  • Smoke from steering wheel column and tackers of the belt warning signal

    Hello guys, this is my first post in this forum. I’ve had my Volvo V40 (built at the end of 2003) for four weeks now and I’m very happy with him overall. He was already in the workshop three times – but because of small things (e.g. squeaky belt, broken xenon burner etc.) Now he’s complaining again. And I noticed during the ride home from the Whitsun weekend on the highway that sometimes very light white smoke from the steering column a In addition, the belt warner suddenly taps irregularly, although I am strapped on. The flashing noise and the signal of the belt warner seem to have the same source. I was already in the workshop of my trust today. But they have no cause. But it goes on: again and again white smoke (but very low) and tackers. After my first research on the Internet, the problem seems to be known, but rather to occur with different VW models. The reason is usually the relay or the flash switch. The resolution of the question, but what was the cause really, almost always remains open. I am perplexed. What else can I do? Does anyone else have an idea of you? Best regards, Paddox

  • Accessories Paint

    Hello, I just wanted to ask if one of you has already used paint from the accessories and how the experiences were. Since I want to paint the whole bumper and the original Volvo paint probably only in 150ml or 250ml cans, for ~30 € piece, I would like to find a cheaper alternative. I had found this: http://www.ebay.de/…/371112852094?… Thanks already!

  • 240 GL tire HELP!

    Hello to all the friends of the old Swedes! …I have discovered a very well preserved Volvo 240, clawed and prepared … but I don’t want to add Volvo wheels but rather something more unusual if possible. Who can help me with the biggest possible rims as wide as possible and the matching rubbers….. I don’t want to have to change anything at the original Blech. I found rims with tyres: 7×16 ET20 / 205/55-16 W91 …is that the maximum dimension, or is it possible to even bigger and what do I have to do to consider other rim manufacturers – Distance Discs? ..etc please Help!

  • No more Pixel LED at Ultimate – Chip Deficiency

    I wanted to order a C40 Ultimate Twin yesterday. Unfortunately, this didn’t work today, as Volvo yesterday spontaneously set the Pixel LED for Xc c. Internally it says that the BLPs should be reduced by 1000€, because the equipment is missing. Unfortunately, this is not yet incorporated in the configurator. Accordingly, the dealer can not make an offer for a Ultimate, because in his program the prices are not yet adjusted. He also said that it may even be that despite 1,000€ Raba The leasing rate increases compared to Pixel LED, as the popular equipment could cause the residual value to fall considerably. However, the leasing rate may also decrease. If I find both stupid, I absolutely wanted the Matrix LED and therefore decided against the Model Y. My wife ordered an XC40 Twin two weeks ago, as plus, since she does not attach any importance to Matrix. Now, because of the panoramic roof, she is considering upgrading to the Ultimate, if the rate is favorable The C40 is the P8 Thunder Grey Tailored Wool (I find the V90/V60 mega, let’s see how it is with the C40) 20 inch tinted windows

  • Electric window lifter: can only be used with running engine after Service 2.0?

    Moin, I had my XC40 Mj2019 T4 last week for the fourth inspection. I’m very sure that I could run down the windows before the Service 2.0 even when the ignition was only switched on; I always do it in the heat to set the navigation and music before I start the engine. Now after the Service 2.0 the window lifters only react when the engine is running. Was therefore today again at the Volvo workshop: there is no known if with the new software where something was changed rde; they have now sent a service request to Volvo. Answer should come over the week. Does anyone else have the problem after a recent Service 2.0? CU Fred

  • Knopfgeräsch with cold engine c70 1 cabrio

  • Deactivate immobilizer (VDO with black pen)

    Moin together. I wanted to disable the WFS on my 850 and had found a good guide in another forum in which it was explained which contacts have to be bridged in the controller of the WFS directly on the board in order not to have to search the cables. Unfortunately this forum has been offline for days and I have not saved the guide. Therefore my question: Does anyone know which contacts have to be bridged in order to disable the WFS? I would like to deactivate them before she gives up the geis. Also, the thing with the pen is annoying and we don’t want to steal the car anyway. Thanks for your tips, Eric

  • Tank indicator V40 1.8

    Hello, I’ve been having a problem with my tank indicator for quite some time now, which quittered your service after I wanted to go home to work. The tank indicator continued to sink into the reserve area until at some point the reserve lamp turned on, a full tank had no purpose, remained constant in the reserve area with reserve light over several days. Meanwhile, however, when the car starts to show me a minimum tank content, this during the drive into the reserve area sinks to rise to maximum during the ride, which is not true, since only half the tank content is still available. Look forward to your answers.
