  • XC60 – 24 months service with approx. 35000km – costs

    Hello dear community, was short with my 2 year service, mileage to date about 35,000km. At the service was made with the climate compressor something still on warranty, was of course free. The price for the service alone then really threw me off the socks – € 577.75,- with VAT. Is that normal? 1 liter oil € 26.58,- without VAT? In the plant still my scanned invoice, a few free positions, since warranty case.

  • How fast does XC60 D5 AWD heat (intrusive, today’s order)?

    Hello Volvogemeinde, will order me today an XC60 D5 AWD summum with xenium, dark disks, home link, AHK, electric silver, 19 inches… without Geartronic too hectic and unfortunately has the famous commemoration second. Now my question to the already happy owners of the moose: – how long does it take to warm up in winter after the cold start of the interior? – is possibly a stationary heating of advantage (even if not activated beforehand) to get warm air faster with the heater ugen? – “sucks” the heater the battery quickly empty (runs a lot of short distance)? Drive an Audi A4 diesel and it will be warm after 5 minutes at the latest. I am grateful for every answer. VG, Pezebub

  • Afterblow

    Hello everyone, ElchWiki says the following about Afterblow: Quotation: The function Afterblow (also dry blowers) serves to dry the air conditioning or the air conditioning automatic. In Volvos the P2x platform is switched on about 50 minutes after the car is switched off. This then runs after about 7 minutes. Drying of the plant is necessary to prevent mold formation and the growth of bacteria, which in the damp environment of the air filter and the hoses sun The air conditioning system not only cools the air blown into the interior but also dries the resulting condensation water must therefore be “blown away” after the system has stopped. During operation, the condensation water normally drips onto the road. The whole operation only works at an outside temperature of over 24 degrees, with a battery voltage of more than 19.7 volts and only every 20 hours. areupdate already recorded ex works, with others it can be played on guarantee and with some it is only by software update (approx.15 EUR). It should be noted that following software updates can put the function back out again. So it is recommended to ask after each visit to the elk doctor whether the function is still activated. The function is available from model year 1998. Quote end. Can someone tell me where the 19.7 volt battery voltage comes from ?!?!? Have i ch a board in front of the head or is the number wrong? Thanks Martin

  • XC 60 interior colour

    Hello, my V60 has to be returned soon. Now there is an offer of an XC60 in the room that I can’t knock out. However, a theme plagues me: the interior color. Outside it should become mussel blue. With the Lesath rims. Inside I want the linear walnut as insert. Black leather on the sports seats looks chic, but I don’t want the third generation with black interior. I have therefore imagined the bright leather with black interior / roof. but I don’t see a real alternative. Aside from black again, because the color mixes (black/brown and black/white) appear somewhat incongruous in the configurator. So to everyone: Does someone have the light leather and can say something to discolor (and subsequently decolorize), or does someone have the combi seats and can possibly deliver “real” pictures? Thank you and greetings, Florian

  • Gearbox defective

    Hello dear community, First of all thanks for this forum, I have read a lot here and almost always found a solution. Now I have a bigger problem. I drive a V70 MJ ’98. 2,0l/ 126hp/ M56 manual gearbox (?). I have for some time a strong hum from about 50km/h front left. Will be louder at higher speed. The wheel bearing is about 5000Km old from MEYLE. The joint of the drive shaft wheel side is new (SKF). Now we have the car in front up and The right wheel turned much faster than the left wheel. Also, you could hardly hold the right wheel, the left one already. Now my question: since I think it is the differential, can you fix it? Or get a new used one? Thank you in advance.

  • Swedish for beginners and problems on the highway

    Hello dear people, since yesterday have a V70 of 9/2006 136 KW. , 90tkm and 1 year used car warranty. The car is an import from Sweden and thus the instruction in Swedish and all messages of the onboard computer. Now the following problems arise: Lt documents was the last maintenance before 1500 km, nevertheless it shows in connection with a yellow triangle a message, which sounds to me very much motor and maintenance (“motorsystem serv. erfordras”. Another error message kö In addition, I would like to know what else it says. 1. Can you change all this in German or English? 2. Where do I get a German manual? 3. I drove the first longer route today. On the highway at 190 km/h (t Tacho and a little over 3000 rpm) he had a kind of push-off. That means he accelerates relatively normal up to about 190, then nothing works anymore (feels like a kind of brake parachute) , it goes then down to about 160 and after a few seconds you can accelerate again and the game starts again from the front. I’m curious about your answers Thank you

  • HELP!!! – Where do the sudden steering noises come from ???

    Hello Elkgemeinde, I’m just back from a shopping tour, and when parking suddenly this funny noise occurs.I want to describe it like this:”easy fast bright crackling noises” (while steering in the stand, as well as during pre- and reset) This occurs even with a light and fast changing, as well as with full steering movement.It is however not the known cracking of the drive shafts!!! (This has been fixed already a long time ago) It is externally not to e no game on the wheels – no servo oil loss – etc. The S80 has just 75 tkm on the clock. Some things have been fixed. But what could that be again? Maybe:- Steering gearbox ?- Servo pump ? I’m not sure about that, because it can’t be located on the road exactly.Of course, this is also happening again when it’s Friday, 6:00 p.m., so that you don’t have a chance for a reasonable diagnosis from the dealer. And the best thing – my dealer has his workshop occupied again on Monday. Did anyone of you have an idea, or a similar known problem?I would be more reassuring if now would not necessarily follow bad answers.But still thank you for any information or assistance.

  • Power missing sporadic

    Moin, after I had to make sure it wasn’t the gas system, I can create the thread today. I have been on the road a little longer without gas and can detect identical problems with both fuel versions. What almost always happens is the acceleration in the 5th gear (6speed switch) from 2500 u/min and from about 3500u/min a vibration and a noticeable power decrease. After I drove about 30km of motorway this morning and at an exit short g I wanted to move into the flowing traffic and suddenly after a short boost the performance was completely missing! No message in BC and a short time later everything is again iO. things like gas filters etc. do not escape, because only 20tkm on gas and problems also without gas exist. Spark plugs are now about 45tkm in and therefore not yet due. Drosselklape is from Bosch (2005er BJ) and should actually be no problem. On Thursday I will probably first the memory au However, I would be interested in the possible sources of error in advance. What do you think?

  • Buy Volvo D5

    Tach, I looked around and my next vehicle will probably become a Volvo. I would like to have a V70 D5 with 185 hp and automatic. There is something to consider. A colleague said the car would be repair-prone, but I don’t know if he just wanted to make me unsure for fun, I didn’t find much here, so I assume that the cars are relatively robust. …and then I would be interested in the topic with the 2Takt engine oil as fuel addition. I didn’t find anything in this forum (maybe I’m too stupid as well). Does none of you put this in the car? … oh yes and still the request for a short info, to which friend I can turn in Cologne trustingly, if something is broken. Thank you…

  • And another newcomer!

    Hello Volvo community! I couldn’t keep my fingers still yesterday and showed myself for the first time during a hot discussion. I have been following this forum for a long time to get information. Since I was reminded yesterday I wanted to introduce myself now officially. After a few years Audi I bought a Volvo V70 D5 Sport Edition from 05/2007 (black as the night) about a 3/4 year ago. I could already win some tips from this forum – thank you! I’m sorry I didn’t follow the rules, but I’m sorry I didn’t follow the rules.
