  • Battery empty, automatic on (P) help!!!

    Hello together I have the following problem. Have my Omega ’02 with automatic gearbox not driven out of the garage for longer time and now the battery is empty. The problem is that I don’t come to the battery to charge it or bridge it, because I can’t open the hood for space in the garage. The only way is to push the vehicle a little backwards, but what is not possible because the automatic is on (P) and I can switch if the engine is not running on (N). Does anyone of you know how I can switch the automatic to (N) without the engine running anyway??

  • Short performance and a big thank you to you

    Dear Volvo friends, after having bought me a 850-successor who is facing new challenges, I have signed up for the forum. I have been reading here for several years and am thrilled how much expertise and tips have accumulated. SuFu is my friend The hottest tip I picked up here was the infamous petrol pump relay. The workshop had suggested to replace everything that has to do with ignition, including pump and ignition lock etc.. The bottom line was that it was solved for a Zwannie – but a hearty DANKESCHÖN to the experts and multi-scribers here! The old one would have been too much to do now. Have spent a while looking around after nem T5 – unfortunately it didn’t work or I found the prices called up. Maybe I’ll find another one when I’m still big again. For the new 2.5L 10Ver the overall condition has simply spoken. The last few years only in the summer, T5R-Frontschürze, the root tree, but I can’t find the old one again.

  • LED light source (brake, rear-view light) and watt information

    Hi, since I have already equipped the interior with LEDs, I would know that this is not allowed, at least the rear driving light would like to exchange for a really bright LED. (so that I can see something in the dark) Now the illuminant is a P21W (12V). Probably 4 watts. If I now use a high-priced, 30 Watt Cree LED with reflector cone…I wouldn’t want to try it alone from the Watt base at all. Heat, smorgasboring, fire… But I don’t want to use such a 5 Euro LED from the bay either, because the light yield was rather sad and at some point you noticed that the board slowly but surely also freaked out, because it always got very hot. Or the brake lights with a P21W LED…has someone tried something like that at you times? I have seen this time at a V70 II. You have then very clearly seen that the front man slows down. I thought that it was good… As told, to me that this (unfortunately) is not allowed. So I would like to ask myself.

  • V70 AWD The shell theme or how it became Fwd

    Question to the Awd driver: Who of you already had the defect of the sleeve? So who has this sleeve been overturned so that the gearing has gone. I ask because it concerns me now as well. My worry about this is how well the gearing of the angular gearbox can survive with such a problem? Does this hold out more or is that now the WG is gone or is there still chances? How did it happen with you? Unfortunately, I already have no appointment here this week. I am sitting just like coals because I would like to know if the WG is still intact. Otherwise I have a big problem.

  • Thule Dynamic Dachbox M or L?

    Hello I’m looking for a roof box and I chose the Thule Dynamic because of the quality, appearance and aerodynamics. The L should hold 430 L and be 235 cm long and the M 320 Litre with 205 cm. I would be interested if the L is not too large based on pictures and experiences. On the picture here it should be an L. I personally find it is already very far above. What do you think? How are your experiences?http://www2.pic-upload.de/thumb/31621147_1.jpg

  • XC 90 rear wheel blocked to the right

    Hello, this week, after only 74,000 kilometers and just under four years now also with my XC90, the “hand brake coating waste problem” probably built in by the manufacturer came to bear. Wheel blocks at low speed – fortunately for me. So off to the friendly one. At the back right both coverings replaced – left side also a covering fell off or lay loose in the brake drum. This is not normal. And with the much-acclaimed safety of Volvo cars this has nothing to do with. With wear this is also not greenable for me. So slowly I really doubt about the quality of Volvo. Now I have almost all the errors already installed by the factory about me – wheel bearing 2x/angle gear 2x and many other small things. Since now this year would be due again a new car, I am really hard to think about, with the required quality and reliability of my current Volvo, whether it should become another vehicle of this manufacturer. I first wrote Volvo.

  • TFT Headrest Monitors for Volvo

    Hiya people, what do you think about it…….the following Ebay-Link is really the hammer….bay 79€ for a headrest with monitor……is already a hammer price…..there you can well and gladly put one or two back, if one goes over the Wupper….If I compare the monitors with those of Bluepower from Sweden, then they look identical…….eventually same production and bluepower stick only their logo in……….or good replica with poor quality???BluePower What do you think about it???? Since the bay dealer is near me, I will just look at the monitors real and test them…. Greetings Percy

  • Which tyres at delivery?

    Hello together, I expect the delivery of my XC90 in November. Does anyone know if the vehicles are delivered with summer, winter or year-round tyres?

  • Water drain Sliding roof

    Hello together, I followed the advice today and checked the water drains on my car, I noticed that the left front hole on the sliding roof does not allow water. Now I have read you should try it with compressed air, but wanted to secure me here again and ask if there can’t burst anything in the A pillar or something, not that my drains because I want to get the drain free. Another question, I have read that if the car is drunk, one should pull a plug under the car so that the water can run off, why not just leave the plug outside ?? Greeting

  • V8 loses coolant

    My fatster has been permanently losing coolant since last year. I drive the rare BGJ V8. Unfortunately, nobody including me finds the leak. If I have warmed the box and then put it off, it drips at the front of the noise damping from the vents. The loss leads to the fact that I have to tilt half a litre every 4 weeks. It is not visible after disassembly of all the panels from above and below. The engine block and all the coolant lines are dry. Water pump also checked through the friendly. This has everything pulled out – nothing found (the car has been there twice!). It also does not smoke out white, so head seal OK. As well as because the coolant is under the car I have even turned the box on stage for 10 minutes at 5000 tours and two friends have illuminated everything under the car. The leak is undetectable! Even the balancing container around the lid is not wet. The heating works perfectly. You can find absolutely GAR NOTS that which is added to the loss of coolant or something else could happen to the problem.
