  • With XC90 two weeks through Sweden

    Hello together ! We were now two weeks with our XC90 in Sweden. First a week on Öland and then in Götheborg on home vacation for my wife. The XC90 is like made for the Swedish country road. Cruise pure and cruising ! Remarkable the many XC90 in Sweden. Every day we have seen up to fifteen, whereby the Swedes drive much more in green, red and white. Black and silver are there something back. Incidentally: The parking XC90 I have a closer a The Atlantis rim is very rare, the rear parking aid does not need a Swede (and I am so early about it and would like to have it at the front). To all those waiting: In the second week we had a wonderful view of the harbour facilities on Hissingen and every day the “mountain” of the XC90 ready for shipment grew under white foil. Then came again a ship and swops were all gone. Maybe there was one for you. I will get protest again, but how pleasant it was to drive in DK and SE with speed limit ! Especially during the return trip we noticed that in Puttgarden the switches of the drivers are unmolded and then pushed and driven aggressively ! The on-board computer by the way in DE an average speed of 115 km/h the hour indicated, although we tried to drive quickly with dense traffic (without traffic jam).

  • Help! 18″ CBS at S60

    Hello Leuts, some will remember, already a year ago I was looking for a few 18 inches for my S60. Now the standard 205ers have gone off and what is closer to do there than the upgrade NOW? Felge: BBS RK 7,5×18″ ET 42 Tires: Bridgestone S-03 Potenza 225/40 R18 The report I have now with me, there are the following conditions: 1.) By limiting the steering stop on the front axle, e.g. by Volvo parts no. 9473207, is a sufficient Fre 2.) If necessary, by rework in the area of the rear wheelhouse cut-out edge or the plastic inner fenders in this area, sufficient free access is to be achieved. In the same report, there is only one condition for the V70: the tyre load is not to be exceeded, which is no problem with the tyres with load 88. now my questions: has the V70 other wheelhouses front + rear, so that there are no runs ? Does any of you have similar tyre sizes? Were there problems with the registration, did something have to be changed on the vehicle? How problematic is a lowering of 18 inches? Is there any problem with this? Wouldn’t want to lower more than 40/30 or 30/30 (feathers only) Can you get around the steering stop limiters with the help of a hot air gun by pressing in the front inner decots? What do I have to keep in mind? Thank you very much ! Ciao, Eric

  • Consumption V70D5 Geartronic

    Tach people, do I have to worry? Now after 9000 km and 2 months have a calculated average consumption of 8.5 liters. I drive in the field service a lot mix, wants hot city/country/motorway. On the highway however I very rarely drive towards topspeed, rather so 150. I am also not a friend of Kavalierstarts o.ä. So all in all a nevertheless rather more sedated Volvo driver. Since the search function is switched off, I could not use the reports of other D5 friends. Would be nice if I lost a few words. Thank you very much.

  • Correct my statement regarding XC90

    So, I said in another Fred I find the XC90 pott ugly. I looked at it again…. It’s not sooo bad, I just don’t like the copied tail lights, that reminds me of the V70 (which I have). I saw him at the dealer with Heico rims and quite emboldened> 67,000€ . That’s also a word. Well, not for bad, Greeting Flodder

  • New moose introduces itself – XC70

    Hello together So, he’s finally here! My XC70 D4 Summum seashell Metallic. I drove 80km today and I’m thrilled. Optics 1+ with *, driving comfort 1+, equipment also top marks! Sensus top, many adjustment options, after a few clicks also very understandable. The D4 unobtrusive and powerful, with shift paddles when overtaking the highway very pleasant to act. The car glides there formally. Volvo on call is unlocked next week, because still lacks the active music via USB ran immediately, also connection of the iphone. Just via FS on the phone, everything as it should. Today in the heat the ventilated soft leather seats tried out – a delight! Seashell just the right color, is a bit darker than on the pictures, the rims in diamond cut absolutely fitting to it. My dream car!!! I can’t say more yet. Soon in this thread more photos and reports. Must drive about 300 km on Monday, then more. Greeting Tom

