Hello! I would like to know how you accommodate your children in the XC90. We currently have a Maxi-Cosi with Isofix base for group 0 and a Roman for group 1. Assuming that you have three children with an age range of 2 to 3 years (sometimes size and weight out of consideration), how would you best accommodate them? According to the latest recommendations, kids should sit against the direction of travel as long as possible. And all of this since this summer there are also the iSize models. I wonder how I get to the rear two seats, if both outside seats of the second row are covered with child seats and thus can no longer be folded forward to get to the third row. Isofix holders are only two. How do you do that? Thank you!

From a press release: “Fabrikneue Dieselautos ohne Filteren have lost between 800 and 1000 Euro in the past two weeks, reports the industry newspaper “Automobilwoche” on the basis of a study by EurotaxSchwacke. Many residual value calculations of leasing companies and auto banks are thus obsolete. “There, values break away daily,” said Eurotax manager Martin Verelli of the newspaper.”

Hello together, thanks for the help of a nice user`s now the VIDA works and so now some errors on the car come plausible. Volvo XC90 from 06/2006 with D5 185PS; automatic 151.000km. I could fix some small errors on glow plugs etc.. The not unknown topic with the ESP (maintenance anti-slip…) is still unexplained. Lt. VIDA should be accelerometers (displacement errors) or cross-acceleration sensors of the ubel culprits. With some research it turned out that water has flowed through the exhaust pipe, which is pulled in and out of the socket at the column, into the passenger room. Thus, the sensor located at the lowest point had received water and looks at least outside not so doll. Oxidated aluminum and slightly corroded contacts…. From inside that looks much better…. Who wants to delete the wrong part of Volvo`s new part?

Dear people, for some time now the car has been running out of gas. Driving is then only possible for a certain time on petrol operation. Then it goes back a few weeks and the error comes up again. Today the Volvo was then with the friendly one. Then the hammer: it would have to be replaced the gas distributor, spark plugs and filter. Cost point:1.500 Euro!!! Edit: How is the error in the gas system actually determined? Or would not the system have to be adjusted first? Can someone give me an assessment whether the price fits and maybe someone else has had such a mistake? Thank you for your feedback. Greeting odddo

The right lock for the bonnet – see photo – no longer snaps in. The U-hook on the bonnet is then not pulled down according to purpose. You can see this malfunction on the bonnet, which stands a little above the fender. A former emergency aid no longer works. With it I could push the claw of the lock down by means of a powerful screwdriver until it snapped in. Then I pulled the unlocking handle. The claw opened and locked up accordingly again according to purpose. This emergency aid no longer works as described. I have the impression that compared to earlier less tension is on the unlocking handle. The grip actuation feels more smoo. The Bowden trains visible in the engine compartment to the left lock and to the right lock look o-k. Off and seem to be mounted correctly. What can be the reason that the right lock for the bonnet no longer snaps in? P.S. My experience with the Haynes Service & Repair Manual, however, is currently seen here repeatedly: The topic of the bonnet is not addressed in any way.

Moin Forum, for half a year I have been reading here and this forum has indirectly confirmed to me that there are certainly reasons against a Volvo, but these are null and void once you have sat in one and made a test ride 😉 Reason enough to fit into the tradition of the new ideas. So since April a new one purrs through Dresden: Volvo V70 D5 Kinetic (BJ. 2005), of course black, 163hp, bought with 133T km, DPF retrofitted. My first Volvo, but as a teacher you must inevitably land there… 😉 After the first thousand kilometers and a hundred times parking, the sweatdrops that the captains of ocean giants have had when they have controlled their cruise ship by seas and channels and deviates from a souly grin, for many years to have found a faithful companion. Problems the Elch also likes to solve: I also had the problem of the “exploding handbrake”, which is described very well in this forum. Thanks to a full new discount at the test ride:-) I had to find out the limits of my car’s maintenance – since I had to say it all about the latest!
