  • PROTECTION PLATTS, BACKERS FOR XC60

    Hello all, I have a question about the accessory part PROTECTION PLATTE, HINTERER STOSSFÄNGER – is this mandatory or does only have to be carried with the ABE? What does this cost approximately incl. mounting for the model DRIVe?

  • Inscription for XC60

    Hello there I would just like to point out that from MJ 2013 Inscription there will also be for the XC60! New colours are linen white and the tan, so similar to the V70. In addition, the leather is generally grained finer, as in the V70. Vlt. helps with the selection 😉 Gruess us dä CH Peter

  • 60,000 inspection: costs okay?

    Hello, my big guy was at the 60,000 wellness cure. However, the costs surprised me. A colleague has a S60 D5, which paid about 80 euros less… I will probably compare the bills… But here my cost points: basic price 60,000er 169.40 gasket 1,23 oil filter 10,97 air filter 22,31 pollen filter 42,54 engine oil 0W30 110,18 flushing liquid 2,26 service material 4,38 power in total 363,27 net total 421,39… And now you come… In addition, an abrasion area on the edge of the backrest was treated with leather care, without calculation. Also washing, suction and dashboard dedusting. Do you find this ok? How do your 60,000 wellness cures look for a V70 II D5/2.4D? Gruss, Dirk War today with gas bomber. 140hp are too little for a V70 viiiiiiiiiiel…

  • Component – Repainting – Crystal White

    Hello together, I would like to read your opinion about the following situation: The annual car had a stone stroke when buying from the dealer which should be fixed. Since a dent was available and also a polishing was not possible, I insisted of course on a spot repair (that the varnish is so delicate, I was not aware). So I examined during the takeover after the painting also only the spot – which looked super clean. However, I noticed later that the whole C-pillar differs clearly from the surrounding components depending on the angle of view and here, as I now know, also an entire painting of the component was made. (Results as shown on the pictures – of course photographed from an extreme point of view!). A color difference does not seem to exist but the negative effect is nevertheless clear. What do you think, what can you do there or did you already have such experiences with the paint? Greetings

  • 360° camera: camera on the left not synchronous

    Hello together, since recently the picture of my left camera (V60 MY2021) no longer fits the other 3; it looks almost as if the picture is enlarged here – is quite easy to recognize by the structure of the ground in the photos. I am not sure if the problem suddenly occurred out of nowhere or was created in connection with the activation of the Volvo OnCall subscription at the service 2 weeks ago. There apparently the necessary software was played up. From the friendly came the answer “problem so far is not known”, I then made an appointment for next month. Maybe someone from the forum here knows the problem? Greeting Karsten

  • Used XC 60 or new Tiguan Goal

    Hello Together, I’m new here and looking for a family car. I came up with a used XC60 B4 Plus Bright petrol Mild-Hybrid 197ps EZ 06.2023 (7000km) directly from Volvo and a brand new VW Tiguan Goal 150ps. Both came up with the sum of 42000 €. I am now hard to decide, because I have almost no experience with the two. It is important to us the reliability, sustainability. Can you please help us? Many thanks in advance! Best regards

  • Heico chip deleted after engine update?!

    Hello, actually wanted to order me a Heico XC60 D3 AWD. However, the dealer (and another car dealer) advised me not to do so, because with a software update for the engine (of Volvo) the data of the Heico chip are deleted (or no longer fit) and this should be reprogrammed. I then ordered (according to these statements) the D5 AWD. Has someone experience with Heico and updates for engine etc. ? VG, Pelzebubub

  • Purchase advice: V70 D3 last generation

    Hello, after 10 very reliable years with my Opel Signum 1.8 I am now slowly looking for a worthy replacement. By chance I discovered a Volvo-service car at the dealer. V70 D3 (136 hp) 2 years old, 27000 km. What would you have to pay attention to with a V70D3 if you want to drive it long ? Does he have certain childhood diseases (electronics, DPF, etc.) ? Can he be compared qualitatively with a passat ?

  • Emergency bike and space in trunk XC 60

    Hello, at XC 60 the tyre repair kit is included in the standard equipment. However, I would prefer the emergency bike, how is it then with the storage under the trunk, does it disappear? The bag storage flap remains the or does it disappear in the case of the emergency bike? Does anyone perhaps have a picture of the trunk with emergency bike? The safety disconnect is standard, is this stored in the storage under the trunk? I finally have a test trip in the next week and hope that my expectations will be fulfilled. I have already driven a GLK sample but I didn’t like the form at all. Thanks already for the answers Thomas

  • XC60 D4 AWD GT 181PS – Performance increase – Polestar, Heico, Racechip?

    Hello, I’m thinking about whether I’m getting my XC60 BJ 2014 MY 2015 a performance increase, in which acceleration I’d like to have a little bit more pull. Now I’m faced with the painful and already much discussed topic: performance increase by whom? For me Polestar, Heico or the Racechip are a question. Polestar: +34PS +20NM €1,199,- Heico: +49PS, +70NM €2,014,- Racechip Ultimate: +51PS +108NM €479,- With the Polestar, the torque increase is a little bit low, but I’d like Heico very much. Interesting of the price would be the Racechip, where the torque increase is too high without damaging the vehicle. I would have been interested if someone had already experienced the racechip.
