Tyre condition still good. – Body has some scratches and small traces of usage around it, but is a garage vehicle and the paint is not matt or futile. I uploaded some pictures from the vehicle.

  • Sporadic whimpering, ratters at partial load or gas removal, which then disappears again.

    Once again I have something nervous again with a somewhat helpless workshop. I had a noise in the city traffic months ago, which actually sounded like if I had captured a piece of cardboard or garbage and dragged in the wheel box (no metallic screeching, rather a grinding), which then was simply gone after the standstill and did not occur anymore. But lately it comes sporadically again. With slower ride with the description as usual, at 7 0 -90 km/h but rather more high frequency for a short time, if I drive rather with partial load, or roll. Then it sounds more like a higher frequency whimpering. Usually only for a few short seconds and then away again. My OHL describes it rather as if you are dragging something along, or like the sound of the “glucky wheel”, where the ratting is then rather a whimpering. At load it has never occurred, so even at full gas no noise. In curves nothing perceptible, even at unevenness nothing. I can feel it in the steering wheel, which also meant that it was quite clear in the popometer on the passenger seat…but he doesn’t have an idea. Drive waves outside sound different, wheel bearings should start singing at curves. I simply have it straight ahead…without load, without floor waves. Now I should keep driving until it gets worse and much clearer, but my OHL finds the Idea stupid and by the way, we always have 2 kayaks on the roof, so it’s a bit complicated with the assistance in case of an emergency.

  • C70 1 Cabrio – battery empty, door locked, lock defective

    Hello everyone, now a very stupid problem with my beautiful boy has caught me. After a few days of service, for whatever reason, the battery has gone away. My son was on the road with the car and when he noticed this he has closed the car with the FB without telling me anything. The problem is that the cylinder of the door lock is defective and I can no longer get into the car. But the trunk goes open manually. If anyone of you knows if you can get over the backleuch My other idea was to open the convertible deck over the manual emergency lock. I know that you can close it over the trunk. But is it also possible to open it this way? Unfortunately, the tool A for emergency lock is in the glove compartment, so I can’t get there… But it should also be safe with an appropriate screwdriver. Otherwise I’ve heard that the ADAC has a kind of inflatable cushion for such cases, with which you can open the door a gap. Would in the case of the door handle unlock the car? For helpful tips I am very grateful to you. Deconet

  • Gasoline vs. Diesel

    Good day dear forum, I’m new here and new in the area of Volvos. I have a long dream to drive an old Volvo & fell in love with the old v70 as well as the 850, in the end I would decide for the 850 because I have read a lot and thus the decision fell to the 850. Now to my question there is almost no diesel on the market probably for good reason, but I found a “good” volvo 850 which I would best drive to my end, it’s a gasoline engine that would survive good me with regular maintenance and inspection or fails the engine? Must drive 42km daily to work (one distance) Sincerely

  • Brake discs (alternatives?), change + life V70 II?

    Next week I get my 2.5T (BJ07) with approx. 55000km. Brake technology everything seems so far ok. From when can be expected with an exchange front and rear? I have 17″ rims with 225er on it (original). Sometimes there are parts from the Zubrhörer which cost a little more but technically bring an improvement. Does someone already have experience with the V70II with e.g. other brake discs and coverings? I mean naturally which one can understand as normalo and often such modifications are rather a burden for the account without any real added value. For me, at best, an advantage comes in terms of wetness. Otherwise, I am a city heini with short distance traffic. However, if on the highway then also speedily on the road. So far, I have always made the change of windows and coverings with my vehicles (except motorcycle). I would like to continue this also so ha However, should this be unusual with the Volvo from the power and the premises, I would like to know that before I break it up. Since an accident last year I have a ruined right wrist with little strength and mobility.

  • Build HU-603 AUX adapters yourself

    Hello, I wanted to ask if someone has ever built an AUX adapter themselves? Or does someone have a construction instruction for me? It would have to be possible instead of building a cable for the CD changer where you plug a jack plug into an iPod to listen to the music

  • D5 Tutbo Problems

    moin, moin, as I had already occasionally written, I had last received a new charge air cooler at my s80 d5. add a short history. 1) I drive too friendly to the 140,000 inspection and tell him that the car when giving gas extremely smokes, as well as if you drive fast. after the inspection rust of the car still. 2) on the first drive after the inspection I stay with bursting turbo hose. according to the friendly in Göttingen, where my car hung This bit was the reason for the clouds of smoke. it was supposed to be an ascending hose from below. 3) a short time later was my loading air cooler in the eimer and had to be exchanged. so now I come to the question to the experts. can this said hose have been a connection to the charging air cooler? can the bursting of the hose have led to the defective in the charging air cooler? then there would be the question whether the friendly the makerbi ss should have found if you already tell him that the car is fogging? greetings sven

  • Engine damage after oil dilution V50

    Hello dear Volvofans, now comes: Volvo V50 2006 Year of manufacture Engine: Diesel D5 Gearbox: Automatic Km: 25000 already has the third engine after two engine damage due to oil dilution! 1. Engine damage and change was at approx. 23000km (only engine change) 2. Engine damage and change at 25000km (motor change + injectors + turbocharger) Has anyone ever heard of this? OIL RENEWAL ! I suspect the oil dilution comes from the automatic regeneration of the particulate filter and the The vehicle always seems to try to regenerate the particulate filter. Volvo is currently testing and testing! It is not an isolated case … check your oil level before changing the oil! The oil is very thin and smells like diesel. To the engine damage it is actually only at full load on the highway. Volvo has no explanation yet…do you have a? are you aware of other cases? Thank you and greetings Grisu86

  • Add and install Parrot 3200 LS-Color, what do you have to consider?

    Hello guys, I’ve just built a Parrot 3200 LS-Color from my old V50 (see photos) I don’t know what’s clear with 4 cables, because I think I’ve pulled off a part of the waterfall console now, but I can’t immediately check that because the battery of the old V50 is almost empty. It’s a red, black, orange and yellow cable from the blue box of the Parrot into the car interior. The yellow cable seems to pull somewhere towards the trunk. The red cable went towards the ignition. You can see the cables clearly in the photos. Since these cables ran from the car into the Parrot, and I have now pulled them off, I wonder where these cables have to lead now without the Parrot in the Volvo. Or can I just leave them in the air? Can someone help me? I know the description is very vague and the Parrot is already an older model… I just found a Youtube video, at m However, the kit seems to have been installed a little differently:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Cmmq4Bf__M Thanks for a few tips 13112617
