Hello Volvogemeinde, I wouldn’t have thought about that after just 2 years of running my V 70 (EZ5/2008): On the door hinge of the driver’s door there is considerable rust infestation!! (see photo) According to VCG, the customer service has failed to grease the hinge, which the dealer naturally denies. He says that the primer of the hinges was probably forgotten during installation. The repair runs now at the expense of the dealer (rost scrape, re-prime, paint finished! Supposedly it is an individual case. Who has experience with it? Greeting your volvo lover (unfortunately not so much…)

Request for purchase advice V70 D5 AWD Automatic
Hello together! I’m about to decide to buy a V70 D5 AWD Automatic. What makes me waver in my decision is the extra consumption for AWD & Automatic and the sports suspension. Question , the sports suspension (cars also laid deeper) is more uncomfortable than the normal one, you can feel every stone on the road… How is the consumption to be assessed ….Figures on average 7.1 …I think rather 8-9L … Does anyone have experience with this car ? Thanks for the info

I’m waiting…
Hello dear forum, I’m waiting for my new XC60 D5 automatic. According to the dealer, it should arrive with him around 04.04.2012. If this really works, I would have been really lucky with a delivery time of only 8 weeks. Since the waiting is cruel, and I’m sure that there are some fellow sufferers, I open this new topic for distraction by exchange. A bit like as a little child before Christmas. On the one hand you are full of anticipation for the gifts, on the other hand, the painful waiting for the besser is hard to bear. Although is not my first new car, but as bad as this time it has never been…. Have fun, Christian

TMC at the new Sensus
Have my XC60 now for 5 days and I’m really excited. I also find the new Sensus great, as an old VAG/Opel-Navi user hardly any conversion problems. Only one thing I miss the list of TMC medications at the push of a button. I have always called up before the morning start in the professional traffic. At Sensus I did not find a corresponding function. The traffic jams are displayed in the map, but I lack a list of traffic obstructions with indication of the length. Is there a trick or is this function missing?

Best solution for music streaming
Hello community! Since the S90 is my first car without a CD player and I slowly but surely feel like music, which does not come exclusively from FM radio, would interest me which is the ideal solution for music streaming? Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Play Music,…? What does this look like? Open the app on your mobile phone and send music via Bluetooth to the Sensus? For me as an end-forties a bit difficult to get in and change myself. Thank you for your tips. LG, Nordisk.

Audio system: High Performance plus SubW or even Premium Sound B&W?
Hello everyone, I already ordered, but can still change the configuration. Maybe someone had the opportunity to compare the two audio systems somewhere? I really fluctuate between HP and PS, because PS requires a considerable extra charge. How is the quality of Volvo audio systems like the standard HP? Wouldn’t that, together with the extra subwoofer, allow a fairly clean and sufficiently strong sound even when driving faster? I know, probably now still a lot of coffee set reading…but to start the discussion about this can’t hurt and I guess that one or the other will come to “hearable experiences” faster than myself. I am happy about your experiences, views, forecasts, speculations etc. Thank you very much.

Start pre-climatization via app
Hallows together, I think it is well known that you can start the climate with our vehicles by app. In winter with heaters, in summer to air, even with vehicles without heating. Since the app update and the compulsion there to the new design, it no longer works with vehicles without heating. I wrote to Volvo about this, what that should be. I added the answer as a picture. I find it an unding to deactivate a function that you have purchased. I liked to use the last year, when it was warm. Can they simply delete functions without compensation? I think if I want to have this examined or ask if they can easily. Greeting Daniel

Questions Configuration V90 charge
Good evening, I’m currently driving a V90 T6 description of 21 and I’m basically very satisfied, so the next one is supposed to be almost the same (V90 T8 ultimate). However, I have a few questions: – in the configurator I can choose perforated leather and electrically adjustable seats, but I don’t find any ventilated seats. I can’t do that anymore? I found that very pleasant. Are the seats otherwise identical to the BJ 22 (I have / don’t want to have Sprtsitze)? – I now have a petrol-powered heater (winter package). It’s great. In the manual I find the heater as an option, then I should sit in the front right wheel box. I can’t find anything in the configurator. Is there still a heater? Is the possible series electric? If electric, how are your experiences? I don’t use a garage and want to start comfortably even in the winter. My current has the sense of being better, but the infotainment is in my opinion already a weak spot compared to others (BMW / MB), as an example of voice control, the display and the user interface, because I want to be more convenient in advance?

Cannot open rear door! Volvo XC90 2
Hello everyone, I have been having the following problem for some time: The rear right door cannot be opened. If you open or close the door, you can clearly hear that the locking mechanism works. Nevertheless, the door does not open. The handle on the outside has no resistance. The handle on the inside has resistance but nevertheless the door does not open. I have already cut off the door and side panels and try to push the lock up in various ways. It is stuck. I am very upset that such problems occur with a Fzg. This class. Has anyone had a similar problem? Is there a simple solution to drive to the Volvo workshop and pay a lot of money? I am grateful for every tip.

ADAC-> 8h Waiting period
Moin, I have to get rid of some frustration and would like to hear your opinion about it. On Monday my wife stayed with her car on the way to work. She then called the ADAC and they said to her “it would take about 8h” until someone comes by. ATTENTION to -12°C without a motor…. At the end of the story was that I packed up in the office and dragged my wife home. There was a quick search for the mistake and after 20min the little girl ran again…. Learned just now I’m not about any statistics or flights, but just about the “service”. I have ADAC Plus + partner card and pay accordingly my contribution. I’m also not about the money but simply about the fact that when something is, I want to get help. If I have to do everything myself then I can save the money and donate it to me now too and I can’t just be there in 5min. But I’m clear about the fact that in Berlin… I don’t want to get help. If I have to do everything myself then I can’t have to do it myself, I can’t have to say that I’t have to say that I’ve thought about the same thing about it.
