  • Wheel bearing V50

    Hello, for me the left wheel bearing makes noises. What does a new one cost? Is this also available in the accessories, or do I have to go to Volvo? What would a free workshop calculate for changing the wheel bearing? Pope Edit: I’ve already looked at Skandix because of the spare parts. I don’t get smart out of it: each wheel bearing at the front! 1) Home brand: 89,00 Euro 2) Volvo Original: 196,05 3) INA / FAG / Litens / GMB 149,00 What are the differences to see here? Home brand is about 110 Euro cheaper per piece than Volvo Original, and also 60 Euro more fertilized than INA/FAG etc. Can one say about the respective qualities from 1) to 3) what? What will the installation cost approx.? Pope

  • Source(s) of supply for new (used) motor

    after changing the ZKD, the ignition plugs, coils, etc., the engine suddenly began to make like a tractor at 260 noises – as if it had no exhaust manifold or exhaust system. volvo just meant motor-total damage – something with camshafts, “you have to change the small engine (ha?), minimum”. however – can be repaired there nothing and a new motor will probably cost a fortune at volvo. On the other hand, it would be a pity to just leave the box standing after I “invested” a lot of gravel almost all summer long sooo. well, since I thought to myself, ask here – question is actually already above – where are there relatively cheap new, used, possibly repaired engines? is required a t5 or 2.5t…

  • Coolant loss

    Hello dear volvo community. Well, after having been proud and satisfied S40 ll d5 (bj 08) for 1, 5 years, I have a problem for the first time. I saw by chance that my coolant tank is only barely filled. Say: very far below minimum, about 1-2 cm from the visible container bottom. I then tilted coolant afterwards. After I drove about 20 km I looked in again and determined that the liquid is again at this place, however, the container does not get completely empty. After a look under the car I found a drop in irregular short distances. Approximately at height medium console. Can you only see Thursday to the workshop. Do you have any idea what this could be? Even a known weak spot? The BC does not give out any fault and the car has now 56tkm down. Thanks already to the stef.

  • big disaster: Dachreling on the V70 just dropped off

    Hello dear reader, today I am standing anner Tanke and wondering about the gap between my roof rail and the rubber piece. Be sure to be 5mm. So over to the left side and there looked: everything OK there. Then look over again to the right and a bit more closely. And look, the roof rail consists of an aluminium cast part screwed with the car and a snapped aperture. And on the inside of this aperture a halter is broken. No idea how this happened, the broken piece was still in between. My crossstays for the roof box at least did not fixed during the last vacation there behind. So next to the and a new part ordered. Or I drive in Koblenz through the washing system anner Araltanke and report it to the operator as damage greetings, Eric (how to formulate headlines to reach more readers I learned from Kai Dieckmann )

  • Daytime running light /TFL LED installation in V70 III

    Hello municipality, I am shortly before the delivery of my 6th Volvo ́s and the topic day running light has packed me. Through the Bi – Xenon headlights is an LED – TFL under the aspects 1. Longevity Xenon and 2. Energy saving worth some thought. When browsing the net I stumbled over the variant LEDay Flex of the company Hella ( www.tagfahrlicht.com ). According to the view of individual pictures of the front of the V70 offers to me the area of the plastic cladding fog lights, here are in the upper row 6 holes (ventilation or similar picture) available. What do you hold of this variant, is a installation at this place or is already someone who has installed so or similar his TFL. Thank you for your opinion

  • List of defects XC60

    We all know that the XC 60 is a great car, unfortunately it also has very dark dark sides, to keep the overview a list with please add: 1. Exhaust gas in the interior by standing heating 2. high consumption (missing gasoline) 3. annoying noises by motor + wind 4. light behaviour with switched off engine 5. frozen windscreen wiper nozzles + missing windscreen wiper heater 6. function – automatic tailgate 7. complicated installation of mobile navigation systems …. wait for MY2011, maybe then the childhood diseases will be survived???? Gruss Cees PS. it’s about survival at Volvo – many don’t want to drive Chinese (image problem) the rest can only be bound by customer satisfaction as at SUBARU – Volvo is still a premium brand!!

  • But not the all-rounder, the Q5

    When I started looking for a car, I wanted a 4×4. GLK too small, X3 too old and uncomfortable; so only XC60 and Q5 remained. The Audi came, because of ugly, not in question, but reports after, the car is super, especially the quattro. The car image is poisonous, and I read several compares in it: always the filthy result, the Q5 above; and that’s why I looked for the car. Fortunately I found an antidote at Volvo in time. And today I found this. Painful, and a grin has drawn in my face:Video, you tube Oh so! My XC70 is coming this week.

  • Search pictures of the V50 R-Design / Newbie

    Hello Volvo community, After spending a long time in the Audi forum and my successor should become a Swede, there is from today a forum participant more in the moose area. Since I drive an Audi A3 Sportback 2.0 TDI for about one and a half years and this caused me the biggest problems for 2 months, I decided after longer consideration for a V50 D5. Among other things, I am interested in the R-Design package, especially the bodykit on the V50. Does any of you have pictures about the V50 with bodykit or does anyone know a link on the net? The search function did not yield anything and if someone should find a thread about this topic, sorry in advance. Thank you very much, Grus max

  • C30 R-Design with or without chassis?? Images (possibly in black)

    Hello people Ride the Faclift S-40 at the moment and have been looking for the already pictures with sports suspension. Now, however, hollow me the C30 with R-Design Packet in black incl. orginal 17 rims. Now my question as far as I come the Packet R-Design standart moderate (at least in Switzerland) not with sports suspension(20mm low). Now how sporty does this look like from your opinion after without 20mm lower or is that almost obligatory for this sporty maschiene. Do you have pictures with 17 rims?? with 18 rims need no deeper installation either. But I’m not sure yet. How much does the retrofitting at the Volvo dealer of the original 20mm springs cost? Thanks guys

  • Tank control lamp annoying

    Hello, now I get annoyed again over my tank control light. Although I have fuelled this morning, the tank warning light lights up on shortly after starting and leaving. At some point after 10 or 20 KM the tank indicator then shows fully and the lamp goes off. Can also happen that the process repeated after a short time display zero gasoline and indicator light is again. Would not like to expand the complete tank you do not get there from above ? mennzer