  • “new” V60 on board

    Dear comrades and readers, after a long search I finally found out and can pick up my used V60 on Friday. The last 4 years and about 140,000km I was very satisfied with Toyota Prius 2, which is now to be replaced after 206 tkm. For long tours I wish with a little more comfort and performance, the quality impression of the successor did not convince me and so the search started. A/B/M drove me partly, their image did not. b from the bar for me only the star left, I used to like to drive. However, the already with the little ones in the insurance are quite expensive, so that I looked over the edge of the box… The V60 fits of format and I liked for a long time, driving assistance, sliding roof and rear camera were mandatory, D3 seemed reasonable to me. Until I realized that the D5 in the insurance is not more expensive and compared to many competitors even cheap… Long speech, no S inn… Who already has, it has become a V60 D5 AWD, 215 hp from 8/11. Unfortunately not in color (black) and without roofing (I find pretty), but otherwise very fine equipped. SUMMUM me xenium, driving assistance, driving dynamics and safety comfort package. 105tkm, first hand, with Volvo Selekt, new inspection, HU/AU and WR under 20k€, I am happy that Volvo does not disappoint me and now look forward to the delivery on Friday. Ah so, I am by the way Christian, 36 years j I have finally accepted that I have arrived at “my” brand now. PS: Thank you for making mistakes with my mobile phone, I will edit that from the PC…

  • V70II 2.4T no longer starts

    Hello, I have been the proud owner of a V70II for 5 weeks, a car I always wanted to have. Unfortunately, he hasn’t started for a week and I’m in despair shortly before. I saved a while for it and then bought privately. Is year 2001, with the 2.4T and has run now ~340.000km. What I noticed in the time when he was still running: – jumps warm super bad – jerks in the standing gas when it is warm – has not gotten really warm despite a long distance ( what was done with new thermostat) – motor control light approached three days after purchase – error message P0422 Then one evening when I came home from work and wanted to continue 20 minutes later, it doesn’t start any more. It turns three times quite strong, “swallows then very briefly and afterwards it turns only weak and felt without pressure. To do anything more. It also doesn’t work. After that compression was measured – it is actually too low cylinder 1-3: ~8.5 bar Zylin the 4-5: ~9.5 bar In addition, another software was read out and it spit out an error message for the throttle flap: P0121. Now I have of course asked a few people who also screws and have quite different opinions. From: engine damage because simple too little compression up to can not be, that still has to start. I am done with the nerves and would like to drive it on. Gasoline arrives, ignition spark is available. ht has someone here still an idea or can generally say about the problems – I would be happy about any approach! Greetings, Basti

  • S80 error message ESP & ABS

    I write here for a good friend. He drives an S80 MY99 6 cylinder Automatic 150KW MKB: B6304S3 Now to his problem: the moose runs quite normal, suddenly the Lambda lamp comes out and at the same time ABS and ESP fails. When was read out by VIDA he unfortunately did not have to print the protocol. Can now only reflect what was told him. Lambda probes defective, ABS sensor defective, cat defective, or control part defective. Now one part after another should geta The connection between Kat and the ABS or ESP unit can only be explained to me that the cat is really over and the moose switches into the emergency program and switches things like ESP and ABS off. With my guess I might have been right there? Was there ever such a case and how was there the solution ?? Thanks already for your help. Greeting Patrick

  • Engine damage, house number and advice

    When I checked the compression, it was also clear – 3 cylinders are at 7-8 bar, one is only at 6bar, one is completely over. That is, a repair of the valve is no longer possible, because the piston rings are also through. If then replacement engine, the rest of the car is already repaired, economic is long gone, but I would like to save the car. My workshop has the following rough calculation a Motor 1500 Execution and installation 2500 with conversion of all secondary agregates + liquids. Believe that could get there – what do you say? That the engine is done is clear + question is whether you get the installation cheaper. Here it would be made with guarantee at least on the installation and by the professional without murklei and speedy.

  • Workshop history (e.g. entryable data)

    Who has already been able to view and/or find out about their Volvo workshop history? What is registered with date and km status? * Warranty services, recalls = I expect. * What about regular inspections/repairs and warranties (repairs)? * Other (e.g. timing belt change)? A cooperative operation is at least ready to provide oral information about the entries. Who can therefore report on its experiences? The “workshop history” is an Volvo Dtld. does not want to know the history of my vehicle, dto. formerly Italy. Volvo holds the hand over this data (so also the expression on the pages: “Property of Volvo Car Corporation”, although there is no ownership of data and data protection reasons for lack of indirect or direct personal reference, which is often not given for pure machine data, also does not apply. This is a hot topic, see only https://iot.taylorwessing.com/ …/. But that’s not the point here either, because I don’t want to know if I can get to know the history.
