From 211 km/h only metal screw valves are allowed in the rim Hello, I would be interested in which valves you drive so. According to the excerpt from the report list on pages 6 and 14 it says: quote: “For vehicles with a maximum design speed of more than 210 km/h only metal screw valves are allowed.” Unfortunately I had to find out that rubber valves were used with me, and my customer advisor does not know this clause. Is this regulation with you beka nnt and fulfilled? Greetings Manfred

I’m currently thinking about retrofitting a heater with my S80. I don’t know if I really do it yet. Here in the north, really cold days are very rare, but if they are there, it would be quite nice to have one. The heater of the diesel is getting a lot of criticism here. Is the Volvo stand heater for petrolers the same, or has nothing to do with it? I have also requested an offer for a Webasto Thermo Top P or C, according to my friend However, the Volvo SH is also produced by Webasto. Does anyone have any experience in retrofitting the different variants of petrol engines? Marcel

Today I changed my Pirelli 17 inches for the same big Michelin Alpin 2 winter tires (on Thor rim). I could not imagine how different tires of the same size can be. The Pirelles were hardly mobile at 2.8 bar, because bone hard. After pressure reduction to 2.5 slightly softer, but even stronger sensitivity on track grooves and all unevennesses, just bad, as described here often. The Michelin against: zero reaction to unevenness, More comfortable rolling off at 2.7 bar. I will certainly not use the Pirelle summer. I already told the dealer, let’s see if he can come up with something. A real impression on the part of Volvo to deliver a vehicle with these tires. Greeting Renesomi

Hello, I’ve had the problem since now 2 1/2 years that my V70 D5 (EZ: 06/2002, KM: 102000 ) is crooked to the left side ( especially well recognisable at the rear ). At the time I can connect this with a loud crash at the back right when driving a slightly lowered gully cover after a change on winter bikes. I had already asked for this several times in 2 Volvo workshops. The first answer at that time was reasonable: “The 1 cm differences at the rear right ( higher ) and d also front left ( lower ) are still in the tolerance range according to Volvo ” !!! At a 2nd workshop I had also put this point forward, but they had also not found anything. Meanwhile all stabilizers, a coupling rod, the front crossbars, the shock absorbers completely ( incl. spring front ) were replaced, mostly on their own account! This tilting position makes itself stronger in roads, which slightly fall to the left noticeable, the car then tilts much more strongly d i hang wrong in the seat !! the steering behavior / driving behavior has changed noticeably. I will ask my Volvo dealer one last time possible causes of this problem. If Volvo should not be able to tell me these causes, it was that. The car then comes away and that was the first and also the last Volvo ! but I will still be able to write a nice reader’s letter to one or more major automobile magazines and still a little Who Is it possible that someone in the forum still has an idea for finding the cause or how to proceed ? Greetings, beam_me_up2

Hello, I need from you for/reciprocating equipment details: I swirl between a D5 momentum or the summum model. I just can’t decide whether the leather/electrical seat/the Xenon headlight/rings are worth the extra charge. Have now a V70 as premium (electrical seat is nice…) Furthermore, it is clear that I need the rear parking help. Why will the front be installed at the dealer? What costs do I have to reckon with? Do you have it with the darkened windows in the back? Or do you prefer the laminated glass? What’s against the Volvo phone? Do you have the Volvo phone in the V70 and I’m completely satisfied with it? GT yes or no! I would have said yes right away until last week. Now, after reading the forum, I’m disturbed by the possible problems and the extra consumption! Then the painful topic price. what’s realistic at the moment. I’ve been to my dealer 4 weeks ago. I found this conversation very unsettling. First 10% Rabat t- ok can overlook it, but that he then offers a financing with RSV (GMBH) and never bothers to write down my address…I don’t know.. this sales manager only tried when I mentioned that I got my V70 out of the inspection.Maybe I shouldn’t wear sneakers if I want to buy a car for 45T€. Generally, the question is, which dealer in NRW can you recommend. Greetings Harald

A new problem with my XC90. For 2 days the Geartronic has been switching from the 2nd to the 3rd gears with a slight blow. The whole thing is also understandable with the manual switching lane. When driving in the city traffic it is also noticeable that if you walk off the gas and let the car roll, it takes a while until it is switched on and then again with a noticeable jerk. Before I drive again, maybe someone can help me here earlier already. n. Hope not that a gearbox damage in the GT is announced, because then this would be the definitely most expensive Volvo I’ve ever driven (repairable) Gruss Stephan
