  • Volvo S40 T4 1.9l Bj97 Nails, knocks

    Hello dear forum community. I’ve been having a problem since recently. My engine knocks, nails, or whatever you might call it. I’ve already handled the Sufu on extreme mishandling and partly. Problem started with unround motor running. I’ve done the following: Coils are already new, but again tested with others – no improvement idle controller cleaned – without improvement gasoline pressure regulator/limiter removed and the small gasket replaced because this was porous – while standing the car about 2 weeks. Car started and see there – runs wonderful, ABER: Now the engine knocks (video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_Ohl7LMk6Y&feature=youtu.be ) Have the screws pulled from the scrumptle to the turbo and 2, which were bolted out also lightly? The suck-up curved screws are still pulled – thanks to loose under and pressure hoses (the thin ones) were already controlled and neatly attached (something to change) – no remedy- and filter change with 5Wanks is not possible.

  • Stainless steel pedals XC 90 T8

    Hello all, I really wanted the T8 Inscription (because of the nicer radiator grill) but I find the stainless steel pedals from the R design great. Can I retrofit them and mount them myself? Do you have a tip where to get them? LG and thank you for your answers.

  • High fuel consumption

    Hello together, for almost two months I am a proud Smart-Pure owner. But problems are already coming up! I don’t quite understand that with a full tank I get only 200 km far! City traffic is clear.. with highway it is 175 km. Is that normal? Year 2001, 40kw, 78,000 km! I am grateful for every advice!

  • Start stop broken?

    Hello, all together, can someone tell me if the start-stop function (SSF) is like weather or temperature dependent? Yesterday I drove about 25 to 30 km and about an hour later the same track again and the SSF jumped briefly to green, but almost immediately back to orange again. We had it yesterday -6 degrees. Today morning -10 and my 28 km at work the SSF remained on orange. However, now it is noon 0 to -3 degrees and suddenly it jumped and stayed on green. I had already at 1 degrees the problem that it was bad and sometimes only on the 2nd attempt. Search for the cause. Battery has been changed due to this problem in Dec – but did not bring any improvement. Yesterday it looked at a body builder. He said that everything fits: alternator, engine, cable, battery….. looks all top…. The engine was also exchanged last year… Thanks for your answers!

  • Facelift radio better?

    Hello, the new radio looks already more noble than the “old” and has the USB port ahead. The audio package has remained at 700€. If you take the sound system and the pre-equipment, you get to 490€, a aperture costs around 30€, i.e. 520€ + radio. Would that be a good alternative or is the new radio improved, so you prefer to take the audio package? Have already got a super mini USB stick for the glove compartment, but if it hangs on an accessory radio, it doesn’t bother me either. Or maybe just the pre-equipment and the rest itself? Would it be good to know if you can get more out of the sound system speakers with a good radio.

  • 451 H7 changed, complete insert rocking

    Hi 451 municipality, I changed the H7 dipped light bulb at my Smarti. But there is still a problem. Now it is that the whole lamp insert swings upwards and downwards. I don’t understand, because you only have to fold up the clamps to change. Have tried to look inside with the mirror at the back, but could not see if there is anything loose there. Does one of you know the construction and therefore understand why the whole bet swings upwards and downwards???

  • I need your help with winter tires!

    I am looking for winter tyres for the XC90 of the brand “Pirelli Scorpion Ice&Snow” for 235/60R18. I want to have these tyres pulled onto my Atlantis rim. A dealer with whom I get company discount informed me that there are only 8 tyres of this brand/size in the whole federal territory and the price is 212,86€ incl. all works,costs (balances;Mwst). Since I have to decide at short notice I ask for your contributions how much you paid for the tires. To me the price seems too high? Thank you in advance. P.S. I know that you should drive at temperatures below +7 degrees winter tires what I also have with my company car. However, my wife would like to ski holidays with the XC90……

  • No more fiscal truck at the XC 90!?

    To all interested parties from Öziland! Today at noon it was whispered to me that the possibility of the Großelch to get past the Austrian NoVa (standard consumption tax; 12-14% depending on the type) is history. To this stage a relatively tight grid was fixed behind the second row of seats, which separates the passenger room from the “freight room” – ie: truck. Although a rather strange idea to make a truck that can not transport more bulky objects than the door width, but at the list prices are e.g. 14% already a lot of ash… The dear competitors have apparently got wind from this sales argument and after Volvo was still so daring to apply for the whole idea in newspaper ads, maybe Karlheinz also smelled Lunte and turned the thing off. Volvo will certainly appeal against the decision of the authorities, but for the time being I would advise to buy a truck – unless one passes the risk fully on the friendly, but they are warned and will not play along… After I have decided to give up this variant again – Richard will have decided concretely again for a diesel piece.

  • Pick up in Sweden?

    Hello, has one of you ever picked up his moose in Sweden?. Is it possible? My cheerful one didn’t think about it from Volvo Germany, unless you live in a distant country. (who wants that already!) How nice to fly to the factory in Sweden and get his new moose there, drive him in right away and look at the beautiful country. Greetings from Bavaria
