Hello! On the weekend I found out by chance that there is water in the footroom of the rear seat seat! (Only in the footroom behind the driver’s seat) (Only in the footroom behind the driver’s seat) After I sucked it out with a wet suction cup, it was about 4 LITER! For about 2-3 weeks I had a slightly muffy smell in the vehicle, but it was really extreme! So I didn’t think about it. I thought the foot mats were wet due to the constantly wet shoes, more than that. Had a lot of rain in the north lately. Symptoms: -Water in the footroom behind the driver’s seat, all other footrooms are 100% dry! -Lightly muffy smell -on the front window are every few days (not always & not necessarily rain) at the start of the journey 2-3 small water drops on the passenger side on the inside of the top I thought: can be Dondenzwasser because of the humidity in the vehicle?!!! -After I took the door seal at the rear left door I put light smear film and light mold under the seal and only on the area? Can’t be easy?

Hot circuit – heating permanently heats
Hello, I hope you can answer my questions about my heating problem. Or at least help me on the jumps ; ) I changed the heat exchanger in my 2004 Volvo V50 T5 last year. I had to remove the center console and the middle fittings in order to get to the box with the heat exchanger. Now I opened it and replaced the heat exchanger, then everything was assembled again and everything ran as before. But now I found out that the heating blows out very hot in the footroom of the passenger and it gets unbearably warm at warm outside temperatures. My first guess was that I did not have the housing surrounding the heat exchanger properly closed so that air exits sideways as soon as the main fan is on. I checked this today and determined that everything is in order and the housing even has a build-related opening to the incoming and outgoing lines, which allows a small air flow from the housing. Ok, as far as I’m good. Now to my questions: 1. Is it right that the heat exchanger is also switched down with the cooling temperature?

V50 consumes more than 1L engine oil at 100Km!!
What’s a problem with the car for weeks, that I don’t explain it to myself, so I ask for a tip! 7 months ago I bought a car (Volvo V50, petroler 178 tkm) from dealers. It made a good impression and went through the TÜV despite errors in the exhaust system (red light), which was later repaired. A few weeks ago I checked the engine oil level and there was nothing in it! The car behaved quite normal and there was no engine oil indicator!! Immediately 4L 10W40 shook in and drove. Within 2 weeks I had to refill another 5L, although my driving performance is maximum 300km/week. Last week I changed oil and filter, this time with 5W30. Yesterday, exactly one week later and after about 300 km of driving performance there is no oil in the engine! Here are few corner data: – No oil stains on the parking lot – no unusual smoke from the exhaust – car performance is normal – no unusual noise to hear – fuel consumption at just over 10 L/100 km – driving behaviour: I don’t know about 50 of it as a school.

Repair the grille yourself!
So dear Elche! There is V40, which have a radiator grill with Volvo emblem, which is not quite crooked. But has a gray matte paint. In winter, where it was very cold, plastic has the property to break quickly. The bonnet is open, you make it carefully, grabs into the radiator grille and booms break off individual lamellas. A new radiator grill costs here in Slovakia from 60 euros, with the friendly one even more. What did I do: I sort myself in a building shop (Maxbar, Baumaxe etc.) a relative thin plastic strip and a gluer of 2 fabrics ( Resin and Hardener). Glue time max. 5 min. from UHU. The plastic strip is cut too correctly, also filing and without glue fitted. Then glue together from glue and use the missing lamella with glue. Until then, I have to make a nice again, so 5-20 minutes. You can make it on the car, then you should sit on a chair, because it takes a glue hard. Or to expand the cooler from the basement to the cooler. Then the paint has to be expanded.

Purchase advice V40 2.0L Diesel
Hello together, my wife and I are looking for a V40 diesel. On weekends we have some viewing dates for different V40. Our selection is limited to vehicles from EZ 2016, diesel max. 1200€ For this we often find the D2 with between approx. 80 000 and 130000 km. Also some D3. Since we did not have a Volvo myself I would like to ask you what places to pay attention and what we should pay attention to during the test drive. Are there known weak points on the mentioned vehicles? Are there any model change, engine change or changes since 2016 the advantages or disadvantages have? Are there from a certain mileage on engine, gearbox or particulate filter problems? Are the assissent systems defective? Sorry that I come to you immediately with so many questions, but currently we have quite a lot of small repairs on our BMW and Peugeot so we hope to be better served with a Volvo. I only know Volvo from the truck area and these are the one real premium brand.

Air conditioning
Since spring, I have been the owner of a V40 T2 Bj. at the end of 2015. In case of a demand in a Volvo workshop, I learned that there is no air conditioning maintenance planned for the regular service. With my previous vehicle (Toyota) I had a climate maintenance carried out about every three years in a very friendly and inexpensive Chevrolet car house (49€ without coolant). Every time, coolant was refilled and explained to me that a certain loss was normal. If there was clearly too little coolant, the compressor could take damage. The lubrication is in the coolant. What does it look like in this regard with the V40, doesn’t want to wait until something is broken?

V40 T3 Automatic – high fuel consumption when starting up
Hi Volvo friends. I need your support today, from drivers of a V40 with automatic transmissions. I drive a T3 (MY 2017) and have a fuel consumption of about 38.8 l/100km when starting up. This always occurs in the following situation: – The car stands level – I start the car and switch to D – now I only take the foot off the brake without touching the accelerator. So let the car roll up. – now the current verb also rises to up to 38.8 l/100km, but after some time sinks again to “normal” values. – an equally high consumption arises when starting/normal acceleration at traffic lights.My question therefore: Is this also the case with other automatic drivers or how high is the verb also in these situations with you? Note on the edge: My dealer has asked for this reason in Sweden and the Antwprt get, one may exchange the swimmer in the tank. He as well as I have to do with us and Sweden what the consumption should not have to do with the swimmer.
