noticed that the idiot was still on the way with summer tires. The police had to correct the first time and he has to drive in front of them again, with winter tires. With my car I have to go first to the expert, it is optically only the apron somewhat wavy, but I fear bad, because the door looks at the back left as if it was 2-3 mm on. I ́m surprised. My neck has had trouble and back pains since then.

  • Omega B water in the intake area???

    Moin people, have today freed my X25XE from its intake system. Since the left valve cover or its seal has been renewed. I have seen this. In the intake area between air filter and throttle valvehttp://img264.imageshack.us/img264/8710/12004043.th.jpg throttle valvehttp://img812.imageshack.us/img812/2975/30823942.th.jpg Have also yellow mucus on the oil cover. However, the ZK seals are to be excluded in my opinion. CO Test was i.e., no cooling water consumption, no pressure in the cooling system, no dirt in the compensation tank, no engine problems. The valve cover was also normally dirty, so only with oil, the yellow mist is only at the highest point in this case the oil cover is. Can it be that the intake area or luf filter and DK and is able to ring water there? These amounts seem to me a lot for condensity. Thank you in yours.

  • Sense of the auxiliary air pump / secondary air supply??

    Moinsen, it asks me a question: What is the purpose and purpose of the secondary air supply available in some Volvos? I don’t see it yet… Second question in the context: does a return to “without secondary air” result in a deterioration in any way? Is the sec-air captured and regulated by the engine STG? Background: on my AWD is a hose of this control (from the “valve” to the downpipe, directly behind the turbocharger to pump” completely porous and hardened, therefore broken. The new part arrived yesterday. A soft, supple hose. Logically, this, because hot exhaust air will be transported again in the future hard and porous. Therefore, I am looking to expand the entire stuff or upgrade to the exhaust preheating “before Bj 96″… But only if this does not cause any disadvantage. Unfortunately, have my laptop in the workshop and can therefore not be fitted to’s Vadis… Markus

  • The good one gives up his mind.

    Well, that’s probably it with my buddy. after more than 500000 kilometers the cylinder compression is gone. However, I don’t think in the least to put the loved ones on a junkyard, he really doesn’t deserve that. I think, if you drive with such a working animal many, many kilometers, much, a lot of heart blood and even more money, then suddenly a little more becomes out of a 22 year old car and you start to love it. Long speech, short sense, the engine is most likely to be according to my knowledge. nevertheless, have driven it again to the Volvo workshop to be sure, but those also mean that it is more like that. Yes… I plan to expand the old engine and replace it with a younger 20 V selected by Volvo. That will cost so around 1000€, but that’s really worth it. However, can I possibly even have a turbo engine installed? That would be pretty cool, as I think, but rather a dream, or? MfG Moritz Moritz
