  • New V60 – and now?

    Moin together! I was there again today and looked at the new V60, sat in it and tried this and that. And now, I’m infected and don’t know where to take the flap 60 mille from to treat my infection. No, I don’t go there during opening hours and no, I don’t drive it sample either. I’m already infected and it shouldn’t get worse… Man, this is a fancy part!!! So, another topic or a question to the old V60 I would have: The newer V60, that is the one with the Facelift from 2014, has 3 water spray nozzles under the hood, my Vorfacelift has only 2 nozzles on the hood. Does someone happen to know if I can use the 3-nozzle variant instead of the 2-nozzle variant? I fall into my V60 dreams again… Have a nice Sunday! Greetings from Max

  • Coolant loss on D2

    Hello Volvo specialists, unfortunately I had to forcibly separate myself from my good old V40 1.9D BJ2004, as such a kasper is driven in the back result: Economical total damage. My V40 was the “best car I ever had (7 years) I stay true to Volvo of course and got me another one. A V60 BJ2013 D2. A nice car, is actually fully satisfied, but…. Since I got it (12.2017), I had to refill 3 x cooling water already. It is k If the indicator indicates “low coolant level, safe to hold”, then the cooling water level is clear (1-2cm) under min. I open the lid, then the level goes over Max, even if the car has cooled down 24 hours. That means it is really pressure in the cooling system. If I then pour in a good 250-500ml, after a short drive the water level between Min and Max. After a good 1000km I am then again under min. I have a lot of fun. Be read a lot about “Loss of coolant” but nowhere found yet what about a D2 (only D3-5) Does the D2 in my series also have “Motorproblem? If so, how does Volvo feel about it? Since there is absolutely nothing to be seen about leakage, I also suspect a “Motorproblem” (head gasket, crack in the block, engine evaporates cooler water, etc.) Has someone here ever had such a thing in connection with a D2. Thanks for every feedback.

  • Towing operation: PDC and 2nd indicator in the cockpit at the V70 ?

    Moinsen Bande, once asked for a short time, because I was a bit irritated. I always had a 2nd flasher indicator in the V70 II with attached trailer which flashed with it, thus always the certainty everything correctly connected. Now I also equipped the successor with a Westfalia so far the Jaeger electric set… 1. no 2nd flasher indicator 2. the stupid PDC beeps itself to a wolf as soon as the reverse is in it. Questions thus: to 1: does the really no 2nd anzeigen? to 2: has the still someone m it nem Jaegersatz? and a 3: Did someone with VIDA turn on the PDC so that it is switched off on ignition and is only used manually if necessary?

  • Automatic passing beam V70

    Hello, I drive a Swedish Volvo V70.Bj 2006,163 hp 2,4D. I would like to turn off the daytime running light. This is connected to the dipped-beam automatic ! So far I am. In the manual it says that the workshop can do that. Can I do this myself ???? Thanks for the help

  • Stupid beating from the front…

    Moin moin, so for a change I have a little problem… Was for a while nothing more and now it became time again… At extremely warm temperatures from 27 degrees or when the car stood long in the sun etc., I have a dull blow from the engine room. As if you have a loose exhaust and with every small floor shaft the exhaust is hit. Strangely only after the repair it was bomb-proof again. It does not move and in the Kardan tunnel where the exhaust goes long is also n It is also not to be heard at speeds from 60km/h and strong waves of the ground. Much more in the slowly viscous traffic and even with mirror-smooth road (asphalt) a stick on the road is enough to shake the car and this beating is to be heard. So loud that it is already animally annoying. Does anyone know this perhaps??? I would also like to say that it comes from the middle of the car. Therefore, I close the direct suspension of the chassis (coupling rods). etc.). Is it perhaps the lower engine bearing??? Greetings pseudo R

  • Heat exchanger leaks?!

    Hello, my V70 has been annoying me for some time with creeping cooling water loss. Cause is not clear. Now it turns out that cooling water accumulates under the carpet driver side. If I understand this correctly, is there something leaking on the heat exchanger of the heater, right? If I am right the following questions: 1. How can I put the loss in the footroom? Does not use the heater or do I have to let off the cooling water (do not put on the car) 2. How can I remove the water or dry it best? Is there a drain plug or should I make a bore? 3. What can be exactly defective? Heat exchangers or connecting plates? How can I find out. Does anyone have a repair manual? Where is there a low-priced replacement? Thank you for your help!!! Many greetings Stephan

  • tailgate doesn’t stay up

    Hello, the tailgate with my Sweden doesn’t stay up. Now that it’s colder it’s coming down right now. What can I do? Why doesn’t the 850 have a gas pressure lifter? Or are they hidden in the side bars? Has any of you ever built in? Have still those of my old 240 he. How do I get the wash nozzle from the tailgate. The nozzle is closed. Water is on to the back. Have opened the small flap on the right handle and removed the hose from the connector. full water power. Nothing comes out of the nozzle. Thanks for your tips.

  • 850 runs only on 4 cylinders

    Hello. Have a 850er, 2.5 L, 20Ventiler and the following problem: 3 weeks ago he ran only on 4 pots. New spark plugs (Volvo), new distributor runner and cap (Bosch) and discovered during removal that a spark plug at the lower edge of the insulator was broken. After the replacement he purred like a kitten. After 1500 km only on 4 cylinders again, this time the first does not run with. Spark plug was completely added, other candle and ignition cable from my part carrier was converted, no change. Ignition coil can’t really be when only one cylinder strikes? Distribution cap and runners look good, kei crack, nothing loose…. Does anyone have an idea?

  • Volvo 850 2.5 Stuttert and Ruckelt when starting up

    Moin together, I have the problem with my 850er 2.5 20V that it starts when starting especially at low speed (starting in traffic jam or stalling traffic) properly shakes, shakes and stutters. only when it turns over the 2000er brand the problem is not and if I let the clutch grind extremely. It has already been installed a lot new with the car: What is still missing is the coolant temperature sensor. Interesting is also (no idea if it belongs together) if i ch with 100 On the train ride then the engine does not really stutter but when I drive with 120 / 130. Then the whole car is at vibrating and it comes partly lame out ́m Quark. Has it again the speed he needs he pulls like sow. The workshop is simply overwhelmed and wants to take the car apart completely to just look. Of course I didn ́t want that. What obviously is the upper engine storage defective (the holding arm and the small rod the I hope you can help me there or at least point a direction in which I should look so much.. Then maybe I’m not an arm before an error has been found.

  • Tyres on Persus rims

    Hello first to all. Was not long here but bought me again a Volvo. Is a 850 TDI 220 tkm run and automatic. All top. But now to my problem. I wanted to buy me 2 new tires because the car has to get a new main inspection. There are Persu rims mounted. On the rims are 205/50 R 16 87 W. But also on the spare wheel of 1996, that is still the first. In appearance the rims are unfortunately not registered. But according to the release of Volv o must be mounted 88 H tires. Axles he has yes 1090 kg. A tire in 87 has a load capacity of 545 kg. Isn’t that enough? The thing is that the car never had 88 he tires on it. Have talked to the previous owner, since the car is 1 hand. MFG Tillmann
